Collaboration and availability of information is essential for fashion and apparel companies in order to get the right styles on the market at the right time. Manual tasks, information silos and difficulty to find trustworthy product information leads to inefficient product development and longer lead times.

The answer to this is a Product Data Management (PDM) solution. It helps you centralize and structure your product information, and helps keep your product development process neat and tidy.

Centralize your product data

The built-in PDM system in TRIMIT replaces the need for spreadsheets with professional tech-packs, and manual processes with pre-defined workflows. It centralizes all your product information, and like the rest of TRIMIT it is accessible from anywhere on any device, making it the ideal travel companion when visiting suppliers.

The solution offers advanced features, such as material libraries, bill of materials, measurement charts, cost calculation and margin analysis, and comprehensive reporting tools, all designed to enhance your product development process.

Using the Workflow functionality will help you keep visual track of your progress, and easily identify styles or processes that need attention.

The PDM system in TRIMIT can also capture sustainability information, and you can drag and drop files like certificates into the style information.

PDM built into your business solution

The PDM system is fully embedded into TRIMIT and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, combining the strengths of all into one powerful solution. This unique combination ensures that all data flow seamlessly between people, departments and locations without the need for integrations.

You can create new styles in seconds, using the style creation wizard which allows you to create not only PDM information but all the data needed throughout the business solution.

A centralized hub for managing your product data will greatly increase productivity, and it will help reduce the negative side-effects from having information stored in too many different systems.

Already have a PDM system in place? No problem. TRIMIT also works with other PDM solutions and ensures that the PDM data ends up in the right places so that people can access it from the business solution.
