AI Adoption in the Printing Industry: A FVM perspective

Abstract

Despite its application in high-profile areas, AI's utilisation in the print manufacturing sector is still scarce. Competitiveness and advances in this sector urgently require higher value-added processes, including digitisation, incorporation of advanced manufacturing technologies, and efficient resource utilisation. This paper outlined challenges in organisational adoption of AI demands systematic assessment of the fit and viability of software implementations in heterogeneous, concurrent, and integrated systems while accounting for the performance, efficiency, stability, and sustainability of the sector. We develop a working framework for further assessment based on multiple theories and case studies, with particular attention to the Fit-Viability Model (FVM).
