Product Information Management (PIM) means supplying high quality and up-to-date information on products for use in different media and for different company locations. The information in the form of product data, images, descriptions, texts and other sources is stored and administered in a modular systems architecture and can be used on WWW and intranet using a standardized technology. One of the most important aspects of PIM is that the individual product data is stored in a inter-exchangable form. If PIM is not used, there is a danger that the product information is not accessible throughout the company, and can only be used once.
