Campbell, CA, Feb. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Centric Software® is delighted to announce the release of a success story about its customer, Tom Tailor.
Founded in Hamburg in 1962, the core market of the Tom Tailor Group was traditionally located in Germany but has grown to 30 countries including Austria, Switzerland, South Eastern Europe and Russia. Now, with approximately 3,400 employees, over 640 own-retail stores and 8,585 other points of sale, about one third of the company's sales are currently generated abroad.
Having grown substantially both nationally and internationally in recent years, Tom Tailor's teams used to struggle with the demands of administrative data entry and a lack of transparency between disconnected legacy systems for managing product information. Product development was not intuitive, and teams could not access client server-based product development software in meetings or outside the office.
"We had a lot of different client-server based software that was outdated, slow and not intuitive," says Tom Tailor's former Senior Manager of Core Applications, "We had no single, integrated system that our teams could go to for all data pertaining to a product."
The company needed a solution with strong fashion foundations that was flexible enough to allow it to configure the different processes and best practices, and it particularly wanted a web-based solution that would enable users to work flexibly while traveling or outside the office. After thorough research, Tom Tailor decided to implement Centric's Fashion Product Lifecycle Management (PLM).
"Tom Tailor Sourcing (TTS) now works extensively in PLM, sharing all essential product data, so we no longer have to send emails around the world to get simple things done... We can also put plans in place for emergencies, so that not all our work is allocated to one region."
Tom Tailor is looking ahead to a bright future with Centric.
"I just cannot imagine a world without Centric PLM, today or in the future."
