Introduction to SAM

Over view for understanding Style bulletin.

1. SAM  is used to measure the task or work content of a garment.  is the time required for a qualified worker working at “ Standard  Performance” to perform a given task. The  SAM  includes additional allowances for Rest and Relaxation, Machine Delay.

2. SAM stands for Standard Allowed minutes and SMV stands for single minutes value there is the only difference in name although the calculation and usage of both terminologies are same. Americans Textile association and the industries worked with them use the term SAM. European Textile association and the industries worked with them use the term SMV.

3. SAM is the core Value of Apparel and textile industries. SAM is used for Capacity planning. CPM calculation. Efficiency Calculation. O n the basis of SAM plan vs. achieved is analyzed. SAM is used to Grade current employees Skill level. SAM is used for estimation of Profit and loss. Line Balancing, Lead time calculation. Wages Calculation for contractual Employees.

4. First need to Select one operation for which you want to calculate SAM . Need to study the motions & movements of operators to determine standard method of sitting, pick and dispose position. Single cycle based on completing one process from pick to next pick. Note down at least 10 cycles of any process from pick to next pick. SAM = BM x (1+PFA+MDA)+BHT BM = ASCT(mint) x Rating R ating is based on evaluator’s experience to keep in mind the process is being studied how much time it can taken. After calculating all the process Aggregate total is called SAM of garments it is different as segment wise cutting, Embellishment,sewing,Finishing and Packing.

5. Use Of SAM. Capacity Calculation Target Calculation Piece Rate Calculations (Costing) Efficiency Calculation Performance Layout designing Line Balancing Lead Time Takt Time OEE Skill Level TPM Cost Per Min Cost Per Piece Machine Utilization SMED Analysis Through put time

6. A Described & Planned Document with usage of SAM to explain the real time Arrangement for Smooth Flow of Any Department, Style bulletin useful in Stitching, Clipping, Finishing & Packing Process Style bulletin helpful in Pre Arrangement of in the context of Production & Quality Requirement Style Bulletin is controlled document shared with quality, Customer and PPR Meetings. Style bulletin showing capacity at each process & Line Calculation of efficiency, Performance, & Target is possible with Elements of Style bulletin
