Making Personalization as Custom and Unique as the Players Themselves.

Challenge

The King of the Swoosh, apparel brand Nike is known worldwide as one of the top-performing sports companies. NikeTeam.com is a highly-valued internal apparel resource, and Nike needed to be sure the website data imported from NikeTeam.com was properly being translated to factory ordering systems. Without this accuracy, inventory numbers may be compromised.

Nike’s research showed that these changes would play a key role in reducing processing errors and improving quality levels. Furthermore, the company identified a need to update their annual catalog styles, colors, and fabrics, as well as enhance quarterly maintenance and data integrity.
