OTS Transforms Data Management with Successful Centric PLM Implementation

Centric Software® is delighted to announce the release of a success story featuring its customer, OTS, a leading Italian manufacturing company. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to plan, design, develop, source, buy, make, price, allocate, sell and replenish products such as fashion, luxury, footwear, outdoor, home and related goods like cosmetics & personal care as well as multi-category retail to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.

Founded over 20 years ago, OTS is headquartered in Piove di Sacco, Italy. Specializing in ready-to-wear clothing, OTS today serves high-end clients such as Kering and the LVMH Group, offering end-to-end services from design to the finished product. Renowned for its professionalism, reliability, precision, and commitment to sustainability, OTS has earned the trust and admiration of the world’s most prestigious fashion brands.

In the past few years, OTS has seen exponential growth with increasing numbers of samples in the range of thousands of runs per year. This production boom highlighted inefficiencies in workflows, previously managed through spreadsheets and siloed tools. Patrick Berto, OTS Controller and IS Specialist, explains, “We recognized that managing all our information without robust software would quickly become overly complex and a significant source of errors. Collaborating with leading brands, it was only logical to equip ourselves with the best tools. That’s why we chose Centric PLM™, a solution widely trusted in the fashion industry.”

Just one year after its phased implementation—delivered on time and within budget—the company is successfully connecting its various departments involved in product development. “The flexibility of Centric PLM allows us to adopt it step by step, with immediate improvements in data management and workflows,” adds Berto.

OTS is already witnessing transformative benefits—Berto explains, “About half of OTS employees work directly in Centric PLM, while 100% of them benefit indirectly from streamlined workflows and faster production timelines—outcomes driven by centralizing all product data into a single source of truth.”
