Follow Up Flag: Follow up

Due By: Tuesday, April 10, 2012 3:00 PM

Flag Status: Red

Good Day everyone,

The procedures below are for receiving visitors at the FRTIB. Following them will help visits to the Board 

go smoothly for everyone.

Please email or call me with the guest's name, company/agency, and the date and time of 

expected arrival. It would also be helpful to add an additional p.o.c. in case you aren't available when 

they get here.

I will email security downstairs with the above information. This cuts down on security having to spend 

time typing in this information while the visitor waits. When the person arrives, his or her identification will 

be verified against the name on the list, and he or she will be asked to wait.

I get automatic emails for each visitor as they arrive and check in downstairs. At that time, I will call you to 

let you know your guest(s) are waiting and you will need to go get them from the first floor lobby*. Please 

note this change: *visitors have to be escorted by one team members to the 10th floor. Once on the 10th 

floor, have them sign in at the receptionist's desk and get a visitor's badge. 

Please do not take your visitor(s) to the 11th floor without stopping to have them sign in.

A final note... the receptionist's desk is officially a No-Frown Zone. Only smiles allowed!

Thank you for your cooperation. 

Receptionist 
