Convincing Promod of the importance of implementing PLM
Presentation 👋
Promod is a French women’s ready-to-wear brand, founded in 1975. The brand stands out for its commitment to a robust internal information system, while striving to modernize it. The brand aims to strengthen its market presence through two main strategic axes: the development of its collections via an upstream merchandising tool, and the expansion of these collections through the use of a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) system. Our Fit Retail consultants were called in to help secure this project.

“Attached to the IT department, with functional expertise, I was able to easily recreate the dialogue between the IT department and the business teams.
Working in tandem with the Merchandising Director and the product offer teams, we very quickly moved into project mode for the pre-framing phase, which was a guarantee of quality and seriousness for the launch of the project.” Veronique NEANG, Fit Retail Consultant
