Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) links all product-related activities from design to merchandising, financial planning, development, specifications, sourcing, sample management, production and quality. With Manufacturing PLM in place, manufacturers gain greater visibility and control over the complex processes involved in creating and delivering products for external customers or other internal departments. PLM makes it possible to track and manage product-related data in real time in a centralized digital location, collaborate effectively with brands and retailers, guarantee on-time delivery, enhance product innovation and easily manage BOMs and tech packs, giving manufacturers the edge they need to compete in a global marketplace.
Centric Manufacturing PLM empowers manufacturers around the world to simplify development, add structure, remove inefficiencies and increase transparency and clarity, improve product quality, reduce errors and gain a competitive advantage.
