B. PROJECT SCOPE OF WORK
1.
INTERIOR TASKS
a.
The Environmental Graphic Design firm will review the existing room numbering
system and advise the medical center if it needs to be replaced. If the existing room
numbering system is "broken", the Environmental Graphic Design firm will
develop a new room numbering system for all rooms and all floors of the selected
medical center/clinic. This room numbering system is one that is to be directed
toward visitors and staff. Proposed options for new room numbering system will
be reviewed with facility Engineering and Interior Design.
b.
The Environmental Graphic Design firm will design and program an interior room
identification sign program. This will involve programming and sign location plans
being prepared for all of the room identification signs throughout the selected
medical center/ facility. This will include a complete sign message schedule
identifying each sign, its message and its type. Sign location plans will be prepared
showing the placement/location of the signs.
c.
The Environmental Graphic Design firm will design and program a life safety,
code and regulatory sign program. This will involve programming and sign
location plans being prepared for all of the regulatory, code and life safety signs
throughout the selected medical center/facility. This will include a complete sign
message schedule identifying each sign, its message and its type. Sign location
plans will be prepared showing the placement/location of regulatory, code and life
safety signs.
d.
The Environmental Graphic Design firm will design and program a directional
wayfinding sign program. This will involve programming and sign location plans
being prepared for all of the directional signs throughout the selected medical
center/facility. This will include a complete sign message schedule identifying
each sign, its message and its type. Sign location plans will be prepared showing
the placement/location of directional signs.
e.
The Environmental Graphic Design Specialist will develop a report identifying
architectural, interior design and communication problems at the facilities that
need to be changed and improved to provide better identification, circulation and
communication of services for patients and visitors.
f.
The Environmental Graphic Design firm will develop the design scheme for the
"look" of the interior sign program. The design will generally define the various
types of signs that will be used throughout the project along with issues of image,
materials and finishes, type style and layout, and color. Terminology, names and
titles, flexibility of the system, form and scale, and legibility will also be
considerations in developing the design scheme. The design documents will
identify material finishes, trims, sign construction, installation and other design
details. The documents will include elevation drawing of each sign type with
applicable size and layout dimensions and any necessary side, top and back views.
