“Our collection development process is constantly being improved, and our existing programme could not provide enough analytical data,” explains Valentina Khilmanovich, deputy director of design and production. “We needed a single platform to combine flows of information, including photos, boards, sketches, spreadsheets, files and emails, and give the entire team updated data.”

The company has selected Centric Fashion PLM, becoming Centric Software’s second customer in Russia after fast fashion brand Limé.

The system “combines planning, calendar management, material management, collection management, technical product design, quality management and production,” Khilmanovich adds.
