For sourcing, merchandising, and finance

Make margin decisions while the product can still change.

Lifecycle connects cost planning to the specification and materials behind the product. Teams can compare scenarios, capture the commercial impact of sourcing choices, and keep approved costs visible as the range advances.

01

Start with the BOM

Use current fabrics, trims, components, consumption, and supplier pricing as the foundation for a more explainable product cost.

02

Compare scenarios

Review alternatives across vendors, quantities, regions, currencies, duties, and target prices before approving a commercial route.

03

Set targets and approvals

Track target, quoted, and approved costs so product, sourcing, and merchandising teams understand which figure is current.

04

Roll up the range

Bring product-level cost and margin context into collection planning and purchase decisions for a clearer view of the developing range.

Flexible with product costing

Cost byProduct or Material

Drill into costs at any level - from a single fabric or trim to a full product style. Every update rolls up in real time, giving you true landed cost visibility across your line.
