What ASI | Signage Innovations does

ASI | Signage Innovations (legal entity ASI Sign Systems, Inc.) is a privately held custom architectural signage company founded in 1965 and headquartered in Grand Island, NY, with its Global Branding Services operation at 8181 Jetstar Drive, Suite 100, Irving, TX. The firm executes design-build signage programs — managing projects from initial consultation and site assessment through design, permitting, production, installation, and post-installation reorders — via its proprietary SignPlan™ process. It operates five regional offices across the United States (Irving/TX, New York City, Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Los Angeles) and serves a diversified enterprise client base across healthcare, education, hospitality, multifamily, corporate, cultural, religious, and government sectors.

The company's core offering spans custom architectural signage, wayfinding systems, donor recognition solutions, environmental graphics, ADA-compliant signage, and digital signage, delivered through in-house manufacturing that includes lasers, routers, engravers, printing devices, and UL-approved electrical sign fabrication. ASI maintains a proprietary product portfolio of branded series — 3D Form, LPP, LTV, Legacy, Horizon, Venus, PAP, ID Screens, Puzzle™/Jigsaw™, Reflections, PerForm, and InTouch — and a Global Account Management System that stores existing signage specifications and site surveys to support multi-site rebranding and reorder programs. Workforce is 251-500 employees and the firm is led operationally by Bethany Bernatovicz (Owner & Founder) and Michael Sisler (Director of Global Accounts).

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time project-based contracts with enterprise clients (with individual projects ranging from hundreds to thousands of signs, e.g., 8,000+ signs at Gaylord Pacific, 4,000+ signs at Caesars Superdome), supplemented by recurring reorder revenue through an online ordering platform and ancillary professional services revenue from AIA continuing education courses. Pricing is project-specific and quote-based; financial figures are not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales combined with channel relationships to architectural firms (HKS, Trahan, BWBR, Perkins+Will, Eskew+Dumez+Ripple, Sasaki) and general contractors (Mortenson, McCarthy, LEMOINE, KPRS), supplemented by an award-winning SignStudy portfolio, AIA continuing education, and a verticalized social media presence.
