The Real Bottleneck: Why Design Speed Doesn't Equal Production Speed

PERFORMANCE DAYS, Munich

Expert Talks

Tuesday 13th October 2026

15:00 - 16:00 CEST

Design has accelerated dramatically. But where does your data go? Material data created in design fragments across disconnected systems—never reaching sourcing, production, or compliance. The difference: pixel-perfect rendering shows how something looks. Material data shows what it actually is. That's what production and compliance teams need. CLO explores the integrated workflow that solves this: pattern, 3D, BoM, tech pack, rendering—where material data stays synchronized across every phase. This isn't a finished solution. It's a conversation about where the market needs to go.
