Victorinox Apparel, a renowned high-quality clothing brand for the modern adventurer, faced significant challenges in its product design and development process, causing delays and inefficiencies. Seeking solutions, the well-known organization engaged MetaExpert, Simone, to analyze the process and propose improvements.
MetaExpert, Simone, conducted in-depth interviews with the design, merchandising, and product development teams. It became evident there were no standardized processes or systems in place. Each team member maintained their own files and as a result, needed to communicate constantly about any changes that took place causing doubled efforts and wasted time and energy.
Simone identified the need for centralized and accessible data to improve collaboration and efficiency. Additionally, reports needed to be generated automatically so each team member could be abreast of changes and updates.
Simone implemented a Product Lifecycle Management Software to streamline communication and data processes.
Victorinox experienced tangible improvements in time efficiency, reduced turnover costs, enhanced collaboration, and better product development. The investment in the PLM software and process optimization delivered a substantial return on investment.
