Business cards
KIT provides its employees with business cards in the obligatory KIT design if required for business purposes.
- Business cards can be ordered in German, English or German/English.
- In the case of a monolingual business card, it is possible to have a QR code with the contact details generated on the back.
- The business cards can also be printed with the logo of the respective OU.
- Third-party logos (external partners, associations, etc.) are not permitted.
Ordering process and costs
- Standard business cards are created via an input mask on the intranet. After clicking on the link, you will be asked to enter your KIT account (e.g. xy1234) and password.
- After logging in, personal data from SAP is stored in the mask. You can still make changes to it. If you are ordering business cards for superiors, please also log in with your KIT account and then overwrite the data accordingly. (Exception: cost center)
- The details on the business cards must be agreed with the respective head of the organizational unit (OU) before ordering and take governance into account.
- For special cases that cannot be created using the input buttons, the media design team is responsible. These services incur costs of 35 euros for the design.
