Despite the rise of digital design practices, there continues to be a dearth of scholarly information and empirical research regarding the utilization of 3D apparel visualization software from the manufacturer's standpoint. While digital tools have the potential to enhance wearability and economic feasibility, the incorporation of new technologies in the development of firefighting gear has received insufficient attention in research. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the integration of 3D apparel visualization software into an industrial product design and development process, focusing on the manufacturer's perspective for wildland firefighting protective clothing. The research employed qualitative methods and consisted of two phases: action research with a wildland firefighting gear company and in-depth interviews with five additional firefighting gear companies.The first phase, action research, examined the opportunities for integrating the software into the design and development process of a specific wildland firefighting protective clothing company. Over an eleven-month period, the primary investigator conducted six collaborative interviews with two representatives of the Company A, assuming the role of an instructor to demonstrate the software's capabilities and facilitate participants' understanding of its potential integration. The second phase involved in-depth interviews with ten experts in product development or technical design positions from five firefighting gear companies.The results of this research offer valuable insights into the multifaceted perceptions and experiences of firefighting gear manufacturing companies in using 3D apparel visualization software. The findings consider not only the technological capabilities of the software but also specific considerations related to firefighting gear, technology users, organizations, and the business environment. Moreover, the suggestions regarding software usage and improvement expressed by participants indicate avenues for further examination of this technology in the context of functional clothing design and production. These insights have practical implications for software providers and developers, firefighting gear designers, manufacturers, administrators, and the fire service community, providing valuable knowledge for harnessing the potential of 3D apparel visualization software in the development of functional clothing at a company level.
