Industries — Councils and community

Screens in nine buildings, updated from one desk

A council’s screens are scattered across a shire: the library, the pool, the civic centre, a hall in the next town, the visitor centre. They all need current information and none of them has staff to spare. Signexa treats them as one fleet.

On the screens

What the community needs to know

Hours, programs and closures

Pool hours that change with the season, library programs, school-holiday activities, and the sign that says the hall is booked this evening.

Community notices

Consultations, roadworks, waste collection changes and events, pulled from a feed the comms team already publishes rather than re-typed.

Emergency messaging

Fire, flood or heat: one alert takes over every screen in the shire immediately, in language you have already approved, and clears when it is over.

Why it works here

Regional sites, honest about the network

The hall’s internet is bad

Media downloads to the screen before it plays, so a site on a flaky link keeps showing the right content instead of an error page.

Nobody drives out to fix it

Screens report their own health and can send back a snapshot of what they are showing. A fault at the far end of the shire is diagnosed from the office.

Built and hosted here by an Australian company, with a support number that answers in this time zone.

Start with the library and the pool

Two sites is enough to prove the workflow before it goes to a council report.
