Industry-specific challenges and complexities
In addition to the universal challenges of talent management, financial excellence, and streamlined business operations, companies active in textiles must tackle specialized obstacles and business processes, such as:
- Constantly-shifting fashion trends
- Coping with multiple variants of the same type of product
- The demand for smaller lot sizes
- Serialized stock of rolls (length- or area-based)
- Availability checks and order planning based on dye/yarn batch
- Impossibility to produce exact quantities: over- or underproduction are common
- Subcontracting
- Flexibility during outbound shipment
Digitization and automation are changing textiles
Digitization and automation through a centralized IT system can provide you with the production insights to design flexible production cycles, shave off inefficiencies, optimize stock and more – leading to that competitive edge necessary for differentiation and success in the digital age.
