3FM is a signage manufacturing, installation, and design company based in Omaha, Nebraska. We specialize in architectural, ADA, wayfinding, and environmental signage for commercial, industrial, and construction projects across the country and internationally.
A significant portion of our work supports large-scale data center and infrastructure projects, where signage can involve thousands of unique signs across highly complex facilities and campuses. Our team works across the full process - from planning and design through fabrication, production, installation, and project coordination.
We’re a hands-on company that values quality, problem-solving, accountability, and strong communication. Our projects are often complex, fast-moving, and highly collaborative, giving our team the opportunity to work on meaningful projects that are very different from traditional sign-shop work.
3FM continues to grow by taking on larger, more technically demanding projects while maintaining the flexibility and practical mindset of a smaller company.
