Weissman recognized an opportunity to improve productivity, deliver seamless visibility across the vast volumes of product development data, and enhance and streamline collaboration with both suppliers and internal partners. Weissman selected NGC based on the company’s fashion industry expertise and its ability to provide a comprehensive solution, from product concept to customer delivery.
“We were impressed with NGC’s knowledge of fashion and apparel technology and the partnership and trust that was formed between our businesses,” said Dan Winders, vice president of sourcing, product integrity and QA, Weissman. “The NGC platform has quickly allowed us to address several of Weissman’s most pressing needs, including digital RFQs, cost sheets and sample requests. Digitalizing these processes has helped us accelerate decision making and drive greater collaboration.”
NGC’s digital supply chain platform will help enhance Weissman’s supply chain and support the company’s ability to deliver the quality merchandise its customers have come to expect. A few of these capabilities include:
