The updates include:

  1. Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) for fashion: Infor’s PLM solution helps fashion brands make informed, sustainable decisions. This tool aids fashion brands in designing and developing new collections and styles while assessing costs, materials and environmental impacts.
  2. Infor Nexus supply chain network capabilities: These offer fashion brands greater transparency and control over their global sourcing supply chain. The Infor Nexus network provides additional visibility into the supply chain, including “plan to ship,” carrier routes, automated advanced shipping notices (ASNs), and invoice processing.
  3. Merchandise and assortment planning partnership: These streamline planning processes and accelerate deployment with pre-configured, customisable templates. In collaboration with Foresight Retail, Infor’s CloudSuite Fashion now offers financial planning, assortment planning, forecasting, inventory allocation, and replenishment support in a single platform.

Infor president and CTO Soma Somasundaram explains: “The innovations that we are delivering with our October release will enable customers to boost agility, leverage data-driven insights for improved decision-making and get access to industry-specific solutions out of the box.

“They are designed to help customers automate business processes, achieve business results faster and pave the way for business transformation.”
