AGCO 5-STAR DEALER STANDARDS

AGCO 5-Star Dealer StandardsThe AGCO Visual Identity Programme presented here is a key part of the AGCO 5-Star Dealer Standards Programme, introducing a consistent, identifiable image for all of AGCO brands’ dealers.

The minimum standard of Visual Identity for all of AGCO’s partners in the EAME markets is to have an approved version and installation of the Fascia and Totem, and also to display the flags of the AGCO core brands represented. This will be a 1-Star requirement.

To ensure consistency of this programme for all of AGCO’s dealers, brands and markets in EAME, AGCO will work in partnership with a single supplier within the whole region.

Please note that to ensure qualification for the AGCO 5-Star Dealer Standards programme in future, the correct version and installation of the AGCO Visual Identity will be required.

Other AGCO Dealer Standards versions of Visual Identity installed (e.g. 2009 Programme or later)

will also qualify for the 1-Star Standard but these will be gradually replaced or updated according to a local market plan subject to the installation date and conformity to the relevant standard programme.

These Visual Identity Guidelines also include information and recommendations linked to best practise and to the achievement of other Standards e.g. Premises and Customer Satisfaction.

AGCO logotypesAGCO, Your Agriculture Company, is a premier manufacturer of agricultural equipment, providing high-tech solutions for professional farmers feeding the world. The company is dedicated to delivering superior customer service, innovation and quality. AGCO products are distributed in more than 140 countries worldwide.

The tagline solidifies AGCO’s role as a leading player in the global agricultural marketplace. By focusing on “Agriculture” as an industry, AGCO seeks to underscore its strategic role in shaping the future of agriculture through innovative equipment and technology solutions. The tagline is an integral part of the brand and should not be removed from the Corporate Logo.

The logotype on this page is the main version of the logotype. Use this version whenever possible.

Always reproduce the logotype from digital master artwork. Never allow the logotype to be redrawn, reset or repositioned.

The AGCO standard logo is designed to print in two colours. The symbol is PMS 187C and the text is black. The standard logo has no background and is to be used whenever possible.

• Do not change the colours of the logos.

• Do not typeset or re-draw the logotype.

• Do not modify the logotype or any of its parts.

• Never use the logotype as part of a sentence.

• No frames or other visual elements are allowed within the free space round the logotype.

• Never place any text within the free space.

• Do not stretch the logotype.

AGCO brands colourshere you will find the colour definitions for AGCO brands colours on this page. The definitions show how the correct shade is produced in different colour systems, such as Pantone Matching System (PMS) for print applications or RAL for powder coating. Stickers and the digital environment also require colour systems of their own.

The use of the colours is specified for each AGCO core brand separately. Check that the application being produced meets with these colour specifications regardless of the colour system used. Use the Pantone colour book as a reference. Do not give permission to start production before you have made sure that the colour shade is matched against the correct AGCO brands colours.

Background colours for the Visual Identity elementsTo ensure required visibility for the AGCO brand logotypes, sufficient contrast must exist between the logotype and its background. Additionally, special attention should be paid to the background colour and its role in creating the correct brand image. The examples here show the most common ways of usage as well as some incorrect background/logotype colour combinations.

AGCO typographyThe primary typeface is Univers. It is used for headings, subheadings and captions in literature, as well as tables, slides and small sections of continuous text. Signage, stationery, adhesive lettering and stickers are also produced using Univers.

As an exception, the helvetica typeface replaces Univers on web pages.

Use the typefaces with normal spacing. Do not expand, condense or otherwise distort them. Univers and Times are available for word processing and other in house publishing systems on both Apple Macintosh and PC platforms. While AGCO staff and dealers worldwide are covered by our software licence, do not copy font files for external use.

Page 14: AGCO Brand Guidelines

Permitted Not permittedDisplaying brands and dealer identityIn order for both AGCO and the dealers to retain their own distinct identities, the dealer logos and logotypes must never be combined with the AGCO brand logotypes. In matters involving AGCO, always use the AGCO identity as shown in these guidelines.

There are separate instructions on how to combine the AGCO logotype and the name of the dealer or the authorised service provider on stationery and other applications. They have been designed in a way that enhances the co-operation between AGCO and its respected partners. Please refer to brand own guidelines.

The most important thing to observe is that all identity elements, AGCO’s as well as other suppliers, should be introduced only after both parties know exactly what is being done and agree to the arrangement. In addition to the minimum requirements dealers can choose their desired AGCO visibility level using the matrix on the following page.

Exterior / MatrixAn independent dealer who sells and represents AGCO brands should confirm AGCO’s and its main brands sufficient prominence in their identity. Minimum requirements are the fascia, totem and flags. Also the road signs are an important element if the main building is not located near the main road. Fascia is situated to the facade and if the dealer has multiple facades then it is justified to have the fascia in all of the facades.

These Guidelines have been produced to provide information to AGCO’s partners regarding the Visual Identity Programme and the process for ordering.

Fascia, illuminated insideThe fascia illuminated inside is the recommended version and the illumination type for the fascia and totem should always be the same. It is required that the fascia is situated to the facade which has the main entrance to the dealership. The brands represented must always be shown in alphabetical order, from the left to the right i.e. Challenger, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra.

There are various sizes of fascia available for different sizes of buildings. A survey by the AGCO appointed supplier will determine the correct size and location of the fascia.

Alternative fascia for large brand panelshere is an example how to use alternative brand elements on the facade above the fascia element. The brands represented must always be shown in alphabetical order, from the left to the right i.e. Challenger, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra.

The alternative brand elements’ size will depend on the space available above the fascia element. When using the alternative brand panels, the brand

2.2 ALTERNATIVE FASCIA2 FASCIA

panel height must always be greater than the fascia height. Alternative brand elements can be illuminated inside or outside.

A survey by the AGCO appointed supplier will determine the sizing of all elements, reliable planning and construction in every case.

AGCO totemsThe most important element is the totem, which provides a prominent and distinctive visibility of AGCO and the AGCO brands. There are two totem size variations available: 4500mm high and 3000mm high. The totem illuminated inside is the recommended version in either size and the illumination type for the fascia and totem should always be the same.

The function of the brand panels is to identify AGCO brands in the locations where they are sold. The brands represented must always be shown in alphabetical order, from the top down i.e. Challenger, Fendt, Massey Ferguson, Valtra.

If the dealer doesn’t have all of the brands then the empty panels will be in the colour of the frame.

3 TOTEMS

EXTErior

Page 22: AGCO Brand Guidelines

FlagsThe flag is usually the most visible and cost-efficient element which is why it is required to be situated in all possible locations.

Always use the latest version of the brand flag available from the respective brand marketing department. Make sure all AGCO and AGCO brand flags are the same format.

Regarding the use of the flags, see matrix on the page Exterior / Matrix.

5.1 AGCO COMPLEMENTARY BRANDS

AGCO complementary brandsAGCO complementary brands i.e. Laverda, Fella in EAME can be added only where the number of core brands represented means that there are empty panels in the totem and these must always be at the bottom. The AGCO complementary brands must always be below the AGCO core brands on the totem. On the fascia the complementary brands will be added to the left of the AGCO core brands. AGCO core brands will always take priority.

Tractors on the yardIt is important that machines are in good order, clean and well presented on the yard. Tractors should always be parked on a hard standing area e.g. tarmac. Each AGCO brand’ s machines should be located distinctly to give a strong visual image of the brand. Where possible, use ramps to raise the height of the profile model tractor.

InteriorThe interior of a sales outlet is designed to enhance the customer’s positive perception of AGCO and AGCO core brands. In addition to the colouring and the layout of the premises, a good image is upheld by keeping the store tidy and clean. The customer subconsciously registers such facts upon entering the premises.

The shelves beside the walls are tall and in the centre of the space max 1500mm high. This way the customer can view the whole space easily and the space feels open and airy.

AGCO specialist support programmes are available for rural goods and parts.

Interior / MatrixAn independent dealer who sells and represents AGCO brands should ensure their sufficient visibility also in the interior identity.

Shown on the right is an example of interior layout. Example brands are Fendt and Valtra. They are positioned apart from each other so a strong image of both of the brands is achieved.

It is easy for the customer to navigate in the space and find particular brands service they are searching for.

Each AGCO brand has its own visual elements such as posters, connected flags, brochures, as well as brand collection products like caps, overalls, miniature tractors, t-shirts, etc. Be active and inquire about these image building products and elements. A strong brand image can be built with them.

The matrix on the right defines the minimum requirements for the visibility of the brand.

An example shows how to layout the shop area. NOTE: Keep a clear view of counters and products.

Interior / ColoursThe overall ambience of the interior should be light, airy and well-lit. Recommended interior colours are:The walls are light grey, silver or white. The floors, shelving and shelf ends are silver and the furniture light grey. Light grey is also used for low cupboards and other furniture as well as glass display boxes.

The materials and the structure of furniture can be chosen according to needs. Ideally, the interiors should be similar in all outlets within the same region or market area. The materials should be easily maintained.

These interior decoration instructions are ideally put into practice when existing premises are being renovated or new premises built.

Wholegoods sales areaThe Dealer actively promotes all of the AGCO core brand products they represent by means of display, advertising and by arranging working product demonstrations locally. Although some wholegoods sales transactions take place away from the dealer premises, a designated area for sales and product discussions should always be available for customers when they visit their dealer, including an office for confidential discussions and for administration.

The sales area and machines on display are well presented and clean.

2.2 COUNTERS

CountersThe overall colouring of the counters is grey. An overhanging grey canopy is used to create the impression of a place dedicated to a certain purpose, whether collecting information or finalising a purchase. Sales literature can be prominently displayed on the counters. The counters should be kept free from fixed items such as posters, stickers and other elements that do not belong to the structure.

Core parts sales areaMost AGCO core parts are sold from the Parts Counter (See Subsection 2.2 Counters). Where customers can pick the items they need themselves, the parts should be stocked neatly, easily identified or plastic boxes should be used to keep the items from getting mixed up. Such boxes are available in various shapes and sizes. Please make sure the colour of the boxes is consistent, grey colour is recommended. Never display AGCO parts in boxes whose colour is outside AGCO’s brand colour. See page 2.1 AGCO brands colours (Basic elements) for more information on colours. Shown here is an example of a Genuine Parts sign to reinforce to customers that AGCO PARTS is the genuine parts range for each of the AGCO core brands.

Shop-in-ShopThe Shop-in-Shop concept is primarily for AGCO’s core brand merchandising products.

When the customer enters the shop, AGCO products should appear as a unified and representative collection that is separate from other items sold in the dealer and can be easily identified. The shelves are grey. The top panels of the shelving are branded.

Products are displayed in such a way that they appear tidy and attractive.

hard wood or metal covered worktops are practical and hard wearing. Workshop wall and floor materials and colours should be robust, oil resistant and provide a light, practical working environment which is easy to clean. Cleanliness and order convey professionalism and build trust in the care provided to a customer’s machine. Special tools, should be on tool boards and oils and large equipment should be stored in designated areas.

Large posters of products, technical features, and brand logo panels can be added to the workshop environment to reinforce professionalism and brand identity.

4.1 VISUAL COMMUNICATION IN CUSTOMER FACING AREAS

Visual communication in customer facing areasVisual communication elements should be used in all customer facing areas to communicate offers, product information, and AGCO brand and dealer news and events. Customers can also be reminded about AGCO programmes e.g. Customer Satisfaction surveys, or to provide information that would help the dealer to communicate with them more effectively e.g. e-mail address and mobile number.

Types of communication media include:

• DVD operating in waiting area e.g. demonstrating new product features

• Brand and Dealer Newsletters• Product brochures• Posters• Desk stands• Information stands next to tractors

AGCO 5-Star Dealer Standards certificates awarded should be prominently displayed.

Page 62: AGCO Brand Guidelines

Visual communication in dealer internal areasVisual communication can be used in dealer internal areas to inform and communicate to the dealer’s own staff regarding AGCO, AGCO brands’ and dealer internal information for all functions together or by function in separate locations. Examples are AGCO processes, key timings such as order submission, and dealer performance tracking e.g. sales versus objective. Visual communication may also include photographs of how internal areas e.g. conference area, tool boards, should be maintained, health and safety information, current customer offers, and dealer events.

ONLINE VISUAL IDENTITY

AuTuMN 2011EAME, DEAlEr, vErsion 1.0

Page 65: AGCO Brand Guidelines

IntroductionAGCo have created these guidelines to ensure correct presentation of the AGCo core brands’ visual identity on the dealer’s own web site. The online visual identity Guidelines simply apply the principles of the main visual identity Guidelines to the online environment, primarily regarding use of the AGCo core brand logos (logotypes). This is particularly important on the dealer’s home page where there may be many other brand logos represented. included also are some ideas to help dealers with recommended page hierarchies, layouts, and for recommended key navigation links to other information of the dealer and of the AGCo core brands.

The volume and speed of electronic communications is growing at an exponential rate and many of AGCO’s customers now search online for information before visiting their dealer. Typically a customer will visit a dealer’s website by:1. Typing in the URL directly e.g. if seen in an

advertisement2. Entering a browser search for the dealer name or

brand and location3. Enquiring in an AGCO brand Dealer Locator

having key information available will make the customer’s dealer visit more efficient and productive, having for example: directions, hours of opening, stock lists, special offer information.

A well planned dealer website can therefore increase customer visits and dealer sales opportunities.

The design basics presented here will provide a consistent approach for all AGCO partner’s web sites, regardless of the number of AGCO core brands held, and can also work together with the dealer’s other brands on the dealer home page.

Once the web site is created the dealer should ensure its accessibility by always displaying the URL address in dealer advertising and other customer communication.

1 INTRODUCTION TO ONLINE VISUAL IDENTITY

Search engines should be able to find the web site better by successful search engine optimisation (SEO). The dealer should ask their local web agency to optimise the site by chosen keywords as well as doing an on–page SEO. Using web–standards is recommended which also improves website accessibility and usability.

Services such as Google AdWords and Analytics are recommended.

2.

Each AGCO core brand logo should have a hyperlink to a dealer’s own page for the brand.

AGCO brand guidelines for dealers’ websitehere is an example of a dealer’s homepage with common content areas indicated which should be clearly displayed: 1. Dealers name or logo (also few links area

possible in this area) 2. Main navigation area (access to all content) 3. Main content area 4. Footer area (dealers contact information and

other general information) AGCO brand logos are mainly presented in the content area where also other brands may be presented. They should be equally displayed and clearly apart from each other.

It is recommended to clearly display contact information, other brands and services, opening hours and possibly a map showing the location on the homepage.

The AGCO brand logotypes in this example represent the original files to be used on dealer’s website. They are available in jpeg and png -formats and in various sizes (elements with rounded corners are optional).

The amount of textual links to AGCO’s brand websites will help improve search engine visibility. The dealer website should therefore contain relevant text with hyperlinks to the brand’s website. Logotypes on the dealer’s homepage should include hyperlinks that navigate to the dealer’s page for that brand.

1 ELEMENTS

Quality of the AGCO Visual Identity elementsMaterial visual quality and robustness, together with correct positioning and installation are extremely important to consistently convey the correct image of AGCO and the AGCO core brands. Image consistency will promote a higher profile for our business, and associate also with the quality of our products and the professionalism of the dealer’s own business. Together with our partners we have developed a programme that delivers this consistency: a modular solution using quality materials, and with the support and installation processes of a leading global provider of corporate identity programmes. For a cost that is competitive with earlier versions, we have developed products that are illuminated inside and longer lasting through

using better materials. Please note that the installed cost includes an on-site survey, drawings, bespoke fascia design and production to match the building, all packaging, transport, installation, electrical connection and testing.

Additionally the AGCO Visual Identity programme includes online image management for visualisation and agreement of the project by the dealer and by AGCO before progression and on completion, always ensuring adherence to the AGCO 5-Star Dealer Standards requirements.

The design and installation process will be handled together with AGCO’s partner with minimum administration or business disruption for the dealer.

2 MATERIALS

MaterialsAGCO, working with our designer and expert partners, have selected a composite material: DIBOND, for the construction of the elements of the AGCO Visual Identity Programme. Below is a comparison of the properties of DIBOND and Aluminium (AlMg3).

DiBonD AlUMiniUM

Material high Strength and plane surface

Less Mounting

Straight Angle of Bend, Radius +/- 1 mm

Large Elements possible without bracing

No corrugation, temperature resistance

Aluminium leads to visible screw joints for the Totem and visible welding on edges and fronts.

Even when magnesium added has less rigidity by external factors

Aluminium can be disrupt during the edging

Larger edging radius = Radius >2mm

Larger elements must be braced + therefore visible welding

Corrugation when using large elements

Deflection due to own weight

Cracks can appear in lacquering

Stiffness Surface stays smooth and plane, for fascias and totems

Large elements possible without stiffening

When jolted the impact is hardly visible

Corrugation when using large sizes

Deflection of structures due to own weight

When jolted the impact is visible in the lacquering and cracks will appear

Temperature Resistance

Due to sandwich-setup the material is temperature-resistant from -50˚ up to +80˚. (Material was successfully developed for building facades, e.g. Epcot-Center, Florida

Without stiffening on the back, material will corrugates during high

Temperature and these deformations will remain

Colours are often not protected against ink fade

Surface Treatment

Baked enamel finish of PVdF 70/30 or DURAGLOSS 5000

Deep metallic colours and gloss degree from 3 up to 80%

high UV-resistance, shade in colours, consistent and flexible surface

Powder coating mostly polyester

Upset after angle of bend otherwise the surface will break

Small cracks can be visible on the edges

Orange peel can appear

Less adhesion

Lacquering Protected through primer Raw, unvarnished

Transport Protection & Cost

Protected through protective foil (80μ un-transparent persistence) during the whole working process, from storage until the end of installation

Transport cost lower

Unprotected during processing, storage, transport and installation

summary

The AGCO Visual Identity Programme emphasises a high quality, consistent visual identity with the mandatory elements: totems and fascias having large surface areas. For this purpose DIBOND is a highly recommended material and has been selected by AGCO for the Visual Identity Programme.
