Printed stationery
Printed stationery - letterheads, compliment slips and business cards - are printed exclusively by approved external printing companies. These items work in tandem with a set of Microsoft Word templates installed on BAE Systems PCs.
Information required when ordering
Letterhead: the printer will require the Operating Group/Business name, site address, telephone and fax number, and registered company details, if you know them. If you want to show which section of the Operating Group/Business you are a part of, eg. 'Hawk', then you simply type 'Hawk' under your signature at the end of your letter, while 'Air Systems' would be printed with the site address at the top of the letterhead.
Compliments slip: the printer will require the address, telephone and fax number
Business card: the printer will require name (as you want it to appear on the business card, including any required qualification abbreviations), job title, Operating Group/Business, address, telephone, mobile and fax numbers, and email address. Information on which qualifications and accreditations to include is given in the section of the Brand Standards available to download from this page. The urls on the business card should always only be www.baesystems.com - url extensions such as /india are not allowed. If printing in two languages, use both sides of the card.
For more information
The above information is only a summary of the Brand Standards in this area, which also contains information on franking and email signatures. Please download the relevant Brand Standards section and any templates or files from the Downloads box on this page. All internal or external communications require corporate sign-off prior to production by your Brand Champion - you will need to allow enough time for this to take place. Any further questions should be directed to Selina Henry, Communications Services Coordinator. Find her details on Managing our brand in the top navigation.
