MODERN CUSTOMER-ORIENTED TECHNOLOGIES: GUIDELINES FOR PROJECT-BASED ACTIVITIES IN PRINTING COMPANIES

Abstract

The article examines modern technologies for ensuring customer orientation in a printing company operating under conditions of digital transformation and increasing competition. It is determined that traditional models of production organization, focused on standardized processes, no longer meet contemporary market requirements, where clients expect personalization, interactivity, and transparency of communication. The necessity of implementing innovative solutions such as variable data digital printing, CRM systems, online cabinets, AR/VR technologies, environmental practices, and colour management systems is substantiated. It is shown that variable data digital printing provides personalization of each copy, creating a unique experience for the client and increasing communication efficiency. CRM systems enable the collection and analysis of customer data, the formation of individual offers, and the maintenance of long-term relationships. Online cabinets and web ordering contribute to the transparency of processes and convenience of interaction, while AR/VR solutions and QR integration create a new level of informativeness and interactivity of printed products. Eco-technologies, in particular the use of recycled materials and water-based inks, form a positive image of the company and correspond to contemporary social expectations regarding sustainable development. Process automation and colour management systems ensure stability of quality and speed of order fulfilment, which is critically important for the printing industry. The article emphasizes that the comprehensive implementation of the specified technologies in combination with a project-oriented approach allows printing companies to effectively adapt to market changes, satisfy individual client needs, and build long-term loyalty. The results of the study indicate that customer orientation in modern printing is not only a technological process but also a strategic direction of development that ensures sustainable competitive advantage and stable development of enterprises in the twenty-first century.
