With over 40 components per dress, overseeing numerous raw material suppliers for each item of clothing was getting difficult. We had to ensure that everything was properly coordinated and there were no errors
- In order to manage the intricacy of each unique style, our client required a Product Lifecycle Management system (PLM) to set up formal procedures and standardize tech pack data. Additionally, they sought to increase communication and product development transparency.
- The ability of Pollux Software to demonstrate how inconsistent processes could be improved, the team's responsiveness, and the quick time-to-value of Pollux SMB, a cloud-based SaaS solution for small and medium-sized businesses, made us stand out.
- Pollux used a time efficient modular approach which meant ease of implementation and less involvement from the client team
- Operational excellence was ensured via Pollux, which became a single source of truth in a central data repository with well-defined procedures and nearly error-free tech packs.
As per the client - “The cherry on top was Pollux's extensive background in the fashion industry. It became clear that the Pollux team is well-versed in fashion. We could tell that they had experience working with other businesses that faced comparable seasonality problems and product development obstacles because they spoke the same language as our designers and production crew. We believed that our product category made sense for the solution, and Pollux's SMB is incredibly user-friendly. “
Our customer now boasts precise tech packing, PLM data management, and grading. With a category like women's clothing, and even more so with our client's special materials and design style, the crucial element is the high degree of accuracy needed as new fashions are introduced in a variety of sizes.
The PLM was used to digitally construct essential workflows. With all product data in one easily accessible digital location, email and spreadsheet product development are becoming obsolete, leaving no doubt about the most recent versions of anything.
