PIM Implementation

Get your PIM live – right, fast, and future-proof.

We don’t just talk PIM, we build, integrate, optimise, and support it.

With PIMLEAD, you get a full-service implementation that brings your systems, product data, and people together for real results.


The PIMLEAD Implementation Journey

From messy product data to smooth operations — here’s how we get you there.

We follow a clear, proven process to plan, build, and embed your PIM system the smart way — tailored to your business, your people, and your goals.


  • 01

    Discovery & Planning

    What happens:

    • Stakeholder workshops
    • Current state analysis (systems, data, people)
    • Define business goals and priorities
    • Implementation roadmap

    Why it matters:

    You need a solid foundation. This step ensures your PIM project is grounded in your actual business needs — not just features or tech hype.


  • 02

    Data Modeling & Setup

    What happens:

    • Design taxonomy (product hierarchy)
    • Define attributes, relationships, variants
    • Configure inheritance rules, data groups
    • Build your data structure in the PIM

    Why it matters:

    Your data model is the core of how PIM works. Get this wrong, and everything else suffers — searchability, enrichment, automation, scalability.


  • 03

    Integration & Migration

    What happens:

    • Connect the PIM to ERP, eCommerce, DAM, etc.
    • Migrate legacy product data
    • Cleanse and validate records
    • Test data flows

    Why it matters:

    You need a clean start. Migrating messy or inconsistent data without a plan leads to junk in, junk out — and missed potential.


  • 04

    Governance & Quality Control

    What happens:

    • Set validation rules (e.g. required fields)
    • Create workflows for data approval/review
    • Establish ownership and data roles
    • Define ongoing quality processes

    Why it matters:

    Data needs discipline. Governance makes sure your product info stays high quality after go-live — without constant firefighting.


  • 05

    Channel Syndication & Optimisation

    What happens:

    • Map PIM content to multiple channels (e.g. Amazon, Shopify, print)
    • Automate format/export rules
    • Optimise for channel-specific needs (titles, bullets, media)

    Why it matters:

    PIM isn’t just about managing data — it’s about publishing it where and how your customers need it. This is where ROI really kicks in.


  • 06

    Training & Hypercare

    What happens:

    • Train users by role (admins, marketers, merchandisers)
    • Deliver custom documentation & guides
    • Offer post-launch support (“hypercare”)
    • Refine workflows and fix early snags

    Why it matters:

    Your team needs to own the system. Without proper training and support, even the best PIM won’t deliver its full potential.
