Digital fashion technology
With a new ‘Slack-style’ chat feature, Supply Compass builds a platform for fashion brands and manufacturers to connect more conveniently. The company is leading in the sector with its new launch that is helping fashion brands and manufacturers to communicate and work together in partnership through their services. This will help improve production efficiency and quality. Fashion brands can very easily look for new partners worldwide for manufacturing processes through this platform. A few features of the platform include a chat feature for clear communication between the companies, separate interfaces of both the parties (purchase order management, costings, sample management, tech pack), dashboard & tracking feature for sample request and management, and inbuilt purchase order feature that allows users to raise POs in a click.
In the whole supply chain of the fashion industry, hundreds of different people are engaged from raw material collection to final selling of the product, the conventional modes they use for overall data are simply emails, excel sheets and paper files. The level of digitalization of whole data is still in progress in the fashion industry. During the pandemic, the world is completely shifting to digital communication platforms like zoom but there is no such platform that is very appropriate to cater to the complexity of the fashion industry where efficiency comes with strong and consistent communication. So Supply Compass comes up with the solution to this with their Slack-style chat feature which facilitates centralized, clear freestyle communication as well as order details. This makes the connection work more efficiently and builds strong relationships.
Through this brands can upload heavy files in the charts, share videos, links, etc. Through this innovation now fashion brands can easily bring collections to the market 50% faster with increased sample hit rate, less stress and uncertainty. They also bring standardization for different countries, languages and in different levels of the production, enabling the company to stress less over the production management and make more profit from quality products. Gus Bartholomew, CEO and Co-founder of Supply Compass says they learned all the problems of the fashion industry in the real market in India, but this pandemic has only changed the situation for the worse, so they are excited to bring something to the market which can tackle this issue.
