Roles of production planning and control department in garment industry
14.5.2.1 Task Scheduling:
It is the process of planning of time and action calendar for each order from the receipt of order to dispatch of the same. The task schedule comprises a list of jobs to be processed for the style of garment. Alongside of each tasks the production planner cited about when to start a task and what is target date for completion of the same. For example, scheduling planned cut date (PCD), line loading date etc.
14.5.2.2 Material Resource Planning (Inventory):
It is the planning and creation of material requirement sheet based on sample product and the specification sheet. The consumption of raw material such as fabric, button, sewing thread, and …show more content…
Based on the buyer requirement, production planning section decides on processes for the orders. Sometime additional operations or processes are removed to minimize cost of production.
14.5.2.5 Facility location:
For a garment industry which has multiple factories for production and are set for specific product, then production planner have to to identify which facility will be most appropriate for new orders.
14.5.2.6 Estimating quantity and costs of production:
The production planner should estimate the daily production based on garment style work content. Based on the estimated production rates, production runs and operator involvement planner also estimate production cost per pieces.
14.5.2.7 Capacity planning:
Production planning and control department plays a crucial role during booking of orders. They have to provide information regarding quantity of order they could accept based on their estimated production capacity.
14.5.2.8 Line planning:
It is the preparation of detailed line planning with daily production target for the production line. In majority of cases line planning is prepared after having discussion with production department and IE in the …show more content…
14.5.3.1 Calculation of SAM of a Garment
SAM or Standard Allowed Minute is used to measure task or work content of a garment. This term is widely used by industrial engineers and production people in the garment manufacturing industry. For the estimation of cost of making a garment SAM value plays a very important role (Martinich 1997). General Sewing Data (GSD) has defined set of codes for motion data for SAM calculation. There is also other methods through which one can calculate SAM of a garment without using synthetic data or GSD.
Calculation of SAM Using Synthetic Data
In this method 'Predetermined Time Standard' (PTS) code are used to establish 'Standard Time' of a garment or other sewing products.
Step 1: Select one operation for which one wants to calculate the SAM
Step 2: Study the motions of that operation by standing at the side of an operator and seeing how the operator is performing it and noting down all movements used by the operator in doing one complete cycle of
