NGC Releases New Version of PLM and Global Sourcing Software
NGC (New Generation Computing) releases a new version of its e-PLM and e-SPS software. Highlights of e-PLM 2009 and e-SPS 2009 include NGC's CPSIA Compliance module, as well as integrated support for the 10+2 Importer Security Filing (ISF) requirements.
With its latest releases, NGC makes compliance and testing management an integral part of its software. NGC's CPSIA Compliance software is available as an optional module for e-PLM and e-SPS or as a standalone product. It allows retailers to manage the process of requesting, tracking, approving and sending the General Certificate of Conformity (GCC) and Certificate of Compliance (COC) documents that are mandated by the CPSIA. NGC's software also allows companies to manage the dozens of third-party lab tests that are required for apparel design and production.
Support for 10+2 requirements, formally known as the Importer Security Filing and Additional Carrier Requirements, is incorporated throughout e-PLM and e-SPS 2009. Companies can collect, maintain and manage information needed for 10+2 ISF filings; electronically share the 10+2 information with the agent that is filing the ISF; issue alerts throughout the supply chain regarding 10+2 records; and notify import managers with the 10+2 details of each shipment.
NGC also offers new Web-enabled features, including the ability to now do full style builds on the Web in e-PLM 2009. e-PLM also includes enhancements to the fit, spec and sampling process to allow multiple sizes and size classes per sampling; the ability to maintain color and grade rule tables as well as label and packing instructions over the web; and enhancements to the measurement and spec pages to allow comments and overrides on POMs. Additional remote capabilities include purchase order entry on the web in e-SPS, giving users in overseas offices the ability to enter PO's for factories.
