PLM Software Helps Retailer Increase Efficiency
Parametric Technology has announced that Chico's FAS has selected its Windchill FlexPLM product lifecycle management software to harmonise operations across category, brand and department. By selecting Windchill FlexPLM across all of its brands, the company is demonstrating a commitment to increase operational and inventory efficiency and reduce product development time and production cost.
'When evaluating PLM vendors, we wanted software that was not only going to help us drive productivity and reduce costs, but we wanted a solution that was going to be easy to use,' said Krissy Blakeway, senior vice-president of design and product development at Chico's. The retail industry is currently facing a number of hurdles, including margin management/reduced product cost, inventory efficient and productivity. By implementing Windchill FlexPLM, Chico's expects to realise reductions in materials costs, cycle times and product development costs.
