MANGO has selected Centric Software, Inc. as its strategic partner for its product lifecycle management (PLM) solutions.
“MANGO already is a knowledgeable user of PLM solutions and has a strong understanding of the productivity gains PLM systems can deliver,” explains Sergio Odriozola, MANGO’s product director. “Now, MANGO’s goal is to achieve benefits that extend beyond productivity, and deliver operating and strategic advantage.” To meet its strategic goals, including aggressive global growth plans, MANGO conducted an exhaustive search for a PLM solution partner to deploy worldwide. MANGO plans to deploy the centric solution across users and external suppliers worldwide in Spain, Bangladesh, China, India, Morocco, Turkey and Vietnam.
“MANGO selected Centric as its strategic partner because of Centric’s demonstrated PLM product leadership, and its customer-focused culture and successful track record of innovation,” says Odriozola. “Strategically, Centric and MANGO share a similar vision in the development and use of PLM in the apparel industry. We feel comfortable that our two companies can grow and innovate together.”
The multinational MANGO also chose to work with the Centric PLM suite because of its ease-of-use and simplicity, and because of Centric’s unique focus on the fashion industry, according to Odriozola. “Centric’s products and consultants incorporate a deep understanding of the business needs of the fast-fashion market in its software,” he says.
“MANGO’s current business and future strategies are exciting, and Centric is fully committed to this innovative leader’s success,” states Chris Groves, president and CEO of Centric Software. “I am delighted that MANGO selected Centric as its PLM solution partner, and look forward to a long and beneficial relationship.”
