Sundance Completes PLM Implementation

The Sundance Catalog Company completes the implementation of the Centric 8 product lifecycle management (PLM) system from Centric Software, Inc., and is now adding to its investment in the suite.

 

Sundance has doubled its users to include the product development team as well as the technical design service team. “As the initial implementation proved its ability to further our business objectives, we see the benefit of involving more users in the process,” says Trish Robinson, vice president of product design for Sundance. “The value of having a single source of the truth is clear.”

 

Working with the Product Specification and Calendar Management modules of Centric 8 PLM, Sundance completed implementation in 11 weeks.

 

Sundance, which offers a predominantly exclusive, eclectic mix of clothing, jewelry, accessories, and home decor through its catalogs, Web site, and retail stores, selected the new solution to replace spreadsheets and a system whose inefficiency was preventing Sundance from growing the business as quickly as it warranted. The company is using Centric 8 to also help improve collaboration and productivity throughout its product development process.
