Centric Software Inc will present seminars focused on product lifecycle management (PLM) software strategies for the apparel industry in London, Paris and New York this October.
Centric is the provider of Centric 8 PLM software for the apparel and fashion, luxury goods and consumer goods industries. In its upcoming events, Centric will highlight new capabilities that enable easy creation and management of dynamic collection books and catalogs by merchandising and sales teams. Leveraging Centric's industry-first, patent-pending Collection Book for Fashion iPad App's, the collection books and catalogs synchronize dynamically with up-to-date product option and availability information in Centric 8 PLM software.
“These new capabilities in Centric 8 deliver customized catalogs and collection presentations rapidly to sales staff for presentation to customers on an appealing mobile device,” says Chris Groves, CEO of Centric. “The catalogs and collection books replace error-prone, paper-based systems that offer customers out-of-date or unavailable products,” he explains. “Sales impact and customer satisfaction rise sharply when errors and missteps are removed from the sales process.”
