VF Corp. and NGC in Production Deal

Denim and outerwear producer VF Corp. will use New Generation Computing’s e-SPS production solution to help manage the global production of its branded- apparel business, which includes Lee, Wrangler, Rustler, Lily of France, Jansport and the North Face labels.

The product will provide VF Corp.’s sourcing department and overseas vendors with real-time access to production data and the ability to complete steps in the production process via the Internet. Features include end-to-end tracking of purchase orders and real-time updates on the status of apparel production.

“We selected New Generation Computing’s software based on the company’s proven track record of providing clients with effective strategic-sourcing solutions, the company’s knowledge and experience in the apparel industry, and superior service,” said Ellen Martin, vice president of supply-chain systems for VF Corp. —Robert McAllister
