Established in 1975, Busana Apparel Group, a major garment manufacturer and exporter with 30 manufacturing facilities located in Indonesia and Ethiopia, aims to expand its business by collaborating with other companies and creating a supply chain ecosystem. The company produces and exports 50 million pieces of clothing annually.

“Centric PLM” software helps Busana store information in a central location, eliminating email reliance and standardizing processes. The software offers enterprise solutions for planning, designing, developing, sourcing, pricing, and selling products. During the project, Busana was supported by Centric`s implementation team.

Manish Virmani, CMO of Busana, reports: “By implementing ‘Centric PLM’, we are able to consolidate our product development information and standardize our processes. The ability to capture data from the source has significantly reduced the time and effort required for repetitive data entry, and the system has helped us keep track of the entire product development at any point in time.”

“Centric PLM” saved Busana eight hours per style in customer communication, resulting in a 15% reduction in sample production lead time.The collaboration with Centric will improve raw material traceability, supply chain optimization, and end-of-life product sustainability. “We are proud to have Busana as one of our customers. As this partnership shows, a lot can be achieved with the right solution, teamwork, and collaboration,” says Chris Groves, CEO of Centric Software.
