They want a solution that will allow them to easily adapt to change, minimize risks associated with being stuck with one vendor or vendor lock-in
PVH is a company with a centralised ERP system.
PVH is a company with a centralised ERP system.
A centralised ERP system is one that has all departments using the same software, for example SAP or Oracle. It’s expensive to maintain and not flexible enough to develop new features quickly enough for modern business needs. This makes it hard for PVH to keep up with their competitors because they can’t innovate as fast as they need too.
The ERP was originally developed by SAP and is expensive to maintain.
The ERP is not flexible, and it’s hard to adapt to market change. The ERP takes too long to develop new features and is not future proof or user friendly.

The only alternative for PVH is to buy a new package from another vendor.
This means that PVH will have to pay for a new package and train their staff on the new package. In addition, it may take some time before the new package gets developed and tested by both vendors.
PVH have decided to implement their strategy now instead of waiting for the SAP 2028 program to become available.
This new strategy will be implemented now, rather than waiting for the application to become available. The reason is that PVH want to avoid having a new vendor and they also want to avoid the cost of switching vendors.
Conclusion
PVH’s decision to implement their strategy now is a bold move, and one that will enable them to get ahead of their competitors. They have taken advantage of changing technology to create a new business model, instead of waiting for the SAP 2028 program to come out, which could potentially be years away from being released at all.
