Abstract:
In Garments Industry, Tracking the fabric cutting Process is a key requirement
in any manufacturing discipline. When the production process is more human
oriented, tracking process becomes more difficult compare to an automated process.
Due to the inefficient and decentralized nature of requirements sharing and
communication methods used for calculating fabric cutting ratio and planning
process of the garment manufacturing industries, a number of issues such as long
lead times, high fabric wastage due to incorrect ratio planning, etc have negatively
affected high cost and employee relations in the industry.
The project provides SAP R/3 based solution to solving these issues by
proposing both a business as well as an IT solution. The deductive approach which
to research is used to carry out a comprehensive research that works to identified
the factors influence incorrect ratio planning to increase efficiency, reliability &
accuracy through the centralized system. These factors are then taken as variables
to formulate hypotheses of the study. A comprehensive industrial survey was
carried out to gather further details on the subject matter thus the results ofit were
considered whilst proving or disapproving the hypotheses. The most influential
factors identified through the research were then used to design the business
solution. Furthermore, various issues, perspectives and theories that were identified
through the research were used to model, design and eventually develop the IT
solution.
These solutions is provided an all-round solution; both strategically and
systematically were highly rated by the evaluators ofthe project.
