ColepCCL, Europe's largest contract manufacturer of personal and household care products and associated packaging solutions, selects Sopheon's Accolade product life cycle management (PLM) system to support group-wide implementation of the company's innovation management process. The system will be used by ColepCCL's newly instituted Innovation Centre to provide the automated structure for deployment of the process across plant locations in the UK, Germany, Spain, Portugal and Poland. "ColepCCL is committed to reshaping the packaging industry," says Grant A. Coupland, leader of the Innovation Centre. "Our strategy for achieving this goal is to raise our value to customers by leading in the turnkey development of innovative solutions and services. Accolade gives us a unified, sustainable process structure that will enable our business units to effectively innovate with a local focus, but also operate in alignment with the overarching objectives and best practices of the group."
