Standardize Without Sacrificing What Works

Mergers, acquisitions, and multi-site expansions promise growth—but they also introduce complexity.
For print and packaging teams, one of the biggest challenges is harmonizing color workflows across diverse equipment, cultures, and processes.
The goal? Standardization that protects what works and improves what doesn’t.

Why Consolidation Disrupts Color Control

Merged teams often struggle with inconsistent tools, training, and standards. Without a unified approach, color consistency suffers—and so does efficiency.

  • Why Standardization Often Fails

  • Harmonization vs. Homogenization

Why Standardization Often Fails Media

Resistance, Risk, and Legacy Systems

Standardization efforts stumble when they ignore the human element. Operators resist change when it feels like a loss of control. Managers worry about disrupting workflows that already work. IT teams face integration headaches.

Harmonization vs. Homogenization Media

Flexibility Within a Unified Framework

True harmonization means creating a shared framework that allows flexibility. With centralized color libraries, digital standards, and interoperable tools, teams can align on outcomes while preserving local strengths—and protecting margins.
