L.L.Bean on Implementation

L.L.Bean and Texbase

L.L.Bean uses Texbase to manage their testing data. Texbase has enabled L.L.Bean to eliminate and automate manual processes, enhancing material innovation and quality control by reducing data entry and providing more time to focus on new material developments.

Though they had a new PLM system, they weren’t able to efficiently generate, track or retrieve testing data, which is necessary to ensure that finished products meet their strict performance and durability standards.

Innovation and maintaining high-quality standards is critical for L.L.Bean and having the ability to easily collaborate with raw materials developers, designers and product sourcing is key to their success. L.L.Bean’s testing gets done through Texbase and the results are then entered into their PLM system, allowing all PLM users to have access to information that will help them make the best businesses decisions.
