  1. TAKING NOTICESafety and Well-being Information Boards.Project Update Feb 2014 Project Team: Natasha Gates, Ben Hadman Health and Safety Department

  2. The current situation… • Signage and information appears untidy. • Specific signage/information is hard to find. • Safety information has been joined and masked by non-statutory fly-posting. • No document controls • Entrance foyers/current notice boards look un-organised. • Creates a negative impression and arrival aesthetic to users of the building – doesn’t appear to look finished or professional.

  3. Summary • Tired looking • Information is uninspiring, lack of engagement • Reinforces an outdated ‘brand’ image • No user metrics • Fails to align or compliment a digital transformation • Current Statutory information requirements are outdated and disconnected

  4. Concept • Working with David Aicken, Bank Design, Brighton. • Mock-ups and a prototype board in Exion. • To eventually have an information board in every building. • To compliment the current way-finding signage; • Develop a ‘Safety and Wellbeing Way-finding’ approach • Create engagement through improved branding and the use of technology

  5. Various locations

  6. The Information… • The information inserts contain way finding to a wide range of safety, well-being and other information. • The boards can be used for occasional campaigns. • Current inserts include: • Fire Safety • General Safety • School Safety Laboratory rules • Occupational Health • Smoking cessation/Breathe campaign

  7. Alternatives! • Digital Televisions -Statutory Information cannot be displayed/accessed on a TV screen -Ownership of TV’s and conflicts -The costs of designing the digital adverts -The display of information is always rotating -The energy costs associated with running the television screens are high

  8. The Boards… • 1cm Acrylic, with an eye catching design and bright background. • 6-8 A4 insert pockets to contain information inserts. • The information inside the board can be regularly alternated. • Easy to clean.

Quick Response Codes and NFC Tags • Quick Response Codes -Two dimensional barcodes developed by the automotive industry, they have been incorporated into commonplace, everyday marketing strategy. -The code can be scanned using any smart phone and takes the user to various webpages to provide them with further information. • Near-Field Communication Tags -Wireless technology which allows for the transfer of data between an NFC enabled phone and NFC sticker tags . -500 million mobile devices with this technology although not Apple devices. • Shortened URLs (uob.uni.me/example) Short alias to save typing full length address into mobile device. Provides analytics, such as hit rate counts.

  19. Future of the Project… • Phase 1 – Pilot the project in Exion and Huxley. Gain valuable feedback and experience from the pilot and exploratory phase. • Phase 2 – Consult with Stakeholders/Project Board and finalise the details, Information Inserts and positioning of the boards; based on the feedback received from the pilot. • Phase 3 - Review the success of the Information Boards; determine whether the project has been effective. • Phase 4 – Produce boards for all buildings in Moulsecoomb, Grand Parade, Eastbourne and Hastings based on the project board meetings and consultation with Stakeholders.
