BRIEF
The product development team was working against each other which meant a high risk for a successful development of the collection in time. There was a need of aligning timing, process and responsibilities. Further the process needed to be supported by a PLM system to secure all relevant data and a single source of truth.
SITUATION
Initially no PLM solution was used and there was a big need of the implementation to support the product development process. After a restructruring measure the product development team was lost in their processes and the responsibilities were not clear. A PLM solution was picked and the implementation project was ready to start.
