Abstract:
Sewing section is the heart of a readymade garment industry. The productivity of the sewing section is directly effect on their annual income & the chances to get the orders. This project is about “Productivity analysis of sewing line of readymade garment industry by applying IE studies. In garment industry several types of dept. like as Production Team, IE Team, HR Admin Team, Technical Team, Mechanic Team & Maintenance Team. works in sewing line at a time. Every dept. is concern about the productivity label of sewing section. But only the IE team works for increasing the productivity of a sewing section by implementing new process, techniques & methods. In this project we have showed the increasing label of productivity of a specific sewing line of sewing section. We have applied some IE studies like Time study, Production study, finding bottle neck process, motion study etc. & made a good productivity label. The efficiency increased day by day. We observed 7 days of production. From Day-1 to Day-2, production was very low & the average cycle time & capacity of bottleneck process was very low. By applying motion study, from Day-3 the capacity of bottleneck process has been increased. From Day-4 the bottleneck process has been replaced to another one. We have tried to increase the capacity of that process. But it was not possible to hit the targeted efficiency with only 1 manpower on that process. So, we added one extra manpower on that process. Then we got the improvement. Our targeted efficiency was 65%. Though we didn’t hit the target efficiency but we balanced the line in 63%.
