Situation
Inefficient Product Review Process
β†’
Quarterly meetings required over 1,000 samples.
β†’
Global travel and shipping were expensive.
β†’
Attendees lost sample access post-meetings.
Crocs faced a significant challenge in their quarterly product review meetings. They required an effective and efficient solution since the existing process was costly and time-consuming. Each meeting required the manufacturing and shipping of over 1,000 samples from Asia to their Colorado headquarters, with representatives traveling globally to participate. This in-person process incurred significant costs and presented logistical challenges. Furthermore, after the meetings, attendees had no access to the samples once they returned to their countries, leading to inefficiencies in the review and selection process. Crocs aimed to address these issues by adopting a more sustainable and streamlined approach that would also align with their net-zero brand goals by 2030.

Enable global collaboration and review.
The core task was to digitize Crocs’ sample portfolio and leverage an advanced digital platform for online product reviews. The transition aimed to minimize the need for physical samples and long-distance travel, directly addressing cost and time inefficiencies. Crocs decided to explore Sketchfab's 3D asset management platform to centralize and showcase their digital samples effectively. By digitizing their process, they anticipated easier access for global teams, reducing the environmental impact from manufacturing and transportation and speeding up the decision-making processes. Therefore, Crocs set out to implement a virtual solution that enabled collaborators to review samples without the need for physical presence.

Enabled global review without physical meetings.
Crocs implemented Sketchfab for Teams, a 3D asset management platform, to transition their quarterly product review process from physical to digital. Through this platform, Crocs securely stored and centralized their 3D assets. The digital sample portfolio was organized using folder hierarchies, allowing for seamless classification and retrieval. Crocs invited collaborators to their shared Sketchfab account, enabling them to review designs at their convenience from anywhere. This eliminated the necessity for global travel and shipment of physical samples. The onboarding was smooth, and participants quickly adapted to the new format, achieving a frictionless transition that proved to be highly beneficial, especially during the travel restrictions imposed by the 2020 pandemic.
