Digital Customer Experience


Background
So we know that whether you’re a consumer or a business, finishing a paint job correctly takes a lot of effort. Everyone from owners, contractors, designers, fabricators and applicators, plays a different part accomplishing a paint job and we want to offer them the best possible experience.
Opportunities
We are looking for (digital) solutions in the various steps that our customers experience during the entire paint process:
- Pick the right paint for the job, in time – e.g. color, functionality, viscosity, solid content, etc.; supply and demand alignment, product offering, customer interface
- Pick the right application methods – e.g. improve efficiency, reduce overspray, remote control (including drones), fast cure, low energy uptake
- Find the right person for the job – e.g. training programs, marketplaces
- Paint job accomplished – e.g. customer service solutions, loyalty programs
Let’s work together to bring new technologies and solutions to better serve our customers. We see opportunities in the following areas (but are not limited to):
- Immersive digital experience
- Consistent customer service
- Smart operations
