AIMS360 is the consumer brands ERP built for golf apparel and equipment brands and manufacturers. It runs golf apparel in a size and color matrix and golf equipment, clubs, bags, balls and accessories, as configurable hardgoods with their own attributes and bill of materials, alongside pre-season buying at the PGA Buying Summit and PGA Show, custom insignia and tournament order programs, green grass, off-course and resort channels, and retailer EDI to PGA Tour Superstore, Dick's Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy and Scheels, with PLM, 3PL and accounting in one platform.
Golf brands run wide: apparel in a size and color matrix, and equipment, clubs, bags, balls and accessories, as configurable hardgoods with their own attributes and bill of materials. AIMS360 models apparel and equipment on one platform, in one catalog.
A horizontal ERP can hold a golf brand's parts, but it does not understand three things that define the business. The custom program is not a side project: club logos, member initials and tournament branding are a large, growing share of golf revenue, and in a generic ERP the custom order lives outside the stock workflow, so cost, approval and margin never reach the books cleanly. There are three channels with three buying behaviors: green grass pro shops reorder small and often, off-course chains buy pre-season with EDI and compliance, and resort and club accounts mix stock and custom, all drawing from one stock number. And the season is set at a buying show: the line is committed at the PGA Buying Summit and PGA Show months before goods exist, so an ERP that starts at the invoice misses the half of the year where golf money is actually made.
AIMS360 is built for all three, and it runs golf equipment, clubs, bags and balls, as configurable hardgoods with attributes and a bill of materials right alongside apparel, so a brand that sells both keeps one catalog, one inventory and one set of books.
The platform handles every operational reality above. Here is what that looks like inside the system.
Capture the customized order with its logo or artwork reference and approval record, carry the added decoration cost into the bill of materials and margin, and track the job through production and fulfillment alongside stock. The physical embroidery stays with your decorator; AIMS360 stays the system of record.
Run all four channels against one stock pool, with native retailer EDI to PGA Tour Superstore, Dick's, Golf Galaxy and Scheels so purchase orders land against live inventory and ASNs and invoices go back on spec.
Pre-season commitments from the PGA Buying Summit and PGA Show drive factory POs, landed cost, allocation and accounting without re-entry, so the season you sold in July is the season you can actually ship and bill.
Golf operations have a predictable shape, and AIMS360 maps that shape directly into the platform with a specific configuration for each step.
Build the style in PLM with tech pack, materials and factory costing, including the added cost path for custom decoration.
Capture wholesale and custom commitments at the PGA Buying Summit and PGA Show as orders against a season, before inventory exists. Reps and buyers can order through RepSpark B2B against live availability.
Commitments drive factory purchase orders and landed cost, with visibility from PO to receipt.
As goods arrive, allocate against ship windows and send compliant ASNs and invoices to off-course retailers over EDI.
Green grass reorders, off-course bulk, resort custom and DTC all pick from one stock pool through WMS or a 3PL.
Invoicing, chargebacks and margin, including custom-program cost, reconcile in one accounting ledger.
No bolted-on billing for the basics, no separate inventory tool, no shadow EDI vendor. AIMS360 ships with the full operating stack.
Tech packs, BOM and landed cost on one style record.
Native EDI to PGA Tour Superstore, Dick's, Golf Galaxy and Scheels.
Wholesale, custom, resort and DTC in one queue.
Reps and buyers order against live available-to-sell; orders return as AIMS360 sales orders with the rep attached.
Matrix picking in-house or through a connected 3PL.
Hand off fulfillment while inventory stays in sync.
One ledger across stock and custom revenue.
Clubs, bags and balls as configurable SKUs with attributes and BOM.
Take payment on wholesale, custom and DTC orders.
Reachable from the office, factory and show booth.
Golf brands sell across four distinct channels, and AIMS360 runs all of them against one stock pool. Off-course specialty accounts like PGA Tour Superstore and Worldwide Golf Shops buy pre-season over EDI with ship-window allocation and compliant ASNs. Sporting-goods chains like Dick's Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, Scheels and Academy run native retailer EDI with chargeback tracking by reason code. Green grass on-course pro shops place small, frequent reorders and custom logo programs against live inventory. Resort and DTC accounts mix stock and custom, drawing from the same stock number as wholesale.
Retailer names describe the channels golf apparel brands sell into. AIMS360 provides native EDI to major retailers; specific trading-partner setup is confirmed during onboarding.
Channel and ecommerce inventory tools track stock but do not run pre-season buys, custom programs, factor financing or retailer EDI, so golf brands outgrow them the first time an off-course chain sends an EDI purchase order or a club orders 400 logoed polos. Large horizontal enterprise ERPs flex to any business, but the size matrix, seasonal buy, custom decoration cost and retailer compliance all have to be built by consultants; AIMS360 ships with them. And a B2B wholesale order-entry platform is buyer-facing: it captures the order but does not process it. AIMS360 is the back office that turns every order, from any channel, into production, inventory, fulfillment and finance.
AIMS360 fits the golf apparel brand on the way up and the manufacturer behind it. Most customers come on board around the inflection where spreadsheets plus an accounting package stop holding the operation together: pre-season wholesale begins, a custom program scales, or retailer EDI is required.
Golf apparel and equipment brands run their operation on AIMS360, from pre-season buy through custom fulfillment to finance close.
