PTC, the Product Development Company announced that JCPenney, one of the nation's largest department store retailers, has selected the PTC Retail, Footwear and Apparel solution, FlexPLM. The PTC solution will provide JCPenney with a scalable solution to manage and control its product specification, improve collaboration among its global design partners and reduce overall design and manufacturing cycle times.

As a North American-based company with suppliers and offices located around the globe, JCPenney was looking for a PLM solution to meet its robust demands for global access to product specification information. JCPenney selected PTC FlexPLM because it offered the scalability to manage the global product data of the retail giant.

FlexPLM enables organizations like JCPenney to scale product development across multiple teams located in numerous geographical locations worldwide. FlexPLM delivers an intuitive set of automated tools in a unified user environment to streamline communication, track milestones, pre-empt performance bottlenecks and provide instant visibility of product development steps.

"JCPenney selected PTC to manage and streamline our process for our home office associates, our vendors and International Buying Offices because it delivers a best-in-class technology with a proven track record of PLM success in the retail, footwear and apparel market,” Jennifer Pritchard, director of cycle time reduction for JCPenney.

FlexPLM leverages the power and scalability of Windchill, PTC's content and process management solution, to enhance the product development process by providing a single source of visibility to key product information throughout the entire process from concept development to quality assurance.
