IMPROVING OPERATOR EFFICIENCY THROUGH IE TECHNIQUES
Higher productivity brings higher margin in a business. And increment in Production efficiency level reduces garment manufacturing cost. Hence factory can make more profit ANITTA ABRAHAM
through productivity improvement. The main issues in sewing section are: anittaabraham21@gmail.com
• Low efficiency of sewing lines.
• Unbalanced Line and low Production due to skill Gap. 9539158654
• No permanent allocation of operators on lines.
• No ownership of operators to supervisors which make it difficult to handle the operators.
The sewing section in a garment firm is a most problematic section as compared with other value chains. Most of the time, failure to meet delivery time is because of the sewing
section. Sewing operations (with respect to cutting and finishing) demands high skill in machine handling as well as material handling and more chances of producing defective
products. So we have to give more attention to stitching tasks than fabric cutting and other value chains of garment production.
Firstly, high WIP in traditional type of batch production is the major problem faced by industries. Due to high WIP, the throughput time as well as rework level is very high.
In some cases, even though the operator has completed the sewing operations, the garment cannot be packed because of high WIP. Also, the defective parts are hidden inside the
batches and it is very difficult to clear them while completing the final order quantity. This is the reason why garment professionals seem to work like fire fighters; because they are
always in hurry for searching the missing garment pieces all over the shop floor.
Secondly, in batch processing (Progressive Bundling system), flexibility towards the style change over cannot be achieved easily; which is the current demand (Decreasing order size
and increasing number of style) of retail industry. To meet this requirement, production layout should be designed in such a way that it should hold minimum WIP and should be
flexible enough to the changing need of order.
Thirdly, in batch process, since the operators are given specific jobs, they know one or few more operations only. Though he /she may have good skill and can work more efficiently
Graduation
on one (allocated job only) operation; he /she cannot work immediately on some other operation. This is another need of today’s industry, because the fashion is changing frequently Showcase
and the work force should be capable enough to cope with this change. To achieve this operator should be multi-skilled; which can be served by regular training and converting
long assembly lines into small manufacturing cells. 2020
virtual edition
Workload fluctuation and process balancing among operators is another problem in batch processing, because one operator is given one operation at a time. So the operator who
is performing easier and low time consuming jobs can pile up a huge amount of WIP whereas in the critical operations (operations which need more time and skill) there is lagging
which causes unbalanced WIP between machines and the work load. This research tries to address all these problems of garment industry by implementing lean manufacturing

.Methodology- The design of the research is conclusive in natureThis research is a type of conclusive research which is called
descriptive research. Primary data needs to be generated which is quantitative and qualitative in nature. First, personal interviews
with the experts and second is observational technique.Once the data are collected,critical path needs to be identified from the
network diagram so that the whole project can be monitored correctly and then crashed with 3d prototyping Similarly, comparative
study can be done between virtual 3D sampling and conventional method of sampling.After the analysis proper tracking of the
garment can be done and crashed. Virtual 3D sampling will enable us to reduce the lead time and find the most economical way
of sampling. 8.
Final deliverables- The result can tell us that the lead time and cost can be reduced if we can change the process or utilise better
technology .Virtual prototyping is a way to reduce lead time and can help in making work easier and more efficient with other
works such as fabric development in parallel to give more time to other critical or sub-critical activities. The outcomes of data
analysis fulfills the objectives of the research. Virtual 3D sampling enables us to reduce the lead time and find the most economical

questionnaire. • Study of sales data of STOP to understand market scenario and requirements of sizes according to the region. • Study of sales data of non-private labels and
their size ranges and product availability. • Study of competitors by understanding the options offered by MOB’S like Shoppers Stop. • Study of size charts of competitors and
proposing a size chart along with grading.
FINAL DELIVERABLES: • Following are the proposed size charts developed by comparison with size charts of mostly accepted brands and local tailor shops (to understand plus
size body shapes and measurements).
• By introducing new styles in the mint-fresh concept of plus-size clothing in India, Shoppers Stop can hope to cash in on the ignored segment of big people on the lookout for
fashionable, plus size men’s clothing. • With private label brands, Shoppers Stop can ensure profitability as there is no middle-man, control the price-points and decide whether
to discount or not, unlike others brands. • Plus-size fashion is very popular abroad. `The Big and Tall Stores' there address the oversized, but in India this concept has been
overlooked by our fashion industry despite the fact that one in every four people in the world today, according to research, is obese. So I hope shopper’s stop will be able to fill

study is regarding tracking the operators real time production output with the help of smart solutions. The concept of the smart solutions is to make use of current technology
Internet of things which has brought the fourth revolution in Industries and came up as Industrial Internet of things for industry based application. SPMS is meant to collect and
distribute real time data of events on the production floor. This data must be understandable and useful for decision making. Monitored data should help the production team to
respond timely on the events that may affect the desired result. Such a system should also alarm and inform respective departments concerning all recognized faults. SPMS is not
just display boards that show production data, it also has a reporting and administration module, where stored data can be analysed to find trends, estimations and projections for Manvi Grover

Objective 2- To plan the range from all the products developed during Product Development by considering- In-season performance of the Indigo Nation. a competitor analysis 7019651020
with major brands and provide feasible solutions to boost the performance.
Methodology- The data required for achieving the above objective were as follows: Time taken for sampling, interaction with the vendors, and interaction with the designers is noted
and to maintain a track sheet of all the sampling activities for the given brand. Understanding the steps involved in sampling keeping a track of all the processes and analyzing the
cause of delays. Delays in Sampling Process There were several delays in receiving the sample from the sampling team of the vendor. The same is showed below into Fishbone
Diagram-
Final Deliverables- Delays in Sampling- The Product Development Team must have sufficient data regarding the samples to be made before conducting the meeting with the
sampling team of the vendor As many as possible fabric samples must be given along with the pictures. The pictures must be large enough in size to be interpreted with ease.
Proper notes must be made during the meetings. The Product Development team must make it a point to keep a check on the progress daily . If possible, frequent visits to be made
to the vendors. To keep a track of the samples, number of days must be allotted within which the styles must be made. The number of days depends upon the nature of style. The
number of samples given to one particular vendor must depend upon the reliability and efficiency of the vendor Comparative Mapping- Indigo Nation should increase number of
options for core categories. The starting price point of Shirts of Indigo Nation is more than its competitors. More design elements can be included so that the value is at par with
the money They can try to bring down their shirt exit price The price of Basic Tee is much higher than the competitors A lot of deviations are observed in the starting price point
of Indigo Nation’s woven bottoms whereas its competitor ZARA is providing all bottoms at the same starting price point Indigo Nation's colored denims are very much more
expensive(2499, 3499, 3999) as compared to its competitors (starting price for UCB, ZARA and Mango). Sell Through More efforts must be paid towards the fit of the garment Graduation

REDUCING FABRIC CONSUMPTION TO IMPROVISE COSTING THROUGH SCRAP
ANALYSIS
The fabric consumption for each style will be given by the merchandiser in Bill of Materials (BOM) while releasing the Purchase order along with uploading it in the
ERP software. Fabric store issues fabric according to the issue slip given by the merchandiser for this particular Purchase order quantity. Since the production is 23
happening in-house it is possible to edit the purchase order quantity after production. Because of this, purchase order quantity decreases significantly after
Rahul M
production thus increasing the fabric consumption per garment. So unexpected fabric wastage is happening either because of quality issues in fabric or by increased

end bits formation which is also not recorded in ERP software for costing and re-use. Fabric store should be able to stop defected fabric rolls from issuing it for
cutting. Measures should be taken to reduce end bit formation. End bits data should be recorded and entered into the ERP software for issuing it for re-use. 7012470299
OBJECTIVESS OF THE PROJECT: Primary Objective: The Primary Objective of the project is to reduce the direct material cost incurred to the company. Secondary
Objectives: • To improve the quality of fabric being issued for cutting, hence reduce the fabric wastage. • Standardize the process of roll allocation for spreading
based on shades to help splicing. • Create SOP and new material flow for recording End-bit data in ERP software. 2 • To reduce the manufacturing cost of the
product and therefore impacting the final selling price for the goods
METHODOLOGY: Problem is identified as lack of supervision and update in BOM (Bill of materials) therefore Research is carried out in DMAIC form: The problem is
defined as wastage of fabric in the form of end bits 6 months End bit data on Work order & Article level for Scrap & End Bits was collected to support the facts and

their needs and comforts. Also, the demand for stylish adaptive clothing is rising as such clothing, apart from providing solutions to disabled people,
also provides a stylish look.

Fit analysis & measurement standardisation of women’s dress with prototype development
In today’s era when fashion plays a pivotal role in conveying one’s status and personality, everyone is looking for the trendiest
of clothes with the best of quality, more often than not, meaning branded clothes. But what do consumers really mean when
they say they are looking for clothing with good quality? Quality could mean many things. It differs from person to person and
is dependent on their personal taste. Some consider fabric with a soft feel as good quality as it could be the right type and Abhinav Ashish, S Tejasvini

content of fabric they are looking for in clothes. Some people might consider a unique or attractive design as good quality tejasvinisatish@gmail.com
and some may feel that clothing with the right fit is good quality. Often a combination of any two or all of these could mean 9886810692 / 9947594231(Abhinav),
9500978482(Tejasvini)
good quality to a consumer. What is often observed now is that a person would prefer buying something that ―fits them
well as opposed to what just ―looks or ―feels right; or at least something that is perceived as well fitting. Consumers’
perception of garment fit is often influenced by traditional cultural characteristics and also depends on the economic,
technological and social conditions.
Fit issues in ready to wear apparel causes for retailers and consumers alike. Retailers must strive to better understand their
consumer’s perceptions of themselves in order to help them purchase properly fitting clothing. Retailers of apparel must
understand their fit preferences, fit issues, and diversity of the body sizes.
