New York Wayfinding Totems
Ref: 3B 006.9
Trueform have brought the next generation of digital wayfinding to New York City with the contract award for the fabrication and installation of wayfinding infrastructure in Lower Manhattan, the Borough of Manhattan and New York City.
Prior to manufacture, Trueform were responsible for producing structurally checked and stamped, fully detailed 3D CAD manufacturing drawings.
The ‘pilot scheme’ for fabrication and installation of 160 of our wayfinding products was delivered in two stages. Initially, we manufactured prototypes and they were approved by Penta City Group.
Prior to manufacture, Trueform were responsible for producing structurally checked and stamped, fully detailed 3D CAD manufacturing drawings.
After the manufacture of the final products we have a four-step process to install the digital signs:
- Foundation installation
- Signage graphic artwork
- Sign manufacture, sophisticated graphics production
- Sign erection
As leaders in digital wayfinding infrastructure systems, Trueform carried out this work from our new service centre in Long Island, New York, to provide the required local presence and operating facilities. The depot is fully equipped for this contract on a 24/7 basis.
Following successful manufacturing and installation of the wayfinding signs, NYC DoT issued an addition to the contract to manufacture and supply 50 more Digital SBS Totems.
Trueform have successfully been awarded the next phase of wayfinding and will be working direct with NYC Department for Transportation with all manufacturing, production and assembly were fully compliant with the ‘Buy America’ Act.
