Out with the old and in with the new might be fashion’s mantra, but that’s a lot easier said that done. With every collection comes hundreds, if not thousands, of SKUs but so few ERPs support companies in handling this volume.
Are you really surprised?
Most ERPs don’t even really help fashion companies with season management all that much, so how are they meant to support creating products in different styles, colours, and sizes?
It gets worse…
ERPs fail at such a fundamental level that more two-thirds of fashion companies have to adopt third-party tools to fill gaps in their core system.
And then there’s sustainability.
If dealing with clunky systems wasn’t enough, you also have to deal with mounting pressure from consumers and governments to do better.
