In 2012, elope embarked on a PLM project to help support the continued growth of the company and selectedDeSLfollowing a comprehensive vendor evaluation process.

Carolye Asfahl, COO, elope commented, "elope is already seeing major improvements from ourDeSL implementation. We wanted one system visible to all departments, including our production team overseas, to increase our work efficiency and information consistency. A positive outcome I did not expect was how quickly our overseas teams are adopting the system." Carolye continued, "PLM is especially helping with our sample management process which previously required many people and different spreadsheets. There were many opportunities to miscommunicate and confuse the situation on samples. Now, with DeSL's PLM module, we are seeing huge improvements, no confusing spreadsheets, and our overseas team is even driving us to be better users of the system."

Marc Friedman, VP North America commented, "Following their competitive vendor selection process, we w ere absolutely delighted that elope selectedDeSL. Since then we've been able to develop a real partnership with the elope team, which has resulted in a highly successful 'go-live'. As Carolye herself stated, the DeSL PLM solution has already delivered immediate benefits and improvements for the company and they are now in the process of implementing our SRM solution which will cover their entire purchase order management processes, including capacity management and product tracking down to individual SKU level. Another key deliverable from the SRM project will be vendor compliance management."
