Centric PLM training and adoption

Turn a deep PLM into simple actions, from the style to the approved collection.

Centric PLM structures collections, tech packs, materials, suppliers and development calendars. Its functional depth is its value, and it is also what makes some journeys hard to remember from one season to the next.

 Our solutions

Centric PLM adoption for your users.

Deliver help, training and announcements directly inside Centric PLM, without touching the application.

01

Support creative roles, not PLM experts

A designer, a product manager and a buyer do not open the same screens and do not use them at the same frequency. A single training course prepares none of the three properly.

02

Make tech packs and collections reliable

A wrongly referenced material, a missing colourway or an incomplete tech pack propagates all the way to the supplier and the collection calendar. These are the steps to secure on the screen itself.

03

Take the load off your key users

After go-live, key users absorb the day-to-day questions at the expense of their own work. Help displayed on the screen takes over the most repetitive questions.

 Measurable results

From first steps to autonomy.

 Typical user journey

Continuous support inside Centric PLM.

Step 1

Preparing for go-live

Each job role replays its own actions — create a tech pack, edit a materials bill, approve a collection — on a replica of Centric PLM, without touching real data.

Step 2

Contextual help

At the slightest doubt inside the application, the steps to follow appear on the screen where the action happens, with the points of attention specific to your business rules.

Step 3

Measurement & improvement

Real usage is measured screen by screen: which sites drop off, which step blocks, which content should be revised first.

Frequently asked questions

Centric PLM adoption: your questions.

How do you succeed in a Centric PLM go-live?
Moving to Centric PLM changes the daily actions of very different job roles: design, product management, sourcing, quality. The method is to have them practise before the switchover on a simulated replica with K-STUDIO, to certify them before go-live, then to keep the guidance K-NOW running through hypercare— the set-up Knowmore deploys on the PLM environments it supports.
How do you make tech packs reliable?
A PLM is only worth the quality of what is entered in it: material reference, colourway, supplier, target cost. These rules are recalled directly in the field concerned, at the moment of entry, rather than in an attached document.
How do you support teams spread across several sites and languages?
Help content is tailored by brand, by country and by language, then delivered inside the application without touching Centric PLM.
How do you measure PLM adoption?
K-VALUE measures usage screen by screen: which sites really apply the process, which fields stay empty, which workflow steps are bypassed. Improvements are then prioritised on observed rather than reported usage.
