CGS today announced that Intradeco Apparel, Inc., and Gerber Childrenswear LLC each selected BlueCherry® Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). BlueCherry PLM is an essential module within the BlueCherry Enterprise Suite of solutions, and can be deployed as a standalone solution or as part of the end-to-end BlueCherry offering for apparel and consumer lifestyle brands. CGS made the announcement at its annual customer fashion, apparel and consumer goods event, INSIGHT 2018, taking place this week in Las Vegas.
Intradeco Apparel, a privately held company based in Miami focused on fashion basics, and Gerber Childrenswear, a leading marketer of children's everyday apparel and related products. Each entity began a search for a PLM solution to help increase overall productivity in product concept through product development and adoption. With such well-known brands as Fruit of the Loom, Izod, Jockey, Russell, Geoffrey Beene and Chaps, among others, Intradeco identified specific requirements that were needed in selection of a new system.
“We embarked on a process of digitizing our supply chain with the objective of taking our efficiency, speed and flexibility to the next level. Product Development and Product Lifecycle Management are key components of the supply chain,” said Luis Marquina, COO, Intradeco. “We proceeded to do an extensive search of PLM systems in the marketplace and found BlueCherry PLM to be the best fit for our needs. The CGS BlueCherry PLM solution not only had the comprehensive features that we needed, but the team also had the knowledge and expertise to back it up and the most committed to a true long-term partnership. With BlueCherry PLM, we could streamline and automate our global development process.”
