Spark Factory Goes Live with DeSL's End-to-End PLM Solution

(New York, NY, January 08th, 2026) Discover e-Solutions (DeSL), a leading provider of digital transformation and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software for the fashion, apparel, and textile industries, is proud to announce that Spark Factory has successfully gone live with DeSL's cloud-based PLM platform.

Based in Quebec, Spark Factory selected DeSL to modernize its product development processes and unify teams under a single source of truth. The implementation includes several key DeSL modules: Line Planning, Workspaces, Fast Product Management (FPM), Tech Packs, Fast Tech Pack Management (FTM), and POM Templates, Adobe Illustrator Plug-in, Critical Path/Request for Development (RFD), and Internal Discussion Threads. All designed to connect design, development, and production in one streamlined digital environment.

Driving Efficiency and Visibility across the Product Lifecycle

Prior to implementing DeSL, Spark Factory faced significant challenges with disjointed tools and manual processes, relying heavily on spreadsheets and email communication. These fragmented systems created visibility gaps, data inconsistencies, and inefficiencies across teams.

By moving to DeSL's integrated PLM ecosystem, Spark Factory now benefits from a unified platform that centralizes product data, automates manual workflows, and enhances cross-department collaboration. The solution enables real-time visibility into product status, consolidates development milestones, and ensures that all team members are working from a single version of truth.

"We wanted to get out of the black hole we were in related to technology," shares Caroline Sauve, Operations & Product Development Vice President from Spark Factory. "DeSL gives us one consolidated place where everyone can see the products, their status, and all the information we need to make faster, smarter decisions."

Enhancing Creative and Technical Collaboration

The go-live also includes DeSL's Adobe Illustrator Plug-in, which allows designers to seamlessly connect creative work directly with PLM. This integration eliminates duplicate data entry, keeps artwork synchronized, and accelerates the transition from design to development.

DeSL's latest software generation also introduces AI-powered tools across its PLM ecosystem, helping users automate repetitive tasks, improve data quality, and uncover actionable insights, further supporting brands like Spark Factory in their drive toward digital transformation.

"Spark Factory's adoption of DeSL's PLM platform represents a bold step toward full digital transformation," said Colin Marks, CEO of DeSL. "They've embraced automation, visibility, and data integrity to replace legacy processes with an intelligent, future-proof foundation."

DeSL looks forward to supporting Spark Factory to improve their product development processes. For more information or to request a demo, visit www.desl.net.
