Powering Ahead: Klim and Centric Software Speed into the Future

Campbell, Calif., 23 January 2018 – Centric Software is delighted to announce the release of a success story about its customer, Klim.

Klim makes high-quality, durable, lifesaving products for snowmobilers and motorcyclists, with a mission to enhance the rider’s experience. In the mid-2000s, when Klim entered the motorcycle market, it became impossible to handle an exploding number of SKUs and ever more complex communication with just spreadsheets and email.

Klim decided to invest in Centric Software’s PLM solution in 2009, and never looked back. Watch the video or read Klim’s success story to discover how Centric PLM helped build a backbone for dominance of the powersports apparel market, how having ‘one source of one truth’ brought dramatic improvements in efficiency and communication, and how Klim and Centric worked together to develop an innovative field testing solution.
