PIM implementation: efficient processes, better product data, sustainable solutions

Your success with PIM - transformation for a digital future

The quality of product data is a decisive success factor on the market today, and Product Information Management (PIM) systems are indispensable in this respect. But the introduction of PIM software alone is not enough - success lies in the holistic transformation of processes, organization and IT architecture. forbeyond accompanies you on this path and ensures a smooth and sustainable implementation.

What is important for a PIM implementation

A PIM implementation affects comprehensive processes in your company

The implementation of a PIM system affects numerous areas of the company and requires precise coordination between processes, systems and departments. One of the biggest challenges is to network all relevant workflows and adapt existing structures.

In addition to technology, the focus is on roles and responsibilities

In addition to technical integration - such as the connection of interfaces, the harmonization of different data formats and the migration of existing product information - organizational changes must also be taken into account. Responsibilities must be clearly defined, new processes established and teams trained accordingly so that the PIM system can be used effectively.

Data governance and data quality ensure the success of your project

Another decisive success factor is data quality. The full potential of a PIM system can only be exploited with consistent and well-maintained product information. It is therefore essential to analyze and prepare existing data and establish clear governance rules for its management.

PIM implementation must be proactive

In addition, the introduction of a PIM system must be planned for the long term - it should not only meet current requirements, but also be able to react flexibly to future developments, new sales channels and international markets.

Our approach: Holistic support for your project

As a specialist management consultancy with extensive experience in the management of implementation projects, we support you in the introduction of your PIM system and the transformation of your organization. In doing so, we not only consider the technical integration, but also the optimization of the underlying processes and workflows.

Strategy and coordination

We develop the overarching strategy, define clear objectives and ensure that all project strands harmonize with each other and are geared towards the overall success of the implementation.

Operational control

We monitor schedules and budgets, prioritize tasks and ensure smooth communication between all parties involved. In this way, we minimize risks and ensure that the implementation stays on time and on budget.

Requirements management

We record and analyze the specific requirements for the PIM system and ensure that these are implemented completely and precisely.
This is done in close cooperation with the specialist departments involved.

Change management

We guide employees through the transformation process, develop training concepts and organize workshops to promote the acceptance of new processes and technologies and ensure sustainable integration into everyday working life.

Test & quality management

We ensure that the PIM system and all associated processes are comprehensively tested before implementation. In doing so, we identify potential weaknesses and optimize them in a targeted manner to ensure the highest quality standards. In this way, we ensure smooth commissioning and long-term stability.

Risk management

We analyze potential risks at every stage of the project, develop preventative measures and respond proactively to challenges. Our structured risk management ensures that potential problems are identified and addressed at an early stage so as not to jeopardize the success of the implementation.

Data governance

We establish clear rules and responsibilities for the management of product data. Through effective governance, we improve data quality, ensure consistency and create the basis for the long-term success of your PIM system.

Whether project management, product owner or test manager - we fill gaps in your project organization.

Complex digitalization projects such as the introduction of a PIM system require clear management, methodical security and interdisciplinary expertise. However, there is often a lack of internal capacity to deal with these challenges efficiently.
