Tag-It Selects Oracle to Manage Trim Supplies

Woodland Hills, Calif.–based Tag-It Pacific Inc. will use Oracle Corp.’s E-Business Suite to manage the 25 million to 30 million pieces of trim it delivers to apparel retailers and manufacturers each month.

The Oracle software package, which includes purchasing intelligence and outsourcing modules, gives Tag-It an integrated platform that will automate previously manual processes. The application will also enable a global ecommerce system and lower technology maintenance costs, a Tag-It spokesperson said.

Once Tag-It deploys the system, its customers will operate more efficiently by accessing the company’s trim-development, ordering and delivery processes, said Executive Vice President Jonathan Markiles.

“Currently we supply these trim packages for millions of garments per month in Mexico and Central America alone,” Markiles said. “Oracle was the only vendor that could address our complex supply-chain requirements with a complete, global solution.” —Robert McAlister
