Legacy System Modernization
“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.”

The Challenges_
The Challenge
SwatFame relied on multiple disconnected systems to manage its design, order processing, and inventory workflows. This fragmentation created inefficiencies and slowed operations. Below are the key challenges SwatFame faced:
-
SwatFame's core workflows were divided across legacy systems like VB6-based Worksheet Entry and GDTS for order processing, AS400 for ERP, and Picture Planner for catalog generation. The lack of integration forced teams to manually transfer data between systems, leading to errors and delays.

SwatFame partnered with our team to modernize its legacy systems, focusing on creating a centralized, scalable web-based system that met their operational needs. Here's how we addressed their challenges:
Get the full case study
[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We consolidated two fragmented systems into a comprehensive Order Entry (OE) system and replaced the outdated technology of the Garment Design Tracking System (GDTS) system with a single platform.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.
[3]
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.
[4]
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.
