Product information management

Product information management (PIM) — also known as product data management, product MDM or MDM of product data — is a specific domain within the broader MDM discipline.
 
As defined by Ventana Research, PIM encompasses both the processes and technologies required to manage data about products, items or materials enterprise wide. It also includes all the steps and supporting information management technologies needed to produce complete, consistent and reliable product records.
 
PIM enables efficient management of both structured and unstructured data — such as product-related rich media — on the web and across all print media. As such, it often includes catalog management processes, catalog content management, digital asset management and web content management related to products and promotions.
