A scalable web-based solution that brings merchandisers, designers, sourcing managers, vendors, suppliers and retailers together to share a single version of product, trim and fabric information has been launched by Fashionware Solutions Inc.
The online tool, called Fashionshare, enables apparel companies to merchandise, plan and design product lines, manage individual colours and seasonal palettes, source fabric and trim, and communicate all relevant information across their entire organisation and supply chain.
Requiring no onsite software installation, Fashionshare runs on virtually any computer capable of accessing the Internet.
Fashionshare was developed under the direction of Paul A Friedman Ph D, a 25-year veteran of New York? fashion industry. Paul most recently served as executive vice president for his family? global outerwear business S Rothschild & Co, where he gained hands-on experience in virtually every aspect of the product lifecycle including design, patternmaking, product development, manufacturing, importing, distribution, and information technology.
Friedman said: ?n today? business model where people issues and product are at centre stage, our company? mission is to provide the apparel industry with a software solution that covers all stages of the product lifecycle in a comfortable, highly visual, and concise way.?nbsp;
Fashionshare can be used as either a standalone front-end solution or as a companion to traditional ERP systems.
