e-PLM is part of a Product Lifecycle Management system
that increases speed to market and facilitates collaborative
global communication. e-PLM enables companies
to organize and share common business processes and product
information with design, product development, planning,
engineering, manufacturing and sourcing suppliers around the
world.
To succeed in today’s global economy: companies must deliver the
right products to market, at the right time and at the right
price. These challenges are intensified for fast-paced sewn
products companies, where short product lifecycles and thin
profit margins are commonplace.
To survive in these highly competitive markets, savvy retailers,
brand managers and manufacturers have extended their supply
chains to leverage the best available mix of raw materials,
labor, and product expertise from around the globe. In this era
of product innovation and sourcing, sewn-products companies face
a new and greater set of challenges as they must:
| |
• Enhance
creativity and collaboration on new ideas |
| •
Efficiently define concepts and costs, determine
viability |
| •
Develop and deliver new products to market faster |
| •
Manage frequent changes across global supply chain |
| •
Track & manage critical timelines and supplier
relationships |
