INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY

Organization is a social unit which is deliberately constructed and reconstructed to seek specific
goal. An organization came into existence when there are number of people in communication
and relationship to each other and is willing to contribute towards common endeavour. the
evolution of organization begins from early stages of human civilization , when two or more
people began to cooperate and combine together in fulfilling their basic need of foods, clothing
shelter and protecting life. Thus an organization is born when people combining their efforts for
same common purpose. It is a universal truth than an individual is unable to fulfil his needs and
desire alone because his lacks strength ,ability and resources .so he seeks to corporation of other
people who share goal with him.

This organization study is carried out in BLISSFUL GARMENTS.

FUNCTIONS OF VARIOUS DEPARTMENTS

MECHANDISING DEPARTMENT

Merchandising is a specialized management functions within the fashion

industry. It is the business that moves the world fashion from designers
showroom to retail sales floor and in to the hands of consumers. It is the
internal planning that takes place within a retail organization in order ensures
adequate amount of merchandise are on hand to be sold at prices that the
consumers are willing to pay to profitable operation.

Following are the responsibilities of merchandisers which gives importance to

them

1. Internal& external communication,

2. Sampling,

3. Lab dips,

4. Accessories& trims,

5. Preparing internal order sheets,

6. Preparing purchase orders,

7. Advising and assisting production,

8. Advising quality department about quality level,

9. Mediating production and quality departments,

10. Giving shipping instructions and following shipping,

 11. Helping documentation department,

12. Taking responsibility for inspections andFollowing shipment.

PURCHASE ORDER

PO is an external document which is issued by buyer in the name of Sangar

Overseas Export Pvt.Ltd; it is an evidence as well as support of order confirmed
in the favour of company.

Po include the following information-

1. Delivery date 6. Terms if sale

2. FOB 7. Currency
3. Ship cancel date 8. L/C
4. Destination 9. Quantity
5. Ship mode 10. Size break up / colour break up

Apparel export merchandising may be defined as ‘all the planning &

activities involved right from the buyer communication & order receiving till
the execution or shipment of the order by fulfilling the following factors (Six
Rights):

Right Merchandise: Retailers must fill their shelves with the

merchandise that customer wants.

Right Place: The location of the merchandise is of prime importance since it

decides the accessibility. Much merchandise is seasonal in nature and must be
on hand when it is most needed.

Right Time: Much merchandise is seasonal in nature and must be on hand

when it is most needed.

Right Quantity: A profitable balance between volume of sales and

amount of inventory is the desired goal.

Right Price: Merchandiser must arrive at a price that is high enough to

give the store profit and yet low enough to meet the competition and
customers expectations.

Right Promotion: Right balance between the investment and the appeal
created for the customers.

The successful execution of any garment export order depends on the work
performance of a merchandiser. Merchandiser is the person who plans and
coordinates all the activities right from the order procuring and till the
shipment order. A merchandiser should have the comprehensive knowledge
of his work procedures and responsibilities so that he could perform his job
efficiently and effectively. In the apparel export industry, a merchandiser has
to perform the following functions;

Communication: It is one of the foremost functions of merchandiser

because the merchandiser has to communicate with different levels of people
in his day to day activities.

Planning & Programming: A merchandiser has to check the order

requirement, planning for the given order, programming for various activities,
proper allocation of work to the assistants.
Follow ups: It includes sending of samples at various stages of order, buyer
and buyer house for sample and other approvals.

Decision making: A merchandiser has to make several decisions during the

order processing like giving approvals like fabrics, color, design,
accessories, and packing, selection of suppliers and vendors, selection of
buyers, sometimes time extensions for order shipment.

Sourcing & Purchasing: A merchandiser may have to do sourcing and

purchasing for raw materials and accessories, suppliers and vendors, new
designs, new
buyers.

Controlling: This is the crucial activities for any merchandiser. A

merchandiser has to make sure that all the activities are carried out as per the
planning and even if there is any deviation, he/she should make the
alternatives measures.

Coordination: Merchandiser has to coordinate in such way to reduce the

uncertainties and difficulties and if there is a problem arises, the merchandiser
has to support and lend helping hand in order to complete the task
successfully in the given period. Both the controlling and coordinating
activities complement each other and a merchandiser has to adopt the both
accordingly,

Negotiation: It is the activity of convincing, compromising and cooperation

which would benefit the both parties involved in the negotiation.

Costing: It is the process of estimating the expenditure of a given product and

the subsequent price. It is another crucial function because mostly order
conformation depends on the price offered to the buyers. The merchandiser
should know the current prices and rates of various products and processes to
do the accurate costing.

Meeting: There are two types of meeting a merchandiser has to be involved.

First type, a merchandiser has to conduct the meeting with the concern
department in charges to discuss about the proceedings and the status of the
running order. In second type, a merchandiser has to attend the meeting with
the superiors or buyers or business people in giving reporting or participation
or discussion.

Forecasting: Forecasting is the activity of predicting the future happenings or

problems. A merchandiser has to predict the future uncertainties in the current
order or industry so that alternative actions or corrective measures can be
taken in advance this also includes giving suggestion or ideas about new
technologies or new products or latest industry trends
. CUTTING SUB DEPARTMENT

1. Layering and spreading

2. Cutting
3. Bundling and ticketing
4. Fusing area
5. QA department

TICKETING

Once the pattern pieces are cut by the cutting machine, they are then ticketed. Cut
components are group together as per their sizes and taken to the checking table.
Here the cut components are inspected for any error. It is very important to take
care that pieces cut from two different bolts of fabric are not mixed up. This is
because within lot there bolt to bolt variation in colour shade.
FUSING

Fusing is also carried out in the cutting room itself. The parts to be fused are
separated from the bundle. The fusing material (like interlining) is cut according to
size of the component to be fused. The component along with the cut fusing
material are kept between to paper sheets and the pack is passed through the fusing
machine by means of temperature and pressure fusing takes place at particular
speed and for a particular time. The pack comes out at the other end on conveyors
and the pieces are removed and re-bundled.

Parameters affecting the fusing process:

 Pressure – Pressure applied to the fabric should be adequate so that

even contact between the interlining and cloth takes place and uniform
heat is supplied to the adhesive. Pressure should be adequate for the
correct penetration of resin among the fibres of fabric.
 Temperature – Itis another important parameter. It depends upon the
type of resin used in fusing process. It should be high enough to change
the dry thermoplastic resin into a molten state so that it can flow properly
between the fabrics. If temperature is low it gives proper low of resin and
if is high it gives to much flow of resin and the resin will come out.
 Time – Time should also be adequate along with temperature and
pressure. It should be long enough so that melting and penetration of
resin among the fibres of fabric can takes place.
CHECKING

The ticked panels are now sending to the checking are for inspection of every
individual pieces for any objectionable faults. Panels having faults like wrong
grain line, in appropriate size, incorrect shape and any fabric defects likes holes,
cut , shade, variation etc. That are not within the acceptable quality parameters, are
removed from the cut lay. A cutting component checking report is filled for the
total quantity cut, checked and approvals. The rejected pieces are sent back and
equal no of trash panel are separately cut, replaced in the set and ticketed with the
same no. as the rejected once. Other mend able faults are marked with an alteration
sticker and passed on. These will be spotted out during garment finishing or
washing.

BUNDLING

The checked components of one style and in one size are now clubbed and bundled
using tie. The size of bundle depends upon the requirements of the production
plant. Each bundle will contain pieces of same style and same size only. These
pieces are stored in racks made beneath the cutting table. The cutting department
issues the amount required by the production dept. as and when ask for. The cut
component may be issued in instalment or all at once as the needs of the
production dept. against the job order.
SEWING DEPARTMENT

The basic aim of an export house is to deliver value satisfaction of the customer at
the profit level.

Production is an act of producing i.e. quantity obtained by multiplying two

quantities to gather by making use available resources.

To deliver quality with the quantity the ratio between input resources or material &
output good and service is known as productivity are reciprocally related to each
other. Therefore an increase in production leads to fall in the cost per unit & rise in
profit.

The production department is spread in two floors, ground floor and first floor is
for jacket, blazer and basic garment. Both floors have common cutting dept. so all
the sizes of bundles are received from there only.

Production floor follows assembly line system. Following are steps to start a
production line.

 To study the production file.

 To study operation bulletin and set line accordingly.
 Manpower – operators, checkers, quality controller and helper.
  Load and feeding line.
 To arrange buffer or work – in – progress.
 Manufacturing.
 To make daily production and to achieve target accordingly.
 To understand bottlenecks stage of production.

Working steps of production department:

 Shrinkage production pattern is issued to production floor from CAD dept.

 Ready pattern are made as per the requirement of production room.
 Cutting received from cutting dept.
 Cross checking of cut panels with patterns.
 Bundling of cut panels is done.
 Operation wise feeding of cut angels into the line.
 Inline checkpoint
 Output of line
 Final checkpoints.
 Auditing of checked pieces.

Some important production points:

 Ratio between worker and machinery

 Bottleneck area to be considered
 In most of machine, guide is there
  They are using cartons to moving bundles
 They generate report for broken needle
 Complete assembly is divided in 6 parts, in end of every part there was a
record sheet, which show early target input, actual input, target output
and actual output, according to this can find out bottleneck area.

PRODUCTION CAN BE CARRIED OUT IN ONE WAY

1. ASSEMBLY LINE PRODUCTION SYSTEM:

In this production system a garment is being by no. of workers, therefore one
part is stitched by one worker and then passed on to other, due to which line
gets setup. In the end assembly of the parts is done, in modern industries
conveyor belts are used as a medium of transportation of garment part from
one worker to another. This system is very commonly used in industry as it
reduces the manufacturing cost increase the production.

WASHING DEPARTMENT

Garments pass through various handling processes, which may render them dirty
and stain, thereby reducing their aesthetic appeal. To restore this aesthetic value,
they are subjected to cleansing process like washing and dry cleaning. Garments
are sent for washing by the production department as per the buyer’s requirement.
Normally the fabrics are not asked to go for wash by the buyer. Whether the fabric
department may internally sent it a number of other reasons.
1. To control uneven shrinkage
2. To remove bowing
3. To lighten colour shade
4. To improve hand
5. To even out colour shade variations

6. To remove printing smell

7. To execute a dyeing program

WASHING FACILITIES:

ENZYME,

STONE WASHING,

OVERDYEING ETC…

FINISHING DEPARTMENT

After assembly, the garments now come for finishing – a key stage of garment
manufacturing process. Finishing is done to prepare the final garment according
to the quality standards of the buyer before packing it for shipment.

 WASHING, PERC – according to the buyer’s demand or as per the buyer

specifies recipes and the method to be employed. The pieces are count
and sent with the asg or PERC program.
 Thread trimming – pieces received from the washing department or from
the assembly line now come for thread trimming where trails of thread
are cut off from the seams, buttons etc. manually with the help of
trimming scissor.
 Spotting – during the assembly, the garment may acquire stain and other
objectionable marks which must be removed. This is done either in
washing department or they are locally ‘sported off’. Objectionable stains
like that of chalk are spotted by means of spotting guns containing mild
solvent. Harder and stubborn stain(like that of tobacco, rust, dye,
kerosene etc) are sent to the spotting room where they are cleansed
under the spotting machine in a protective environment. If the spots still
don’t go then they are sent for perc or dry cleaning.
 General checking – now the garment comes for general checking relating to
overall stitching. Here, first the general visual appearance is studied which
includes shape of the garments; balancing of the parts; color variations etc.
then any seaming defects are recognized for example unmade seams,
missed stitches etc. as per requirement the checked pieces are send for
mending to assemble line. The production manager gives a top sample to
 checkers as a visual aid.
 Final thread cutting – minute thread like those of labels, bar tack etc. are
trimmed off to give the neat look. Thread loosely sticking to the garments is
also shed off, both in and out by jerking the garment before it goes for
pressing.
 Pressing – pressing in general is shaping the assemble material with
pressure, with/ without heat and moisture, for further processing. In case
of knits, this is important but not as significant as in the case of woven
because of their property of excellent recovery and fit.
Measurement and final checking – this is the final and most stringent done for
garment measurement, appearance, labels, trim etc to study the final look and
shape the final look and shape of the product produced. Measurements are done
according to the specification sheets and recording are made for any variations in
the measurement chart. This gives an overall idea about the quality of the garment
being produced.

PACKAGING DEPARTMENT

Packing is the LAST STAGE WHERE THE FINISHED GARMENT ARE

PRIMED, Organized, geared up for the shipment to the buyer, the entire process
from the way a garment will be folded to the final labeling of the cartons is
dictated by buyer’s specifications. These instructions are standardized for a
particular type of garment and sent to the merchandiser in from of a packing
manual. The merchandiser forwards it to the packing in charge along with a top of
production sample i.e. packed with dimension approved by the buyer. This is kept
as a visual reference for the packers.
