Procurement for Textile & Apparel
In textiles, the color-size variant matrix, the collection calendar and fabric consumption require functions to see stock and cost variant by variant. Digitize your supply process from start to finish and lower your costs, from purchase requisition to quote and order, and from quality policies to inventory and finance integration.
Textile & Apparel context
Why Procurement works differently in Textile & Apparel
In Textile & Apparel, textile and apparel processes center on sector-specific concepts such as color-size variant matrix, collection planning, fabric consumption. In textiles, the color-size variant matrix, the collection calendar and fabric consumption require functions to see stock and cost variant by variant.
Qera ERP's Procurement module is set up around how the textile & apparel sector works: Manages fabric and accessory purchasing by variant and subcontracting needs.
- When color, size and pattern variants can't be managed under one product code, stock and order tracking gets tangled.
- When collection and season planning don't match production capacity, delivery commitments are at risk.
- When fabric, accessory and subcontract consumption isn't tracked clearly, the true product cost is unknown.
