“Code District has been great to work with and always wants to do things the right way. In some cases, we have had to change our own design, and they are really helpful in completing our needs and making sure the integrity of the software is on point. They have been very professional and easy to work with.”

[1]

Unified Order Processing Platform

We consolidated two fragmented systems into a comprehensive Order Entry (OE) system and replaced the outdated technology of the Garment Design Tracking System (GDTS) system with a single platform. 

[2]

Centralized Asset Management

A robust PLM (Process Lifecycle Management) system was developed to unify design workflows. Designers could manage components, BOMs, and assets like images and documents from a single platform, improving efficiency.

Enhanced Productivity

The centralized system allowed sales, design, and production teams to access and share data seamlessly. This improved interdepartmental collaboration and accelerated decision-making.

Modern Database Architecture

The database schema was redesigned to eliminate redundancies and support real-time data updates. This provided accurate insights into inventory, orders, and production timelines.
