International Product & Data Standard (IPDS)
IPDS catalogues are those created and maintained by Planit’s
international partners. Our
partners work closely with
the manufacturers within
their home market.
IPDS catalogues are automatically available to all other Planit
partners for translation
into local languages, and
delivery to Planit customers
world-wide.
Planit UK currently delivers IPDS catalogues produced and
maintained in Germany,
France, Holland, Denmark and
Spain. These catalogues are
often maintained in
coordination with the
manufacturer and, in some
instances, the features and
functionality of these
differ to that of catalogues
produced directly by the UK
Data Team.
The IPDS catalogue process enables Planit UK to deliver
international catalogues to
our customers more quickly
and efficiently, and with
the knowledge that the same
catalogues are being used by
Planit customers in the
manufacturer’s own home
market.
Any changes required to an IPDS catalogue will always be sent to
the Planit partner
responsible for maintaining
the source catalogue. This
ensues that all changes are
dealt with on an
international basis.
New Data Standard (NDS)
Since its launch on the 1st
July 2005, over 90% of
Planit UK’s kitchen
manufacturer’s catalogues
have been recreated in NDS
by our Data Team.
Planit developed NDS to
present Planit users with
several distinct advantages:
·
Further improved catalogue
quality, accuracy and
delivery resulting from new
production techniques
·
Greater accuracy in product
representation
·
Improved wood textures
·
Accurate representation of
frame styles and handle
position
·
Flexible catalogue
structures allowing us to
reflect the manufacturers’
structure more closely
·
Easier searching facilities
for standard and
non-standard products
·
Reductions in catalogue file
sizes, allowing faster
installations and downloads
·
Enhanced Visualise views
·
Interactive Handle
Positioning
·
Interactive Door and drawer
opening
·
Interactive Shelf
