Product information management: maintaining consistent product details for use across sales channels and other systems.
PIM brings product information together so it can be collected, edited and distributed consistently across systems and sales channels. A shared repository and workflow help teams consolidate details from different internal sources, add information and prepare it for publication. The work concerns the information describing a product, including its attributes and descriptive content. It differs in scope from managing a product’s development lifecycle, although the systems may exchange information. A PIM requirement can refer to maintaining these records, coordinating their publication or using the software that supports the process.
