Story
Academy Sports grew product lifecycle data faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, consumer discretionary teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Engineering and quality were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Mendix put change control on Siemens Digital Industries Software. Siemens Digital Industries Software offers PLM, CAD, simulation, and low-code tools that connect product design to the factory. Academy Sports keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so engineering and quality do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier change control. Product lifecycle data is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join engineering and quality without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
