A basic garment manufacturing flow chart is presented in the below: Design ↓ Pattern Making ↓ Fit Sample Making ↓ Production Pattern Making ↓ Grading ↓ Marker Making ↓ Fabric Spreading ↓ Fabric Cutting ↓ Cutting Parts Sorting or Bundling ↓ Sewing ↓ Garments Inspection ↓ Garments Ironing and Finishing ↓ Final Inspection ↓ Garments Packing ↓ Cartooning ↓ Shipment   Each process of garments manufacturing flow chart is discussed in the below with the details: 1. Design: Design is provided by the buyer. After placing an order buyer send the technical sheet and art-work of an order to the merchandiser. This process is done by both manually or by using computer. 2. Pattern Making: By following technical sheet and art-work, pattern of each garment style should be made.

The plan–do–check–act cycle (Figure 1) is a four–step model for carrying out change. Just as a circle has no end, the PDCA cycle should be repeated again and again for continuous improvement. When to Use Plan–Do–Check–Act ·          As a model for continuous improvement. ·          When starting a new improvement project. ·          When developing a new or improved design of a process, product or service. ·          When defining a repetitive work process. ·          When planning data collection and analysis in order to verify and prioritize problems or root causes. ·          When implementing any change. Plan–Do–Check–Act Procedure 1.     Plan. Recognize an opportunity and plan a change. 2.  ...

Inline Inspection means checking quality of the product in the process instead of checking at the end of the process when product is completely made. It means checking of semi-stitched garments or partially stitched garments while pieces are still inside the line and all sewing operations are not yet stitched or some make as say early stage of production.   1) Inline at check points: Quality checker checks semi-stitched garment at fixed workstation inside the sewing line at critical operations only. This checking station is known as checkpoint. At this checkpoint quality checker checks all operations done up to that point. 100% garments are checked at this check points. A line may have multiple checkpoints depending on product type. 2) Roaming quality or line quality: A quality checker may be appointed to check garments at all workstations in a sewing line randomly. This inline checker goes to every workstation and randomly picks bundles and checks few pieces (7...
