Case Study: Shoes For Crews achieves faster product development with Centric Software

Shoes for Crews Saves Time and Money with Centric PLM™

Shoes For Crews, a longtime leader in slip-resistant footwear for hazardous workplaces, was undergoing a major business transformation while expanding its product portfolio and building a new in-house product development team. During this rapid growth, the company needed a better way to manage style data, collaboration, and product development than email and Excel, and turned to Centric Software’s Centric PLM.

Centric Software implemented a cloud-based Centric PLM solution that centralized item master data, improved collaboration across locations, and streamlined testing and certification tracking. The system helped Shoes For Crews go live in just 42 business days, accelerated presentation creation from about a week to minutes, and delivered major efficiency and cost-saving benefits through faster, more accurate product development.
