Lectra, the world leader in software, CAD/CAM equipment and related services dedicated to the fashion businesses, presented its complete, innovative offering for design, development, production, and product lifecycle management at its 1,000 square-meter stand at the 2006 IMB show.
This international event held May 10-13 in Cologne, Germany, drew 25,000 visitors from 115 countries who discovered the latest technological advances of the fashion sector.
The Lectra offering is the result of more than 30 years of experience in the fashion market and a deep understanding of fashion processes. It responds to the challenges of fashion-sector professionals by enabling them to anticipate changes, manage the collections development cycle, create and develop products, and optimize production.
Today's fashion companies face major challenges, including the multiplication of product lines and the expanding number and geographical dispersal of the various players involved in collections development.
Specifically developed for the fashion markets, Lectra's PLM offering allows companies to shorten lead times and reduce costs associated with the conception of products in a context of permanently renewing collections. Providing continuous decision-making support, it rationalizes and improves the reliability of product development processes, and assures the synchronization and traceability of information flows. In addition, it optimizes the collaborative modes used between contractors and suppliers.
