Centric Software® proudly shares the success story of its client, Prodiet Medical Nutrition, a trailblazer in clinical nutrition in Brazil. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to plan, formulate, develop, procure, manufacture and sell consumer goods products in food & beverage, grocery, fashion and multi-category retail to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
Prodiet is renowned for developing cutting-edge formulas in the clinical nutrition sector. Dedicated to fostering health and well-being, the company offers a comprehensive range of products for both home and hospital care, focusing on recovery and sustained nutritional support. Over the past five years, Prodiet has experienced remarkable growth, fueled by a strong commitment to continuous improvement.
However, this expansion brought challenges. One significant hurdle was the need for a secure and efficient exchange of information within the technical department. Luciana Dutra, Head of R&D and Regulatory Affairs, reflects on the company’s efforts to find a digital solution. “We conducted an extensive search for a tool that could deliver both immediate and long-term benefits. That’s when we discovered Centric PLM™. It’s the best fit for our needs, offering a stronger foundation for the company’s future.”
By replacing manual spreadsheets and enabling remote collaboration with integrated, accessible data, Prodiet has transformed its innovation process. Camila Mendes, R&D Analyst, shares a clear example. “When tasked with developing a new product, I’m able to simulate four different formulations in just 30 minutes to an hour. Previously, this would have taken several days.”
Centric PLM also ensures precise data management and compliance with regulations from Anvisa and the European Community, cutting regulatory analysis time from ten days to just one. This efficiency has been key to accelerating Prodiet’s international expansion.
