Making PLM Work for the Fashion Industry
|
Product lifecycle management (PLM) for the fashion industry is taking off, but how is it best structured to suit the special needs of the industry? TEC's senior PLM analyst suggests a two-tier approach that features a business process layer and a supporting PLM technology layer. Find out how PLM can work for the fashion industry in today's feature article.
Today's feature blog post looks at how companies producing a limited variety of complex products—such as auto manufacturers—differ in their approach to PLM from fashion companies that produce a large variety of comparatively simple products.
If you're planning to attend next week's PLM Boot Camp '09 Virtual Conference, today's second feature blog post offers you three tips for making the two-day event a richer and more rewarding experience.
