Footwear company partners with Centric Software to build
foundational digital infrastructure
CAMPBELL, Calif., Oct. 11,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Centric Software® is
pleased to announce women's footwear brand Faryl Robin has selected
Centric PLM™ to drive greater efficiency and streamline data
management. 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, multi-category retail, grocery, food & beverage,
cosmetics & personal care and consumer electronics to achieve
strategic and operational digital transformation goals.
Founded in 2000 by footwear designer Faryl Gilston, Faryl Robin is dedicated to
offering accessible, fashionable and comfortable footwear for
women. Collaborating closely with leading retailers, Faryl Robin
designs and develops bespoke footwear collections, producing over
1,000 unique SKUs annually. Major retail giants like Walmart,
Target and Amazon Essentials are primary customers highlighting the
brand's commitment to quality and innovation.
With volumes of product-related data to juggle, Faryl Robin
decided to invest in a PLM solution to systematize data management
and empower more informed decision-making.
"We wanted to build a database to better collect information
around the work that we're doing. As we move towards a world where
AI and reporting tools are becoming more sophisticated, we need to
keep pace internally with the data we're collecting." explains
Gabe Biolos, head of Innovation
& Technology at Faryl Robin. "PLM is a piece of digital
infrastructure that will not only enhance our workflows today, but
help us realize some of our longer-term innovation goals as
well."
After carefully evaluating options, Faryl Robin was drawn to
Centric PLM for its user-friendly interface. "We chose Centric
because it has a flexible configuration that we can shape to our
needs," says Biolos. As the most configurable PLM software
available, Centric PLM allows adjustments on the fly to meet the
evolving demands of teams and products. Adaptability ensures the
Centric PLM platform remains effective and aligned with specific
and unique team requirements.
The implementation of Centric PLM promises to bring significant
improvements to communication within Faryl Robin, both internally
and with external stakeholders. Biolos envisions a future where
common design libraries and assets are shared across the company
reducing inefficiencies. "We'll have better visibility, be able to
ensure versions are stored more effectively and have fewer email
chains for feedback, which will help us be more efficient," he
explains.
Integrating Faryl Robin's vendors into Centric PLM is expected
to streamline collaboration and significantly boost the company's
sustainability initiatives. By leveraging Centric PLM's material
tracking capabilities Faryl Robin can monitor and manage their
resources more effectively. "Integrating with our vendors will
enable us to have a greater level of transparency and supply
chain-focused information to support our sustainability
initiatives," Biolos adds. This enhanced data-driven approach is a
key step toward fostering stronger partnerships and achieving the
company's long-term sustainability goals.
As the partnership with Centric PLM unfolds, Biolos is
optimistic about the transformation it will bring to Faryl Robin.
"Faryl Robin has been going through a lot of positive change over
the past few years. In another year or two, it feels like we'll be
operating in a really different, much more streamlined way, so stay
tuned!" he concludes, excited about the future possibilities.
"We're very happy to announce that Faryl Robin has selected
Centric PLM," says Chris Groves, CEO
of Centric Software. "We look forward to working with the Faryl
Robin team to create a strong digital foundation that will enable
them to build greater efficiency, collaboration and productivity
throughout the business."
