Case Study: Barco achieves faster response to market trends with Centric Software

Barco Uniforms Reacts Faster to Market Trends with Centric PLM™

Barco, a leading professional apparel company known for premium uniforms and Grey’s Anatomy scrubs, was facing growing pressure from rapid business expansion, tighter market timelines, and increasing cost demands. As its business doubled over five years, the company found that spreadsheets and email were no longer enough to manage product development efficiently, so it turned to Centric Software and Centric PLM to respond faster to changing trends and customer opportunities.

Centric Software implemented Centric PLM to centralize product information, replace multiple Excel files with one version of the truth, and improve visibility across styles, seasons, and design data. The result was a smoother, on-time, on-budget rollout of the first phase, plus clear gains in speed, efficiency, and information access; Barco says it can now manage changes more quickly and plans to expand usage into more Centric Software modules for even greater impact.
