Plant-based food producer works with Centric Software® to build shorten R&D cycles and be more competitive
CAMPBELL, Calif., June 9, 2022 – Qinhai (Shanghai) Food Co., Ltd., the plant-based food company, has selected Centric Software’s Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to plan, design, develop, source and sell products such as apparel, footwear, sporting goods, furniture, home décor, cosmetics, food & beverage and luxury to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
Founded in 2020, Qinhai (Shanghai) Food Co., Ltd. is a market leader in the Chinese food industry that specializes in the development, production and retail of plant-based products that meet high customer expectations in terms of raw materials, process and quality.
Qinhai Food offers a wide range of products, and recognized the need to establish standardized and centralized systems for managing product data and R&D. They selected Centric Food and Beverage PLM to build a digital platform for product development and management.
“We believe it is necessary to collect data in a systematic manner before standardizing the entire R&D process and data standards,” says Ms. Zhou Ning, R&D Director of Qinhai Food. “This is a new area of food technology, important in a market in a high state of flux. Centric PLM will help us to accommodate to changes in consumer tastes, supply chains and regulatory standards while also facilitating our future growth.”
As Ms. Zhou elaborates, “Centric Software has a wealth of experience in the food industry at home and abroad, which left an indelible impression on us and got us thinking more about PLM planning. This is why we decided to collaborate with Centric Software to achieve R&D digitalization.”
The primary goals of the PLM project are to ensure data standardization, collect basic data, identify and streamline R&D processes and also to set up project management models. Qinhai Food plans to establish a “market + product” dual-drive development model that uses PLM to respond rapidly throughout the business chain to shorten the R&D cycle, build core product competitiveness, and ultimately achieve its strategic goals.
“The whole Centric team is professional and efficient, with an impressive mix of industry leaders and successful experience,” concludes Ms Zhou. “This is a rare opportunity for Qinhai Food, and I look forward to the project results.”
“We are very pleased that Qinhai Food has placed their trust in Centric Software,” says Chris Groves, President and CEO of Centric Software. “We are excited about working with Qinhai Food at this crucial point in their business development to revolutionize R&D processes and pursue their strategic objectives.”
