After PLM: SRM, PIM and the digital product passport
Audio narration · listen first
The information of an approved product does not stay in PLM. The tech pack and BOM flow to the supplier through SRM, product information flows to sales channels through PIM, and composition and origin flow to the passport, all without being retyped.
In this part
- You tell which question PLM, SRM, PIM and ERP each answer.
- You explain why a piece of information should have a single owner and why information typed by hand in two places becomes inconsistent.
- You follow how composition, origin and care information is born in development and carried to the passport.
- You see how, in a global team, your record reaches a factory and a sales team in another country.
