Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.9 s · 710 KiB32 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (710 KiB).
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Mobile performance score: 70
70/100Your mobile performance score is 70. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
450 ms · 184 KiBAbout 184 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
450 ms · 86 KiBAbout 86 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
500 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 500 ms).
Main-thread work: 2.4 s
A phone's processor spends 2.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 640 ms of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 long tasks on the main thread
8 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 164 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
3 third-party services on the page
3 third-party services load with your homepage (TrustArc, New Relic and mPulse), adding 132 KiB and 140 ms of main-thread time.
Improve image delivery
150 KiB5 images could be 150 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Legacy JavaScript
9 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 9 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Minify CSS
7 KiB7 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Server response: 54 ms
54 msYour server sent the HTML in 54 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Speed Index: 14.1 s
14.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 14.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Real-user LCP: 2.9 s
2.9 sReal visitors wait 2.9 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.4 s
2.4 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.4 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.7 s
1.7 sReal visitors wait 1.7 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 3.9 s
3.9 sYour largest element takes 3.9 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “VOC 2026”.
Time to Interactive: 5.3 s
5.3 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 5.3 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Total Blocking Time: 311 ms
311 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 311 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
7 images without width and height
7 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+9%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 135 ms to 145 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) got 14% slower for real visitors
+14%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 2.2 s to 2.5 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
2 checks passed
Real-user CLS: 0.00
0.00For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.00 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.015
0.015The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.015, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
hero-banner-voc2026.png.webp is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image far larger than shown
29 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example WUpMDmJvULM_maxresdefault.webp at 1,280 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 29 KiB.
3 images below the first screen load straight away
3 images further down the page (94 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.33 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.33 g of CO₂e: 39.8 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.2 MB in 47 requests
1.2 MBYour homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 47 requests on a phone: scripts 472 KiB (8), images 328 KiB (23) and fonts 259 KiB (7). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
ARIA tab nodes must have an accessible name (4 elements)
ARIA tab nodes must have an accessible name: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Interactive controls must not be nested (4 elements)
Interactive controls must not be nested: 4 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Links look like plain text
2 links inside paragraphs rely on colour alone to stand out.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element (8 elements)
ARIA role should be appropriate for the element: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (5 elements).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 15 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
51 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 51 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Structured data has 1 problem
Structured data found (WebPage) but with 1 problem, for example “WebPage: breadcrumb is an empty list”.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
Open Graph partly set
Open Graph is missing og:title and og:description, so shared links fall back to guesses.
96 internal links, 5 external
The homepage links to 96 pages on obsglobal.com and 5 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 136 characters
Your meta description is 136 characters: “CGI is a global IT and business consulting services company. Our dedicated professionals in Canada serve as trusted, in…”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “CGI in Canada”.
Title: 48 characters
Your title is a healthy 48 characters: “IT and business consulting services | CGI Canada”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.cgi.com/canada/en-ca.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.cgi.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (921 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.cgi.com/llms.txt (16 KiB, 77 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
9 links to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 9 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example https://www.cgi.com/canada/en-ca/artificial-intelligence, whose canonical is https://www.cgi.com/en/artificial-intelligence. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.

Content and conversion
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No phone number on the homepage
A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
No risk reducer
