The value of integration: PLM for fashion

Using TXTPRODUCT in synergy with TXT's solutions for demand, production and distribution planning and for supplier and subcontractor collaboration, creates added value for customers.
Creative processes are integrated with supply chain processes. The lifecycle of fashion products can therefore be managed end-to-end, from product innovation to sales (Product Lifecycle Management).
By bridging innovation and supply chain, PLM offers a double advantage; on the one hand, it makes it possible to start planning activities even before the product is completely defined and on the other, it enables quicker reaction to the market in terms of innovation.

Tight integration with the TXT WorkFlow Management solution makes the innovation process faster and more reactive under continuous supervision from the management.
