Bounteous was selected as the 2022 winner for the Experience Award, given to the company that best used PIM to unlock a compelling product experience. By creatively implementing Akeneo’s suite of PXM Studio solutions, JPW Industries and Bounteous achieved a best-in-class product experience.

JPW Industries, the leading designer, manufacturer, and value-added distributor of machinery, specialty shop tools, and equipment for rugged applications, took home the Experience Award for facing an extremely diversified group of customers, selling to industrial, consumer, and construction markets across distributor, eCommerce, and field channels. With six unique brands under its umbrella, JPW worked closely with Bounteous to utilize Akeneo’s PIM, helping improve targeted brand experiences across all channels. Through Akeneo’s governance capabilities, JPW has been able to onboard more brands into the organization than expected, helping multiply and accelerate their growth curve and setting the company up for long-term, sustainable growth.

“Akeneo PIM allowed us to dramatically improve JPW Industries’ product experiences across channels while delivering a seamless customer experience critical to driving revenue growth,” said Jean Bordelon, Bounteous Senior Director of Data Management. “We are honored to receive this award alongside JPW Industries for providing a best-in-class product experience. The new and improved data and processes are allowing JPW Industries to grow at a rapid rate and meet their ambitious business goals.”

As an Akeneo Solution partner, Bounteous has worked hand-in-hand with Akeneo for several years and has helped a number of global brands such as JPW Industries to unlock growth opportunities, unleash team productivity, and delight customers with great product experiences. Bounteous has a certified team that is uniquely positioned to integrate Akeneo PIM to improve the quality and consistency of an organization’s product data. The partnership has truly transformed how companies deliver product experiences, resulting in effective customer experiences which are driving bottom-line results.

“Consumers and business buyers demand more from brands and retailers. The new baseline is a consistent product experience across all touchpoints, which is hard enough. The differentiator is showcasing brand values, integrating environmental impact information, or highlighting second-hand collections,” said Kristin Naragon, Akeneo’s VP of Global Marketing and Strategy. “That’s why we’re so thrilled to celebrate this year’s PXM Champions. During a transformative moment for our industry, these brands have stepped up and used product information to take their businesses to the next level, while continuing to drive value for their customers.”

“Delivering superior customer experiences cannot happen without superior product experiences. We carefully chose Bounteous and Akeneo to help us successfully transform our digital commerce experience, creating a true competitive advantage in the marketplace,” said Mike Ludwig, Vice President of Marketing, eCommerce and Customer Experience at JPW Industries. “Through this partnership, JPW drastically improved the quality of our product data and content across eCommerce channels, a direct contribution to increased sales. We have also positively impacted the user experience for both customers and internal teams alike.”
