The second phase as planned will include system configuration to support seasonal planning, merchandise planning and business planning and will include sourcing/costing, vendor collaboration and interfaces into Appleseed's other business systems.
“We selected PTC because FlexPLM is the best solution that delivers out-of-the box capabilities that are key to the retail, footwear and apparel industry,” said Ron Beard, chief information officer, Appleseed's.
“Additionally, PTC worked very closely with our teams as a resource partner to create and implement a PLM plan that worked within our budget, avoided extensive customizations and delivered immediate measurable benefits. We look forward to continuing our partnership with PTC as we begin the second phase of the implementation.”
“Many retail, footwear and apparel organizations like Appleseed's need to maximize technology investments while minimizing their time and resources to get benefits from their PLM initiatives,” said Kathleen Mitford, vice president, vertical market strategy for retail, footwear and apparel, PTC. “FlexPLM was developed to deliver out-of-the-box capabilities and still be flexible and scalable to support the future PLM requirements of leading retailers like Appleseed's.”
