Barco Uniforms Ties the Knot with Centric Software

Barco Uniforms is a recognized leader of design innovation in the premium professional apparel industry, designing award-winning premium uniforms that elevate and honor individuals in the healthcare, food service and hospitality industries.

As a company continuously growing, Barco Uniforms decided to invest in a PLM solution to facilitate and control the process of introducing new products to market.

Barco Uniforms sought a PLM to eliminate unnecessary complexity and to reduce the risk of product launch failures due to missed deadlines. As a business that thrives upon product innovation, Barco Uniforms underwent an exercise of mapping ownership, processes, controls and accountability for product line development.

“With the company expansion and success over the past few years, we needed to streamline our product development processes. Our management was lacking the overall product visibility needed to make decisions early enough in the go-to-market process to be sure that products get to market on time,” explains Darren Holman, Director Product Commercialization.

Barco Uniforms chose Centric Software, citing communication, efficiency and usability as the criteria driving their choice. “Centric’s out of the box solution is configurable and easy to use and doesn’t require costly or time consuming customization. Our teams will benefit from a single actionable version of the truth which will facilitate accurate product information sharing while reducing our time to market,” declares Darren Holman, Director Product Commercialization.

“I am confident that Centric will help us move new product designs to finished goods on-time, of high quality quickly adapting to market expectations,” continues Darren Holman, Director Product Commercialization.

“We are delighted to have been chosen by Barco. This company has experienced exponential growth over the last few years and we look forward to accelerating their time to market for even greater future success,” says Chris Groves, President and CEO of Centric.
