Camper chooses Centric Software Product Lifecycle Management

Camper users also will include the company’s internal product development teams that work in the off-shore factories.

The footwear company selected Centric after extensive vendor screening, explains Sito Luis Salas, chief operating officer at Camper. “Centric 8 is easy to implement, learn and use, is flexible, and will be able to support the continuous changes Camper experiences throughout the product development process,” he says.

Camper will use the Centric 8 solution to replace outdated PLM software and spreadsheets and to support a company reorganization, according to Luis Salas. The Centric 8 solution will provide “a single version of the truth” about products, enable improved internal and external collaboration during the reorganization, and more easily integrate the off-shore development team into all changes. “Centric is excited to partner with Camper, a company known for over a century of innovative leadership in the footwear industry,” says Chris Groves, president and CEO of Centric. Camper valued the two companies’ shared culture of creativity and innovation, as well as Centric’s footwear industry knowledge and experience, he adds. “Centric’s innovative, out-of-the-box, configurable software—combined with Centric’s Agile DeploymentSM methodology—will help Camper in its ambitious organization and growth goals in the worldwide footwear market.”
