Elevating Product Information Management with Informatica PIM for Eaton

About

Eaton

Eaton, a global power management company with operations spanning multiple industries, faced challenges in managing and syndicating product data across its complex supply chain. With over 300,000 SKUs and a dynamic global presence, maintaining accurate, consistent, and high-quality product information was a critical need. Eaton sought to enhance its product data processes to improve operational efficiency, support global expansion, and meet channel-specific syndication requirements.

The Challenge

Eaton faced significant hurdles in managing its vast product catalog of over 300,000 SKUs across multiple regions. Inconsistent product attributes led to data duplication and inefficiencies, affecting operations and customer trust. Manual data onboarding and exports were time-consuming and error-prone, slowing down syndication to global channels. Adapting product information for diverse marketplaces like Amazon and Home Depot required extensive customization and manual intervention. Additionally, the existing system struggled to scale, making it difficult to accommodate increasing SKUs and regional variations. Eaton required custom SDK extensions to address unique business rules and workflows.
