The PIM publishes product information to the eCommerce platform with the specific rules of that channel: optimized titles, HTML descriptions, images in the required formats, and eCommerce-specific categories. When data changes in the PIM, the eCommerce platform updates automatically. The difference between a well-done integration and a poorly done one is seen when someone edits a product: in a good integration, the change appears in minutes; in a bad one, the entire product has to be re-uploaded.   <\/p>\n                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END -->\n\n                \n                <div class=\"elementskit-card \">\n                    <div class=\"elementskit-card-header\" id=\"primaryHeading-3-258fe27\">\n                        <a href=\"#collapse-ecc49856ae90592537e5\" class=\"ekit-accordion--toggler elementskit-btn-link collapsed\" data-ekit-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#Collapse-ecc49856ae90592537e5\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"Collapse-ecc49856ae90592537e5\">\n                            \n                            <span class=\"ekit-accordion-title\">4.

An SME with 1000 SKUs that sells through several channels and needs to get to market faster is a typical CRITERIA client. A multinational with 500,000 SKUs in forty markets is also a client. The methodology adapts to the scale; the principles remain the same.    <\/p>\n                        <\/div>\n\n                    <\/div>\n\n                <\/div><!-- .elementskit-card END -->\n\n                \n                <div class=\"elementskit-card \">\n                    <div class=\"elementskit-card-header\" id=\"primaryHeading-5-260d8b9\">\n                        <a href=\"#collapse-81474296ae905925687a\" class=\"ekit-accordion--toggler elementskit-btn-link collapsed\" data-ekit-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#Collapse-81474296ae905925687a\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"Collapse-81474296ae905925687a\">\n                            \n                            <span class=\"ekit-accordion-title\">6.

Each stage has concrete deliverables, and the client always knows which phase the project is in and what is decided at each step. <\/p>\n<ol class=\"[li_&amp;]:mb-0 [li_&amp;]:mt-1 [li_&amp;]:gap-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [&amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-decimal flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\">\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Insight \u2014 We assess your current situation.<\/strong> Business, catalog, active channels, and existing technology stack diagnosis. This reveals the real operational problems, client priorities, and project constraints. <\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Design \u2014 We design the ideal model.<\/strong> Data modeling (attributes, families, channels, locales, governance), integration architecture, and adoption plan. The client receives the complete plan before committing to implementation. <\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Build \u2014 We configure and integrate the system.<\/strong> Configuration of the chosen PIM and development of integrations with ERP, eCommerce, marketplaces, and DAM. This stage concentrates the technical work of the project. <\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Execute \u2014 We upload data and test.<\/strong> Catalog migration to the PIM, quality validations, and testing of synchronizations against each channel with real data. This is where edge cases that no initial plan detects appear, and which should be resolved before going live. <\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Delivery \u2014 We publish the live catalog.<\/strong> Productive launch of the PIM and connected channels, with support for the client's team during the first weeks of operation. Internal adoption is part of the deliverable, not something subsequent. <\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Optimize \u2014 We improve and provide support.<\/strong> Continuous support, model evolution as the business grows, incorporation of new channels or integrations, and refinement of operations. A well-implemented PIM is not \"finished\": it is kept alive. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">The framework's logic is simple: each stage concludes with a reviewable deliverable before advancing to the next.
