At the IMB Forum, Pascal Denizart, Lectra's PLM Director, explained how companies can use product lifecycle management to boost performance and profitability. "The adoption of PLM allows fashion companies to improve their collections development processes, synchronize their resources and workflows, develop products in real time, and improve and guarantee quality."
With constant acceleration of collections and more frequent personalization of models, fashion professionals must overcome new challenges while guaranteeing the quality of product design and development processes.
Lectra propose complete, innovative, world-renowned solutions to manage textile design, to create collections, to preserve color integrity, and to rapidly manufacture all types of garment patterns.
The fruit of eight years of development - and previewed at the 2006 IMB - Lectra's 3D virtual prototyping solution will enable fashion companies to shorten lead times and reduce development costs while facilitating collaborative work and decision making between all involved participants.
Associating 2D patterns, fabric information and 3D virtual models, this solution will enable simulation and validation of styles, fabrics, motifs and color ranges; it will allow pattern designers to check garment fit in various fabrics and sizes. Furthermore, it will reduce the time and cost of product specification and validation processes by reducing the number of physical prototypes required.
