26. BILL OF MATERIALS

27. BILL OF MATERIALS

28. SAMPLING The samples decide the ability of an exporter. The buyer will hire the exporter and his organisation only by the samples. The exporter can estimate the yarn consumption for developing the fabric, a clear idea on costing more ever the manufacturing difficulties. The exporter can optimize the processing parameters for mass production, which helps to avoid all kind of bottlenecks.

29. SAMPLING PROCEDURE

30. TYPES OF SAMPLES PRE- PRODUCTION SAMPLES

31. SAMPLING Levi’s sends the tech pack and PAF (Proto approval form) to its own buying house. PROTO SAMPLE The buying house gets 2 proto samples constructed each for: Design team of Levi’s Technical team of Levi’s Similar fabric and trims are used or may be made with poplin or muslin. The proto samples are then sent to the buyer who will actually examine if the product will be appreciated in the market. If the proto sample is approved, the buying house gets the fit sample developed with the measurement and grading details. FIT SAMPLE The fit sample is first examined by the buying house and they leave their comments in the product approval form. The fit sample is then sent to the buyer for the approval who also leave their comments on the same. Actual fabric and trims are used. Done in medium size. To correct all fit related problems Any delay in fit sample will cause delay in P.O.

32. SAMPLING SALESMAN SAMPLE Submitted parallel with fit sample Exactly the same fabric and trims are used. Done with sample yardage Made in medium size used for advertising and visual merchandising SIZE SET SAMPLE Made in all sizes Actual fabric from bulk is used Minimum of 2 size set sample is made Done after P.O. is received GPT(GARMENT PERFORMANCE TEST) SAMPLE Sample is sent to either third –party or in-house testing lab Test results should get approved well in advance from buyer Done before pre-production sample PILOT RUN SAMPLE Done to see the complications in actual production To give the sufficient time for operator’s learning Pilot run can be conducted before or after PP Meeting.

33. SAMPLING SEALER SAMPLE It is used as a reference for supervisors and trainers It is done in medium size Done from bulk yardage Every line has one sealer sample Used for production detailing Once approved ,the style size,colour , nothing can be changed. Top Of Production Sample From first few pieces of sample TOP sample is submitted to buyer. It’s very crucial stage  If   TOP sample get rejected then production end date is going to be delayed .  Hence   it can straight way affect the shipment date SHIPMENT SAMPLE It is sent with full packaging Randomly one sample is picked and sent

34. TIME AND ACTION CALENDAR  It is a popular tool used in apparel manufacturing industry It is a technique for tracking and following up of important milestones The chart consists of time frames listed for every action planned PURPOSE OF TIME AND ACTION CALENDAR(TNA) To cross check at frequent intervals whether the planning is being executed satisfactorily. TNA is especially useful when a buyer wants to know the status of execution of an order. STRUCTURE OF TNA In order to make TNA below mentioned information must be available Process flow of an order Production capacity of cutting, sewing, washing and finishing For sewing - batch wise and product wise capacity (production per day per batch) Lead time of activities, e.g. raw material lead time, sampling lead time, etc. Shipment date or planned ex-factory date

35. TIME AND ACTION CALENDAR No. Key Activities Time Taken 1. PROTO SAMPLE SUBMISSION N/A 2. PROTO SAMPLE APPROVAL 18 DAYS 3. ORDER CONFIRMATION 1 DAY 4. FIT SAMPLES SENT TO BUYER 30-32 DAYS 5. APPROVAL OF FIT SAMPLE 25 DAYS 6. SALESMAN SAMPLE SENT TO BUYER SENT PARALLEL TO FIT SAMPLES 7. APPROVAL OF SALESMAN SAMPLE 25 DAYS 8. P.O. RAISED BY BUYER 1-2 DAYS

37. IMPORTANCE OF TNA   Helps to streamline the pre-production activities. Easy understanding of order processing. Clear understanding of timelines given by buyer. Clear idea about the minor or sub activities Gives idea about the status of running order and delay Gives the dates at which raw material need to be sourced, Also reduces the risk of delivery delay.

38. LAB DIP Lab dip is small swatch of fabric to define color and its recipe before it goes for bulk dyeing. This is also a master piece for both buyer & manufacturer that give correct source what to be color look like and what is the corresponding dyestuff recipe would be. Lab dip is important because different combination of dyes or different color recipe produces different shades. The dye houses matches their lab dip with buyers’ reference colour . Process Sequence of Lab Dip:  Lab dip requisition from buyer Entry in the computer First recipe is given by swatch/ pantone number first correction second correction Grading of sample (A,B,C,D) Yarn knit sample send to buyer approved by buyer Order for bulk production Production card with approved sample

39. BENEFITS Manufacturing a sewn product is similar to putting a puzzle together; you are presented with different shapes, sizes, and color and it has to put together and finished just like the reference sample provided. A tech pack helps to stay organized and focused. It helps with patternmaking, grading, calculating yields and costing. A tech pack also confirms that all necessary information is provided to the factory and will insure the accuracy of the final product.
