Abstract

Printed communications continue to be indispensable in Customer Communication Management (CCM) for industries such as banking, insurance, and retail. Traditional printing and mailing processes are labor-intensive and error-prone, leading to delays and increased operational costs. This paper presents a detailed theoretical analysis of a novel, end-to-end architecture that integrates barcode technology into the entire printing and mailing workflow. By embedding unique barcodes on each document and automating scanning and IT integration, the proposed system minimizes manual intervention, enhances tracking accuracy, and significantly reduces costs. We provide a comprehensive discussion of the working principles, present a circular flow diagram to illustrate the continuous process, and analyze the theoretical benefits in terms of throughput, error reduction, and cost efficiency.
