InterDesign Goes Live On Time and On Budget with Centric PLM(TM)

CAMPBELL, Calif., May 7, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- InterDesign, the consumer housewares company, has successfully gone live with Centric Software®'s Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) solution. Centric Software provides the most innovative enterprise solutions to fashion, retail, footwear, outdoor, luxury, consumer goods and home décor companies to achieve strategic and operational digital transformation goals.

Headquartered in Solon, Ohio, InterDesign sells bath, kitchen and home organization products to over 100 countries through its subsidiaries iDesign and mDesign. iDesign products are sold through retailers including Target, Bed Bath & Beyond and Wal-Mart, while mDesign is the e-commerce arm of InterDesign.

InterDesign selected Centric 8 PLM in 2019, driven by a need to respond quickly to the market in the context of rapid growth.

James Gallagher, Executive Vice President, Design, explains, "We lacked a cross-collaborative and cross-communicative platform. We needed a PLM to improve workflow efficiencies, delineate timelines and set priorities so that we could make critical decisions and launch new products, faster."

InterDesign chose Centric Home PLM on the basis of its highly adaptable and intuitive functionality and ability to handle every stage of the product lifecycle, aiming to enhance product innovation and boost productivity. iDesign is now live on Centric PLM, with mDesign set to follow.

"With Centric PLM, we have consolidated work formerly done through multiple homegrown solutions and Excel files into a single platform," explains Gallagher. "This enables us to unlock innovation faster and focus on delighting the customer, as we spend less time dealing with handoffs, miscommunication and blurred lines of responsibility."

"We went live on time and on budget, and the Centric team did a wonderful job of leading us through the process. Users are adapting well, and we are now getting our vendor community on board. We're thrilled with how smoothly the implementation has gone, and excited to move into the next phase."

"We're delighted to announce that InterDesign has successfully gone live on Centric Home PLM," says Chris Groves, President and CEO of Centric Software. "We look forward to continuing the partnership into the next phase of digital transformation, enabling InterDesign to respond with agility in a rapidly-shifting market."
