Got SKUs?
Stop Dealing With Inconsistent Product Data.

From Supplier Spreadsheet to Trusted Item Master.

Wednesday, October 28, 2026
11:00 AM ET / 8:00 AM PT  ·  45 min + Q&A

Distributors, manufacturers and suppliers across industries keep telling us the same thing: the product data is the bottleneck. In 45 minutes you'll see, live in Pimcore, how messy supplier files and multiple ERPs become one clean, compliant product record that's ready for every channel.

  • Pimcore hosts and frames each topic from the platform side.
  • basecom moderates and runs the live demo, built around real healthcare data: equipment, devices and life sciences products. The same fix works whatever you sell.

Whether you're weighing PIM or MDM, or already running Pimcore, this session shows the fix in action, not just the pitch.

From the Field

What We Hear From Distributors, Manufacturers and Suppliers

Across scoping calls, customer projects and conversations across industries, the story rarely changes. Supplier data shows up in a different format every time. The same SKU lives in three systems with three descriptions. GPO and IDN content requests eat weeks. And the people who sell the products end up waiting on the data. This session is less about the problem and more about showing how it gets fixed.

"Our team spends more time cleaning supplier spreadsheets than selling the products in them." A version of what we hear from distributors and suppliers again and again

The Product-Data Problems We'll Tackle

Drawn from real scoping conversations with distributors, manufacturers and suppliers, healthcare included.

01

No Single Source of Truth

Product, clinical and asset records scattered across ERPs, SharePoint, spreadsheets and vendor portals, with versioning problems everywhere.

02

Supplier Files in Every Format

Hundreds of suppliers, hundreds of templates. Someone on your team re-keys and reconciles them by hand before anything goes live.

03

Multiple and Legacy ERPs

Epicor P21, Progress and regional ERPs each hold a different version of the same item, and point-to-point integrations keep breaking.

04

SKU and Variant Complexity

Parent/child structures, units of measure, compatibility rules and localized content that simpler PIMs and spreadsheets can't carry.

05

High-Risk Manual Content

Labels and spec sheets still built by copy-paste in Excel and InDesign, where one wrong mg value can mean a recall.

06

Syndication That Eats Weeks

Every GPO, IDN, marketplace and distributor portal wants the data formatted its own way, with audit trails and approvals behind it.

What You'll See

A Working Session, Not a Slide Deck

Pimcore hosts and frames each topic from the platform side. basecom moderates and runs the live demo, built in a Pimcore environment around real healthcare data: equipment, devices and life-sciences products. The same approach applies whatever you sell.

Your QuestionsSubmit ahead or ask live. We'll take as many as time allows.
  1. Onboard Supplier Data Through a Supplier Portal

    Live Demo

    Give suppliers one place to upload SKUs and assets, map their columns to your model, and stop reformatting spreadsheets by hand.

  2. Build One Golden Record From Multiple ERPs

    Live Demo

    Merge the same item from several systems: take the description from one and the name from another, and let rules handle most decisions instead of reviewing hundreds of products one by one.

  3. Catch Bad Data Before It Ships

    Live Demo

    Validation rules, completeness scores and approval gates flag missing or wrong attributes before they reach a label, a catalog or a customer.

  4. Syndicate to Every Channel

    Publish channel-ready data to e-commerce, distributor portals, GPOs and IDNs from one record, with versioning and an audit trail.

  5. Know What's Platform and What's Custom

    We'll be upfront about what's out of the box in Pimcore and where basecom adds custom development for the complex cases.
