Product lifecycle management (PLM) solution provider PTC announced that Liz Claiborne Inc, a leading designer of fashion apparel and accessories for women, men, teens, children and infants, has standardized on PTC Retail, Footwear and Apparel Solution for enterprise product lifecycle management.
The solution leverages the power and scalability of Windchill, PTC's web-based product data management and collaboration solution, to enhance the product development process in the retail, footwear and apparel industry.
The retail, footwear and apparel product development process is complex and companies are challenged to reduce time-to-market and product costs while improving product quality and information exchange. Liz Claiborne required a solution that would optimize its product development processes to support its transformation to a highly integrated supply chain development model.
PTC Retail, Footwear and Apparel Solution will help Liz Claiborne to enhance global product development by improving value chain collaboration throughout the product lifecycle. One of the most significant challenges in the global product development process is managing and controlling access to product data and imagery. This is especially important when a company collaborates on designs internally, as well as with suppliers from around the world.
John Sullivan, Senior Vice President of Systems, Sourcing and Service, Liz Claiborne Inc said that the business landscape in which they operate is changing dramatically, and they are adopting aggressive strategies and global infrastructure investments to drive future growth. Implementation of PLM based technologies will enable a more agile, collaborative and integrated product design and development process across the entire value chain.
