01. Project Context
One Network, Many Different Signage Conditions
Reece Group’s Tasmanian store network included ageing signage in varying conditions. Some elements had become structurally unsafe, while others no longer met the presentation standard expected across the network. The challenge was to create a practical long-term strategy that improved safety and consistency without replacing every sign.
Different sign types and repair requirements at every location.
Safety, presentation and brand consistency across the network.
A staged programme aligned with operational and budget priorities.
02. Audit, Refurbishment and Delivery
Start with a Complete Audit, Then Stage the Work
Network-Wide Site Audit
Arcom visited each Tasmanian location to document sign condition, measurements, photography, safety and maintenance requirements.
Repair or Replace
Recommendations separated refurbishment from replacement, identifying priorities and where existing signage could be retained and renewed.
Prototype and Approval
A prototype site established the upgrade standard for client approval before the broader programme progressed.
Longer-Life Finishes
Anti-graffiti laminates, wrapped vinyl edges and improved detailing were used where appropriate to reduce deterioration and future maintenance.
03. The Outcome
A More Stable Network, Managed as a Long-Term Asset
Statewide
Coordinated signage improvements across the Tasmanian store network
Staged
Prioritised work around condition, safety, budget and operations
Improved Presentation
A more consistent standard across locations strengthened the presentation of the Reece brand.
Safer, Longer-Lasting Signage
Unsafe elements were addressed while refurbishment and improved finishes extended the useful life of existing signage.
More Predictable Maintenance
Centralised documentation and a staged plan reduced reactive maintenance and gave the client clearer cost and programme visibility.
