The new sign design

All UiB buildings are scheduled to have new updated signs with the new sign design by 2016. This is done in accordance with a replacement plan (pdf) and sign manual (pdf).

The replacement is a collaboration between the manager in charge of the signs at the Estate and Facilities Management division and contact persons at the relevant units.

The replacement of signs in accordance with the replacement plan is ordered and financed by the Estate and Facilities Management division. If there is a need for new signs in own areas following this replacement, internal signs shall be financed by the relevant unit. Signs in the entranceway and outside the building are financed by the Estate and Facilities Management division.

Office signs

As the office signs in the buildings are gradually replaced with the new design, the employees themselves shall print out name tags for the signs. This is done by logging in to the sign database, selecting "Door sign text", and following the instructions in the database. The name tags are printed out onto an ordinary A4 sheet.
