Designs can be converted into PDF format and easily be sent by e-mail, for example to other production facilities in the Far East.

Moreover, buyers can purchase materials based on these documents.

"Geac RunTime is the standard for streamlining design processes", says Tinka Doorgeest, styling coordinator at V&D.

"The solution offers a comprehensive set of tools to develop clothing collections faster and more efficiently.

Geac RunTime supports the entire process: from the first sketches and storyboards to the final, detailed technical designs.

It is RunTime's user-friendliness that has made several retail chains decide to start using RunTime for their design processes. V&D's apparel division is one of them, and eighteen designers in this division now use Geac RunTime."

Royal Vendex KBB is the largest non-food retailer in the Netherlands with net sales of € 4.1 billion and an estimated market share of 8 percent in the Dutch non-food retailing sector.

The Group is also active in six other European countries (Belgium, Luxembourg, Denmark, Germany, France and Spain).

Geac is a global enterprise software company that provides best-in-class technology products and services to help organisations do more with less in an increasingly competitive environment, amidst growing regulatory pressure, and in response to other business issues confronting the CFO.

Geac RunTime, which has hundreds of customers in the fashion and apparel industry, develops and sells software for the design and pre-production phases of the manufacturing process, product data management, customer relationship management and sales force automation.
