The Challenges & Need

When a new marketing director came on board at Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza, it was discovered that the signage company the property management company was using had not only lapsed in their performance and execution of projects, but had delivered a product that did not meet the standards expected by the new director. Baldwin Hills Crenshaw Plaza needed new signage quickly due to new store openings and ongoing events that were scheduled to roll out. At the time, the current signage company could not meet the needs of the marketing director and the director turned to Tandem Exhibits by Presentation Media to deliver the solution he needed.

The Solution

The Tandem Exhibits team met with the Marketing Director to review the mall’s signage needs and timeline for delivery. The team developed the artwork and coordinated the timing of installation based on the mall’s needs. The turnover was quick and the Tandem Exhibits team personally delivered and installed the signage to ensure that the tight deadlines were met and expectations were exceeded.

Testimonial

“Mall management was extremely pleased with PMI’s exemplary work. Customers and retailers have remarked on how great the signage looked. Attendance for the Zumba and Cardio Kick classes were 40% above projection for the first class and escalated by 15% every week after. This is highly due to PMI’s eye catching designs.”

The West Basin Municipal Water District is a local water agency and provides tours of its El Segundo water recycling facility.

The Challenges & Need

Tandem Exhibits was presented with several challenges. First, West Basin needed large interpretive signs that could:

• Be viewed by 25 guests at once
• Be easily moved at a moment’s notice
• Display 3-dimensional equipment props

Second, West Basin needed a solution that could withstand a harsh and salty coastal environment.

The Solution

Guiding West Basin through the whole process, our team at Tandem Exhibits by Presentation Media designed a durable signage system that included a heavy duty frame and footings attached to sturdy utility wheels. A shelf for resting educational props and water jar samples was included in the design. In addition, Tandem Exhibits designed three portable outdoor interpretive signs that could move dependent upon operational needs, and could withstand the harsh coastal weather conditions.

Testimonial

“Signage materials were of highest quality and have proved durable…signs have lasted for four years and still look fresh. Michael’s design work is always carefully thought out exploring all possible options and he is great on his follow through on production and delivery schedule.”

The Challenges & Need

Tandem Exhibits was charged with creating a free-standing graphic depicting the history of Aerospace Corp’s 50th Anniversary. It was to be displayed at one of the satellite offices and would require display hardware that was to be easily assembled, lightweight, and compact in order to easily ship the final product. In addition, it would need to be durable in order to be displayed multiple times at a variety of events throughout the year.

The Solution

The Tandem Exhibits by Presentation Media team recommended utilizing a retractable banner to display the large graphic in three separate panels, set up side by side. This solution allowed the display to meet all of the requirements set forth by Aerospace Corp. In addition, the graphic could easily be removed from the display hardware and another graphic installed, allowing the set-up to be used repeatedly at minimal cost and maximizing results.

Testimonial

“The short turnaround and solution presented by Tandem Exhibits were of great benefit to the project. The graphic banners were printed, packaged and shipped to the Aerospace requester on time for the 50th-anniversary events. The brand of hardware specified was of better quality than what had been used previously by the company and will get continued use, resulting in future cost savings.”
