Freeborders Hosts PLM User Conference

Freeborders recently held a PLM User Conference for their clients to share best practices on the Freeborders' PLM Suite. The meeting also served as a forum to introduce PLM 4.0, the latest Freeborders product, prior to the product's general release later this year.

  International companies attending the user conference included representatives from Ptex Solutions, India; Key-Work, Germany; and The Peacock Group of the United Kingdom. Domestic companies such as Michael Kors, The J Jill Group, Christopher & Banks and The Apparel Group were also among those in attendance.

"Hosting conferences such as this enables our clients to share their best practice achievements with one another, as well as simply having an open environment where they can speak directly," said Debbie Baldini, Managing Director of Freeborders Retail Practice. "We believe the key to providing a great product is to hear what our customers think, and learn from these experiences moving forward."

Attendees were grateful for the opportunity to create a user community and share ideas. "It was a wonderful experience to gather so many PLM users from across the globe, under one roof," said O.P. Bansal of ITC, India.

The PLM User Conference also provided a forum at which several Freeborders' partners announced major initiatives. Ptex Solutions, a partner with Freeborders based in India, announced that ITC Limited, one of India's largest conglomerates, has selected Freeborders Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution to streamline all apparel product development activities, from concept to delivery.
