Produkt Attribute Challenge
Operational hurdles and data discrepancies
The brand faced significant operational inefficiencies due to its product data being scattered across multiple platforms, such as NetSuite and various Excel sheets, requiring a complex and time-consuming data consolidation process. The existing system also suffered from a lack of a standardized data structure, where the same attributes were referenced differently across systems, leading to confusion and inconsistencies. This lack of uniformity in data structure impeded seamless integration and comparison across the brand's platforms, necessitating reconciliation of the same attributes.
Lösung
Centralized data management with Pimcore
To address the challenges of manually creating and enriching product listings, Beauty Works implemented Pimcore as a centralized repository, eliminating data duplication and enhancing accuracy. This shift to a centralized system streamlined the update and enhancement of product listings through a more intuitive interface and consolidated product data to ensure consistency and efficiency. The user-friendly interface of Pimcore significantly reduced the time and effort required for product management, allowing team members to quickly update and improve listings without extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, the scalable nature of Pimcore supports the brand's growth and evolving needs, enabling easy adaptation to new market demands and expansion without significant overhauls to the data management system.
Ergebnis
Unified data source and increased efficiency
The implementation of Pimcore streamlined product data management by creating a unified source of truth for all product information, which significantly saved time and increased operational efficiency. This system now supports both B2B and B2C platforms by connecting a single Pimcore instance to two Magento 2 instances, eliminating the need to enter or modify data twice. This integration ensures that attributes, images, and data remain consistent across both platforms. Having Pimcore PIM at the center enhances the brand's ability to respond swiftly to market changes and consumer/client demands. It also sets the stage for future growth and stability for Beauty Works.
