Lectra builds software and connected systems for the fashion, automotive, and furniture industries. In apparel, its tools cover pattern design, grading, marker making, and the link to cutting room production, tying digital design data to the machines that actually cut fabric. For brands and manufacturers, Lectra often spans the gap between technical design and the factory floor.
Because Lectra reaches from CAD into production, the data inside it is the data that costing, sourcing, and the cutting room rely on. Patterns, graded specs, and markers determine material yield and what the factory makes. If that information stays locked in Lectra, every downstream tool works from a stale copy. When your product reads Lectra data and writes its output back, it stays on the accurate source and becomes part of the production pipeline rather than a side trip.
What we connect
- Patterns and graded specs, kept aligned across your product and Lectra
- Markers and yield data, so costing and the cutting room work from real numbers
- Materials and fabrics referenced in the style
- Tech pack data: measurements, points of measure, and construction notes
- Production handoff data, so a finished style moves toward the factory cleanly
Common use cases
- A design or costing product that pulls patterns and markers out of Lectra and runs its own logic on them
- A sourcing or yield app that keeps material figures aligned with the Lectra source in real time
- A QA or grading-check tool that reads graded specs and posts results back as the record of truth
- An integration that moves finished design data from Lectra into PLM and production
How we build it
- We map the exact objects, file formats, and events your use case needs in Lectra, and write the integration scope with acceptance criteria.
- We prototype against the Lectra formats and tooling with AI assistance, so a working spike exists in days, not weeks.
- We write and review the real integration code: auth, sync, format handling, error handling, and reconciliation.
- We ship it, document it, and keep it healthy as the platform changes.
