Take advantage from the integration with Tex Design, Adobe Illustrator, Coral Draw and many others…
Take advantage from the PLM Crea integration with over 12 sketching software for clothing and manage the entire collection design directly from the PLM. In this way the communication between the design department and the pattern making department will be improved in a very sensitive way. Crea Image Server offers a complete and automatic way to modify file formats so that your sketches or images can be available to all the players in the supply chain involved. By accessing a central archive of colors, designers are given the opportunity to develop ‘pallets’ of reusable seasonal colors for fabrics, garments, accessories and other elements. The same can be done with the textures, the accessibility and modifiability of colors and textures in their respective folders allows the company to easily create variations on the fabrics of the garments and to modify, even in the most advanced stages of the product, and with a few clicks, an entire theme of the collection if not even an entire production line by adding or removing from the collections one or more colors, one or more styles.
All patterns data in your tablet, prototypes approval with a click
Draw in the CAD Create environment while remaining directly connected with the PLM. Build the patterns database, fabrics master data, multiple size charts for intermediate and qualitative product controls thanks to complete integration with pattern making CAD, displaying the patterns created directly by the PLM.
It is also possible to approve or modify the patterns thanks to the virtual fitting with 3D CAD, moreover you can capture the images of the products during the fitting and make an immediate request for fitting in just a few clicks.
Forecast the sales with real-time data
The Crea Solution Merchandising Plan analyzes and makes comparisons of sales data from previous years (divided by season, product, geographical area, collection, department, line and many other personalized criteria) to align the strategy with performance objectives and estimate sales in extremely realistic way.
Once the strategic objectives have been defined, the PLM Merchandising Plan Crea Solution will separate these objectives for different clusters for a more organic planning that also includes financial and image objectives.
Once the Crea Solution Merchandising Plan is set up, it will simulate sales based on real and continuously updated real-time data.
Analyze and track all product samples
Through the Crea Solution PLM dashboard it is possible to track the progress of prototypes and samples through the perfect synchronization of all the info. This allows effective communication with every single company department.
Simulate costs, carry out consumption calculation forecasts and get the Target Price
The definition of costs is important from the beginning in the product development process. Thanks to the amount of data that the PLM Crea Solution manages, it is possible to automatically estimate the cost of a pattern during its development so that pattern makers know beforehand the economic effort that a certain item or line will entail and eventually operate in order to hit the ‘target price’.
The Crea Solution pricing platform integrated in the PLM is able to automatically generate constantly updated price lists with currencies from around the world and based on various infinite criteria such as lines, models, geographical area, area code, color variant …
Every company has different needs and for this reason Crea Solution is able to customize the pricing platforms based on all the criteria that are necessary for the customer to determine prices.
