In 2011, LEDC sought to create a brand new primary website to replace one developed in 2005. It wanted a website that catered to site consultants, real estate professionals and lay people looking for data. EDSuite, an award-winning website development firm, won the contract. In turn, EDSuite referred Bastian to LEDC. She was then hired to provide editorial assistance by writing/editing content and providing advice on navigational elements. Bastian’s research activity included a one-day fact-finding trip to Lindale as the guest of LEDC.

In Oct. 2012, LEDC won a global Gold Excellence in Economic Development Award for this new website BPR helped create.
