Model/ Hardware: 

Compass 42" Digital Wayfinder, ID.FS.SS.42, running Envent Cloud

Gap Analysis: 

Westmead's new Acute Services Building opened onto an already sprawling, well-established campus. Health Infrastructure needed wayfinding that did two jobs at once: give detailed, level-by-level navigation inside the new building, and still connect visitors back out to the existing A-J blocks and the wider campus.

Most wayfinding systems pick one scale and do it badly at the other. Westmead needed both to work from day one.

Project Summary: 

Envent was selected by Health Infrastructure as the preferred wayfinding partner for WSLHD. The brief covered indoor digital directories for the newly built, multilevel Acute Services Building, plus high-level wayfinding out to the existing Westmead Hospital A-J blocks and external campus buildings.

The deeper integration, detailed indoor wayfinding across all A-J Blocks, was scoped as a 2023 follow-on phase. Hardware was the Compass digital directory line, running on Envent Cloud.
