class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Digital transformation has become increasingly important for many companies in recent years, especially brick-and-mortar retailers that have had to offset lost revenue through digital channels (marketplaces, online shops, e-catalogs, apps, etc.). Demand for Product Information Management (PIM) software has also risen rapidly as a result. The aim of PIM is to manage high-quality product data centrally for all output channels.<\/p>\n<p>PIM enables companies to supply their digital channels automatically and in real time. This transformation allows companies to take full advantage of global digitalization and deliver their product content efficiently and directly to customers, partners and employees.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge: simply installing a PIM solution is not enough. A PIM system needs to meet the company&#8217;s requirements and make work easier. This calls for careful planning and design before implementation begins. The system must then be used correctly to deliver tangible business results.<\/p>\n<p>Service partners can support companies with implementation to help achieve this. Some even offer to handle the entire PIM software implementation as a full-service project. However, this level of service is not essential. You and your team can also manage the implementation yourselves. The right implementation approach for you and your company depends entirely on your specific preferences and capabilities.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73934f09 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"73934f09\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How the implementation models differ<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a57d874 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"a57d874\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9b623f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f9b623f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Support from a service partner<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d2ab710 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4d2ab710\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you choose a full-service project, your service partner or software vendor handles the entire installation and transition to the new software environment for you.<\/p>\n<p>This service saves internal resources and gives you access to PIM system experts whose years of experience provide in-depth knowledge of the system. Naturally, such a comprehensive service comes at a price, which generally makes a full-service project the most expensive model.<\/p>\n<p>The most important consideration in your decision is this: you are handing over project leadership to an external provider. You may end up entrusting the project to a company with only a superficial understanding of your products and the associated processes. Limited scope to intervene creates various challenges and risks in a full-service project. If the service partner introduces new processes and workflows for you and your employees, your team may be less receptive to these changes than if they came from a colleague they already know. When ideas come from a team member, the team may be more open to them and look forward to the new working environment.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you and your team will lack knowledge of the adjustments and changes made to the PIM system. This leaves you tied to the implementation partner even after the project is complete and limits your independence.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Advantages and disadvantages at a glance:<\/span><br \/>+ Saves internal resources<br \/>+ You work with PIM system experts<br \/>+ Service partners have project experience and can apply their knowledge to new situations<br \/>&#8211; The service is expensive<br \/>&#8211; Implementation partners lack detailed knowledge of your company, processes and ways of working<br \/>&#8211; Limited scope to intervene<br \/>&#8211; Dependence on the implementation partner, even after go-live<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-394239d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"394239d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Running a PIM project with your own team<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3e8f4ea elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3e8f4ea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>If you implement PIM software in-house, you and your team make all the decisions, enabling every department to gain the knowledge it needs about your PIM solution.<\/p>\n<p>This expertise is essential during implementation, particularly knowledge of product management and technical data requirements.

For most projects, a hybrid model works best: responsibility for the data model, processes and decisions stays in-house, while external specialists contribute their expertise in solution design, data migration and go-live. This builds internal knowledge that remains after go-live and helps avoid common early mistakes.<\/p><p><strong>More on this topic:<\/strong> <a
