Bi-directional integration with Adobe illustrator (Ai) allows designers to remain focused on creative tasks in their familiar design tools, whilst seamlessly capturing and updating critical style information directly into VisionPLM right from inception. Key information includes, images, size charts, Bill of Materials (BOM), Critical Path and Sample requests.

Key benefits

• Improve creative focus and reduce designer’s admin.
• Accelerate product development and sourcing by providing visibility of key information at the earliest stage of process.
• Leverage existing material and product information using libraries and search functionality.

Dedicated and flexible module for managing the entire material development process, including lab dips, approvals, costing, specs, sourcing and critical path. Material Requirement Planning (MRP) allows consolidation of material demand while material supplier profiles provide a high level comparison of potential raw material and trim suppliers considering, Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs), lead time, costs, etc. for better purchasing decisions.

Key benefits

• Drive material development, approvals and sourcing to meet overall plan.
• Consolidate material requirements and priorities across multiple departments improving purchasing decisions.
• Provide material suppliers with early visibility of requirements and priorities improving on time deliveries.
• Early warning of potential issues across multiple styles and fast ‘swap out’ of materials.
