Brand Control Systems

One of the major benefits to CLC Consortium member institutions is the ability to gain access to the leading brand control systems in the licensing industry. Since 1998, CLC has made major annual investments in building and expanding these systems to improve the speed and efficiency of the licensing process. There are three key elements of these services that allow institutions and licensees to interact in an end-to-end digital environment:




The Logos on Demand program allows licensees to reproduce an institution's brand identity with 100% accuracy on merchandise since all logos are provided to licensees in production-ready formats. This service is provided free of charge to all CLC member institutions, and is available to participating licensees on a subscription basis. The program is managed by J. Patton, which also manages similar programs for many of the leading licensors in the industry. For more information on the Logos on Demand service, please visit http://www.logosondemand.net/clc/





The Stitches on Demand program offers pre-approved digital embroidery files of many common logos for institutions in the CLC Consortium. Accessing these files allows licensees the ability to produce 100% accurate renditions of logos on embroidered goods, further enhancing the consistency of the institution’s brand identity in the retail market.

CLC developed the first operational online design approval system in the entire licensing industry. While others have attempted to replicate the system, iCLC remains the industry leader given its many enhancements since its original launch in 1999. Today, more than 95% of all products and designs are submitted via iCLC for approval by licensing directors at CLC Consortium institutions, allowing licensees the ability to produce and distribute approved merchandise to retailers as quickly as possible.
