This document discusses product information management (PIM) systems and how to select the right PIM program. It explains that PIM systems provide a single repository for product information that can be accessed by various stakeholders to reduce mistakes and inconsistencies. This centralized system helps drive sales and improve customer loyalty by telling a coherent story about products. However, many organizations still struggle with inconsistent and scattered product data across different systems. The document then provides an overview of what to consider when selecting a PIM system, how PIM systems manage and distribute product information, and examples of benefits that PIM customers have experienced such as reduced time-to-market and increased sales and profits.
