Unit Wise Production Quantity Report

Reason of SMV Variation

Production UnitItem/OptionReason of SMV Variation
Unit-01Round Neck T-Shirt1. SMV reduces because of Label make process elimination, i/o compound label added
Unit-01V Neck T-Shirt1. SMV reduces because of Label make process elimination, i/o compound label added
Unit-01Short Pant1. SMV increases because of Label make process added, I/o compound label
2. Achieve SMV more than Marketing SMV because of unskilled Kansai machine operator & rented Kansai m/c.
Unit-02Round Neck T-Shirt (Solid)1. SMV increases because of using excess manual operations ( Exp: Front & back part match, sleeve & body match, after sleeve join, side seam & before sleeve, bottom hem  garments arrangement)
Unit-01V Neck T-Shirt (Stripe)1. SMV increases because of using excess manual operations ( Exp: Front & back part match, sleeve & body match, after sleeve join, side seam & before sleeve, bottom hem  garments arrangement. Neck rib cut in sewing line i/o cutting section.)
Unit-02V Neck T-Shirt (Stripe)1. SMV increases because of using excess manual operations ( Exp: Front & back part match, sleeve & body match, after sleeve join, side seam & before sleeve, bottom hem  garments arrangement. Neck rib cut in sewing line i/o cutting section.)
Unit-01Short Pant (Solid)1. SMV increases because of Label make process added, I/s compound label
2. Achieve SMV more than Marketing SMV because of unskilled Kansai machine operator & rented Kansai m/c.
Unit-01Short Pant (Stripe)1. SMV increases because of Label make process added, I/s compound label
2. Achieve SMV more than Marketing SMV because of unskilled Kansai machine operator & rented Kansai m/c.

Reason of Efficiency Variation

Sl No.StyleProduction UnitItem/OptionReason of Efficiency Variation
1KYLIE  SL-SETUnit-01Round Neck T-Shirt1. Production Manpower used more than Layout target Manpower
2. Frequent line layout change
Unit-01V Neck T-Shirt1. Production Manpower used more than Layout target Manpower
2. Frequent line layout change
Unit-01Short Pant1. Production Manpower used more than Layout target Manpower
2. Frequent line layout change
3. Rented low-quality m/c
4. Unskilled Kansai machine Operator

2. Frequent line layout change
3. Rented low-quality m/c
4. Unskilled Kansai machine Operator

Feedback:

  1. Manual operations need to be reduced.
  2. Before the changeover, required m/c with quality must be ensured.
  3. Need to train operator & improve skill.
  4. Unit-01 needs to improve more by reducing helping operations (Exp: KYLIE N-SLIP V neck T-shirt Stripe).Unit-01 achieved efficiency 36% & Unit-02 achieved efficiency 51%
  5. Style-wise big volume sewing quantity but short time running in several lines, that`s why line average efficiency reduces. During line planning, this factor should be considered.
