Use These Tools to Build A Tech Pack in 2025 (The Great Tech Pack Debate)

In this episode, Rachel turns to the Great Tech Pack Debate and clarifying what the best tools actually are to build an amazing tech pack. Essential tools shaping the industry's future, like Adobe Illustrator, Excel, Google Sheets are all great, but that's not all. Our focus is the art of transforming stylized fashion sketches into precise technical drawings, a critical step for accurate communication with manufacturers.

We also break down the technical aspects of creating efficient and clear tech packs. Adobe Illustrator's role in sketching is unmatched, but we highlight its limitations when handling complex data. Learn how integrating spreadsheets like Excel or Google Sheets can bridge this gap, resulting in tech packs that communicate every detail needed for manufacturing success. For the grand finale, Rachel reveals how Product Line Management (PLM) systems are the ideal, offering solutions that streamline processes and provide seamless updates.
