Customer spotlight: Leading global construction equipment manufacturer

The company faced a common challenge: product data governance, vital not only for its website, brochures, catalogs, and marketing materials, but also for legal, compliance, and sustainability reporting. Without a centralized product data management software, data management was chaotic. The global construction equipment manufacturer was known for its uncompromising quality and could not afford inconsistencies in their product data.

• Maintaining data accuracy and consistency across platforms and channels
• Launching new products on time and updating existing ones
• Creating marketing materials at the desired pace and quality
• Handling data manually through multiple on-prem solutions that complicated data integration
