Case Study: Ernsting’s family achieves more transparent, efficient product development with Centric Software

Ernsting’s Family Chooses Centric Software’s Full PLM Team Support

Ernsting’s family, one of Germany’s largest cross-channel textile retailers, needed to replace an aging in-house product data management system that no longer connected all parts of product development. Design, technical design, quality assurance, fitting development, and procurement were running on separate tools, leaving product information fragmented and workflows less transparent. To support growth and improve collaboration, the company turned to Centric Software and Centric PLM.

Centric Software implemented Centric PLM and later Centric Application Management Services (CAMS) to provide ongoing PLM support, process optimization, and technical expertise. The result was a fully connected workflow, better data consistency, improved quality planning, faster issue resolution, and less downtime through pre-testing and off-hours deployments. With Centric Software, Ernsting’s family reports more efficient operations, higher user adoption, and the ability to focus more on core business and collection development.
