Sample management, vendor coordination, prototyping, and go-to-market and assortment planning rarely live in your PLM or inventory system. They live in spreadsheets and email. We build the connected planning layer on top of the systems you keep, so designers, planners, vendors, and field teams all work from the same upcoming assortment. We complement your PLM and PIM; we do not replace them.

The product planning lifecycle is full of cross-functional work that no PLM or inventory system was built to run, so it ends up scattered across trackers and email.
Your PLM holds design and manufacturing data. Your PIM holds marketing and sales data. But the work between them, sample tracking, vendor and factory coordination, prototyping reviews, and go-to-market and assortment planning, happens in spreadsheets. Samples get chased over email, vendor status lives in someone's tracker, designers and planners work from different versions, and the upcoming assortment is invisible to the wholesalers and field teams who need it.
We are not here to replace your inventory system or your PLM, and Airtable is not a system of record for warehouse-scale inventory. We build the connected planning layer on top of what you keep: sample management, vendor management, prototyping, and go-to-market planning in one visual system the whole company actually uses. And because that planning data is clean and connected, it becomes the foundation a product organization needs to forecast and to become AI-native.

Every enterprise operates somewhere on this spectrum. We help you move to the next state, with the foundation to keep moving.
Most teams start here
Disconnected tools. Manual reconciliation. Spreadsheet sprawl. Data lives in a dozen places and teams work around the system instead of with it. Every quarter feels harder than the last.
Where our clients live
One operating system across teams. Clean data architecture. Workflows that match how the team actually works. Automation where it adds value. Reporting that reflects reality.
The AI decade
Connected systems plus the AI layer that compounds them. Predictive signal that works because the data foundation is clean. It only works on top of Connected Systems. There is no shortcut.
AI transformation firms will sell you Intelligent Operations on top of Fragmented Operations. The result is faster chaos. We build the connected foundation that makes the next state possible.
The cross-functional work between design and shelf, connected on one visual system, mapped to how your product and operations teams actually work.
Track samples from request to review to approval in one place, so nothing gets chased over email and every decision has a record.
Vendor scorecards, purchase orders, and factory coordination connected, so sourcing and production status is current and shared.
Prototyping, specs, and design handoff on a shared system of record, so design, development, and planning stop working from different versions.
Plan the upcoming assortment and go-to-market once, and give wholesalers and field teams a live view of what is coming.
We build workflows on top of your PLM and PIM data with a visual, usable interface, complementing those systems rather than replacing them.
Our forward-deployed AI engineers build the clean planning data that makes forecasting and AI deliver. Model-agnostic, never locked to one provider.
Last-generation PLM and PIM tools are data stores, not workflow systems. We connect to them and build the planning workflows they were never designed to run.
We pull design, manufacturing, and product data from your PLM and PIM into a holistic planning view, rather than asking you to abandon systems of record.
A highly visual interface that designers, planners, and field teams actually adopt, unlike rigid, last-generation tools.
Build the sample, vendor, prototyping, and go-to-market workflows on top of existing product data, so planning finally has a home.
Connect design, wholesale, and field to a single live view of the upcoming assortment, so everyone plans against the same truth.
A dam looks simple from the outside. Inside, it converts turbulent force into something controlled and dependable. The complexity lives inside the system. What your team experiences is clarity.
We map the friction. Where workflows break, where data lives, where the team is working around the system instead of with it.
We architect the connected system. The right tools, data structure, and ownership, mapped to how your team actually works.
We build, integrate, and migrate. Airtable, AI, custom code, and your existing stack. Your team is involved at every step.
We embed for ongoing operations. We document everything. You own the system. We are there when it needs to evolve.

We are grateful for the success we’ve brought to our clients. They’ve been kind enough to share their experiences with you. Here is a small sample of the hundreds of testimonials and 5-star ratings we’ve received.
Focused scale, not freelancers
135 certified implementers, more than five times the next largest competitor. Depth across every workflow your business runs.
The re-sourcing guarantee
If a resource is not the right match, we get ahead of it and fix it. You never have to fight for a resolution. Finding the right person is on us.
Embedded, not parachuted in
We embed on your team and hold the institutional knowledge of your systems long after launch, through turnover and new complexity.
Forward-deployed AI engineering
We embed senior AI engineers to build the operational foundation that makes AI investments actually deliver, instead of layering intelligence on broken operations. We stay model-agnostic, so your strategy is never tied to one provider.
No. We complement them. Your PLM and PIM hold design, manufacturing, and product data, and your inventory system is your system of record at scale. We build the planning and coordination workflows on top, sample management, vendor management, prototyping, and go-to-market, that those systems were never meant to run.
Yes. We pull product and operations data from the systems you keep through supported integrations, so planning happens on top of one connected view rather than in a separate silo.
Yes. We design for mobile and external visibility, so field teams and wholesale partners see the upcoming assortment and status in real time, with role-based access controlling exactly what each party sees.
It comes with you. Data migration, cleanup, and validation are part of the build, so your product, sample, and vendor history stay intact and trustworthy in the connected system.
You do. We document everything and train your team. The Embedded Partnership keeps senior operators available through seasons and launches, sized to what you need, with the re-sourcing guarantee behind every placement.
A hire brings one person's bandwidth and knowledge. We bring 135 certified implementers, document everything, and back it with the re-sourcing guarantee. Many teams use us to build, then run lean internally.
Change management is built into every engagement, not bolted on at the end. Our four-phase approach, Align, Design for Behavior, Enable, and Reinforce, defines the executive why, designs governance and role-based access in from the start, trains each team on its real workflows, and reinforces with adoption dashboards and 30, 60, and 90 day reviews. That is how engagements reach the outcomes leaders care about: around 90% active adoption, a roughly 75% drop in manual reporting, and the full retirement of shadow spreadsheets.
