Transform your sign production and installation process.

SignAgent Build is the product within our suite designed for the fabrication and installation phase. It bridges the gap between design intent and physical production, ensuring that what was planned is exactly what gets built. SignAgent Build licensing includes access to SignAgent Design.

Users typically include:

• Sign Fabricators: External shops that need to pull accurate data, artwork, and message schedules directly from the design phase.
• Installation Teams: Field crews who use the mobile tools to track progress and verify the placement of signs on-site.
• Design-Build Firms: Companies that handle both the creative and the construction aspects of a project in one continuous workflow.

SignAgent Build streamlines:

• Procurement: Simplifies the bidding and ordering process with standardized technical data.
• Production Tracking: Monitors the status of every sign from the shop floor to the final install.
• Quality Control: Allows for photo-documentation and sign-offs to ensure installations match the approved plans.

Yes, SignAgent streamlines takeoffs by allowing users to import location plans, perform sign counts, assign unit costs, and generate estimates directly in the platform. The process integrates with project workflows, from initial takeoff states to design and fabrication, improving accuracy and profitability. The iOS- and Android-compatible SignAgent Mobile app enables field surveys and real-time takeoffs, adding data to your cloud-based sign database instantly.

SignAgent's fabricator script (available via Adobe Exchange) processes folders of exported SVGs, streamlining files for production. The fabricator script arranges artwork onto artboards, consolidates layers, and supports CMYK/RGB modes. The resulting merged Illustrator documents can be saved and exported in any format Illustrator can handle, including PDF, AI, and EPS.

No, the fabrication script is not intended to create specification drawings, therefore it doesn't include measurement call-outs. If you want to store specification drawings in SignAgent, you can upload them to the sign type in PDF format.

Fabricators can export clean, production artwork directly from SignAgent, but Build goes further by supporting how fabrication teams actually work day to day.

Signs move through a kanban-style workflow, making it easy to see what is queued, in progress, fabricated, or installed. Fabrication status can be updated per sign, improving visibility and communication across the shop, project managers, and installers without relying on emails or spreadsheets. SignAgent build even includes unlimited licenses to SignAgent Mobile, so that your installation is fully equipped when they are in the field.

Fabricators can also use SignAgent's fabrication scripts to extract specific layers, dimensions, and elements from each sign based on material or production needs. This ensures consistency, reduces manual cleanup, and helps teams move from approved design to fabrication faster and with fewer errors.

Everything stays connected to the project, so changes, approvals, and production status are always clear and up to date.
