Digital Lifecycle Management for Fashion and Retail
Mendix’s Digital Lifecycle Management solution helps fashion and retail companies boost accuracy, efficiency, and productivity in both online and offline operations.
Designed for fashion and retail brands, the Mendix Digital Lifecycle Management low-code solution creates an end-to-end digital value chain that automates the entire design-to-sales process. This highly configurable solution can be tailored to your specific requirements, allowing you to move on from the flows of traditional fashion seasons.
Mendix for fashion and retail helps streamline the production workflow (ideation, planning, design, merchandising, development, sourcing, sampling, and manufacturing) while encouraging collaboration between all your stakeholders.
Material library
Easily configure and organize material types, track sustainability metrics such as CO2 emissions, and manage historical pricing per material and vendor.
Vendor management
This tool allows you to efficiently manage suppliers, contact persons, and factories. It also allows you to specify vendor types and manufacturing locations.
Color library
Organize colors into seasonal palettes or manage them by groups and colorways; integrate with Pantone for accurate color matching.
Bill of materials (BOM)
Use templates to prevent manual data entry and automate status updates on materials used. BOMs can be synced with Siemens Teamcenter for complete collection management.
Size management
Manage all available sizes and configure ranges per country or region. To ensure consistency, country-based templates for size ranges can be created.
Workflow
Develop and manage workflows with smart lead times and automated reminders. Automated risk highlights for collection delays help with planning to ensure timely deliveries.
Mass sampling
Request material and style samples in bulk and manage feedback directly in the system. This helps streamline vendor communication and improves the management of sampling requests.
Costing management
Automate costing processes based on templates and compare multiple vendors for cost efficiency. The grid view feature lets users easily find and compare costs across vendors.
Digital Mood boards
Digital mood boards use images, materials, and colors to create a narrative that guides product development and positioning, helping you make intentional and targeted commercial decisions.
Document management
Make version control and accessibility a breeze with a central repository for managing all product files, which offers automatic versioning and external app integrations like Google Drive.
Vendor portal
Through a configurable portal, vendors and manufacturers can access updates, submit samples, and receive real-time feedback. All they need is an internet connection.
Digital product design
Easily integrate Browzwear, Adobe Illustrator, and other 3D platforms to create a consistent design process that promotes cost-efficiency and greater collaboration with open API integrations.
Corporate social responsibility (CSR)
Track your suppliers’ CO2 impact and integrate sustainability data into the product lifecycle; integrate with external metrics like the Higg Index to ensure compliance.
