MatrixOne, Inc. announced that the company will be a silver sponsor of the Apparel Tech Conference, hosted by the Fashion Institute of Technology on November 10, 2005. MatrixOne will showcase the MatrixOne® Accelerator for Apparel Design and DevelopmentT at the conference.
This industry-specific, rapidly implemented PLM offering has been optimized based on MatrixOne's track record of helping product design companies solve the challenges specific to the fashion industry. The MatrixOne Accelerator for Apparel Design and Development is a comprehensive, commercially available solution that provides "out of the box" industry data models and schema, pre-defined work processes and reports, as well as role-based user interfaces to speed deployment and ease user adoption. This solution is built on top of MatrixOne's PLM platform and business process applications to provide scalability, performance and the flexibility to keep pace with today's business environment.
"MatrixOne's PLM solutions allow apparel design companies to quickly react to changing styles and market demands dictated by the seasonal nature of the industry by imposing structure and discipline throughout the entire design and production process," said Kurt Andersen, vice president of industry solutions for MatrixOne. "Savvy apparel companies recognize the benefits of PLM. By efficiently improving communication of specs and designs, these companies are getting products to the consumer faster than the competition."
The MatrixOne solution offers broad and robust library management capabilities for organizing information such as colors, fabrics, trim, build instructions and other key elements to assist in reuse, standardization, collaboration and access control across the extended enterprise. In addition, capabilities for product design and planning, product costing, and strategic sourcing are included to encompass all aspects of the apparel design, development and production lifecycle. The MatrixOne Accelerator for Apparel Design and Development is now commercially available.
