Abstract

This technological report describes the intervention carried out in a company that operates in the consulting and solutions sector for color management in several market segments.  The opportunity identified was to meet the new demands for lighting systems, which emerged in companies in the graphic industry in Brazil, mainly caused by legal and technological changes.  The methodological procedure adopted was the proposition of Marcondes, Miguel, Franklin, and Perez (2017) to define and implement strategies based on innovation in technology and services in search of differentiation that would generate competitive advantage, creating value for customers.  The intervention resulted in the transformation of a risk scenario for the economic sustainability of the business into a profitable and promising perspective, with an impact on the company's relationship with its customers, promoting an increase in market share with positive financial results for the business.  Thus, we describe a concrete experience that integrates models developed in the academic world with situations applied in the business environment, dealing with the complexity of issues related to market contingencies and the skill required in commercial relations.  By following scientific methodological guidelines, it is expected that your report will add knowledge to management technology and make it subject to replication in equivalent situations.
