How long does PIM implementation take for a manufacturing company?

The implementation of a PIM system, for a manufacturing company depends on the company from which the PIM is being implemented. For instance, an enterprise PIM like Akeneo or PimCore is complex to implement. If you are a small or mid-sized manufacturing company adopting OdooPIM, it could take up to 4 to 5 weeks.

Other factors that impact the implementation timeline include catalog size and complexity, number of channels being adopted, and integration requirements.

While we won’t delve into the details of implementing an enterprise PIM system, let’s look at how we implement PIM for manufacturing with reference to OdooPIM.

We adopt a phased approach and start by importing your product data via the OdooPIM Onboarder. We then review the data and update missing information – be it text, images, warranties, and other compliance requirements. We then address quality issues, that the OdooPIM Onboarder will automatically highlight. Next, we set up the attribute schema and validation rules. Odoo users can also integrate their ERP and e-commerce sales platforms with OdooPIM.
