A structured approach to managing the supply chain.
As a fashion company, you are highly dependent on your suppliers. Evaluating vendor performance is essential to effectively managing the supply chain. You need to make these evaluations in a structured, organized way which takes into account both quantitative and qualitative results.
Evaluate key results…
Pebblestone Fashion® gives you a structured approach to evaluating your suppliers. The measuring qualifiers are completely flexible and set by you. The results can be measured with objective qualifiers such as meeting promised delivery dates, the right quantities and agreed upon pricing. And it can include more subjective qualifiers such as the state of packing materials, the response to inquiries, etc. The combined results are captured in an easy-to-read report format which gives a clear comparison of vendors.

…and process accurately.
Because of the time lag between when a purchase order is placed and when the final invoice is posted, fashion companies need to have a proven, reliable means of estimating these costs. With Pebblestone Fashion®, landed costs are estimated to include accurate margins for items such as freight and duty. The costs are calculated in a spreadsheet with cost estimates based on rows, combined with percentages. And once the final invoices have been posted, the system automatically posts the difference between the estimate and the actual costs.
Similarly, Pebblestone Fashion® gives you the ability to track, create and manage letters of credit as they pertain to each project. This functionality captures all data pertaining to a specific letter of credit, such as the issuing bank, amount, beneficiary, partial shipments allowed, currency code, and other details. Then each individual purchase order is automatically linked to the appropriate letter of credit for easy tracking and processing.
