This department plays a vital role in the whole companys profile; it has a maximum sub division within it. This department needs more co-ordination and high level of communication and employees are directly related to this department. Factory management totally has 10 sections within it and headed by one person called factory manager.

The ten sections are as follows: Planning Section Fabric Section Cutting Section Input Section Accessories Section Production Section Trimming Section Ironing and Packaging Section Maintenance Section Quality Section

The total production process starts from the planning section. The order sheet from the customer /buyer directly goes to planning section. The planning section further processes the

work and analyses the way to do the work and perform certain important task like allocations, allotments and scheduling. According to those schedules the rest of the section should coordinate. Planning section led by the person called planning manager takes the order; analysis the time to produce per unit and make a pattern for the ordered garment with the help of chief pattern master and according to the planned quantity of the product with 5% of wastage he orders the fabric to knitting unit. The finished fabric will be directly sent to the fabric section from the knitting unit. Fabric section takes minimum of 1 day and maximum of 3 days for some necessary process of fabric such as checking the quality of the fabric as per the buyer needs, checking the dyeing process of the fabric with lab test and getting approval from the customer/buyer to ensure the satisfaction with the quality of the fabric. The schedule made by planning section will also contain the dead line of the process of fabric section. After taking approval from the buyer the fabric section further proceeds towards to the cutting section. The deadline of the cutting section will be mentioned in the main planning according to the cutting master-(head of the cutting department) makes a schedule for cutting according to the pattern and measurements sent from planning section and pattern master. Around 5% extra will be cut for the purpose of uncertainity avoidance towards wastage. After cutting all the bundles the fabric will be sent to input section, it adds some fabric related materials such as ribbed Kopf, collars, yoke and the necessary material which the buyer orders as extra fittings in their final product which totally depends upon the design of the product. Input section further sends the material to accessories section. Accessories section issues materials such as labels, zip, buttons and other necessary components according to the buyers needs and products design and only number of ordered quantity will be sent to the next section. Next comes the main part of the production, the production section which does the total stitching work of the product. This department is headed by two production in-charges who get the copy of production schedule and in every day meeting in the morning they set the current days target and try to achieve it. Based on the information provided by the company every day they set the target more than what they need and they achieve less than the target so that they achieve their actual target. As per the schedule lines of the production (such as A, B, C.O) particular job i.e. different orders from different companies are allotted. Each line has two superior persons called line supervisors who coordinate their own line towards achieving the scheduled target. In case of any problem or damage in the garment within the line during stitching will be handled by the line supervisors. If the problem is so critical the responsibility will be moved on to production in-charges; they further have a discussion with factory manager and planning section to resolve the problem. Coordinating all the line supervisors and lines is the basic job of production in-charges. During stitching if the level of damage made the order quantity compromise then again the issue goes to the planning section. Planning section will continue the same cycle for the remaining quantity with the 5% extra on that quantity to avoid risk. When the stitching process completed the process moved on to quality section. In each line of production there will be a person called line end checkers who belongs to quality section their job is to check whether the finished product is as per the buyers requirement if satisfied the product will move on to trimming section, If not the line end checkers will report to line supervisors who further alter the product up to a certain level if the product does not suit the buyer needs; then it will be stored as second hand goods.

After stitching the order moves to trimming section. According to the dead line the trimming section plans within them and allocate with in themselves to finish trimming before at least one day of dead line. Trimming section is headed by the person called trimming incharge. He manages the employees working under him and finishes trimming process before one day of trimming deadline and sends the product to ironing and packing section. This section is headed by person called ironing and packing in-charge. This section gets an order when job sheet arrives with the ironing pattern and packing style. Rate tags, brand tags and other requirements of packing are directly received by this section. This will also be having the schedule for dead line and packs. During the time of arrival of job sheet itself this section books the shipment allotments and get all the things done for the shipment process of ordered quantity. This section irons the ordered quantity according to the buyers requirement and also packs accordingly. And organize all the packages in accordance with the country to which the package will be sent. They allot a colour for each country and paste respective colour on the packages and organize accordingly. All these process are done at least before 26 days of shipment.

Elaborations of the section under factory management: Planning Section:

Planning section is the primary section for the process of production in this company. This section is headed by a person called planning manager. And planning manager has two sub ordinates under him. Their main job is to coordinate the whole company with the planning mangers plan. When it comes to job for every order a formal order sheet will be received by this section which is also called as job order sheet made by buyers that contains all the aspects of the order such as details of the buyer, number of quantities ordered, type of fabric to be used, style of the output, orders according to the measurement, fittings style, stitching style, printings and embroidery, measurement of printing and embroidery, printing quality, country to which the shipment ordered placed, number of cartons, weight of the fabric (GSM), type of label, number of tags and their types, knitting and dyeing details, washing details, dyeing rate, shade card, sequence of process, order of two sample pieces, shipment date and mode of shipment. By overseeing all these aspects from the job order sheet planning section plans accordingly. According to the order of quantity buyer gives the time around 3 months, 6 months or 9 months. Order will be taken only by considering the minimum time as 3 months. With the available details from the job ordered sheet the planning section starts its process of planning by setting the target to finish the process till packaging at least before 26-30 days of time. Planning section has a direct link with each and every section of the company. At first planning section gets together with patterning and sample section and produces two pieces of sample product those two samples inspected by the buyers and the planning section gets the approval to assure the customer satisfaction. If the planning section gets the approval starts the process of allocation, allotments and scheduling. In the beginning it sets the dead line for all the section involved in producing the product. Accordingly it places an order to the knitting and dyeing unit. From the day of arrival of the knitted fabric the process will move on to the

other departments of the company. Planning section already aware of the arrival date of knitted fabric. So accordingly it sets dead line to the upcoming section like fabric, cutting, input, production etc.

Duties of planning section in coordinating with other sections:

To fabric section - It sets the dead line for the total process of fabric section; Providing all details about weight of the fabric; Information about the minimum required quality demanded by the buyer for the comparison of laboratory results. To cutting section Setting dead line for cutting out the bulk fabric; allocating different job(different orders from different buyers) on each day according to the shipment date of the order; sending the measurement chart and patterns which the planning section made during sample process. To input section setting dead line to proceed further; sending the details of the job; sending the overall design of the piece; sending the details about all necessary fittings in the product. To accessories section proving all details regarding finished product; providing necessary voucher details passed on from various sections of the company; particulars of necessary materials such as zip, buttons, labels etc; and particulars of the respective suppliers for those materials. To production section Allocation of the jobs to rows of production unit; providing those necessary stitching details and material voucher; conducting everyday meeting to set up current days target. To trimming section setting time for the completion of trimming.

To maintenance section providing details regarding idle time on particular machine; and allotment of time for the regular maintenance of the machinery.

Totally in this organization the planning department is playing a 360 degree role. Proper and feasible planning done by the planning manager and it has been implemented by the two subordinates under planning manger. All the above mentioned work has been done by those two people. So directly or indirectly those two people control the whole organization and coordinate both the top level planning with the lower level implementation.

Fabric section:

The initial work of the fabric section is to receive the knitted fabric from the knitting unit. Then a couple of process take place; they are, checking the weight of the total fabric bundles and comparing the weight with the minimum GSM required by the buyers which is mentioned in the job order sheet then checking the quality and type of the fabric and also getting approval from the buyer to assure their satisfaction for their strong assurance to start bulk production. The dyeing process is checked with the help of laboratory test. Along with the result this section will get another approval for further process. If the result of the lab test fails at first this section informs the planning section about the issue and level of corrections. At that time no debit will be put on this department or unit. The debit will be directly put on to the merchandise from whom the fabric got supplied. All these process has to take place within three days. There is a structure within the fabric section which is classified according to their work. They are:

Time management is the essential factor between fabric and planning section. This section has some other important duties like collecting all the wasted and damaged fabric. Most importantly according to the above chart those 2 fabric quality in-charges in the third position are not available in this unit. They will be taking care of the quality of fabric during the knitting itself. For each order the original quality will be shown to these fabric in-charges; they are involved in the process of quality maintenance according to buyer needs.

Cutting section:
This section plays an essential role as this company is a garment company this stage of operation cannot be eliminated. According to the allocation done by the planning section, this section will add on its own effectiveness to get effective output. All the bundles tested, sanctioned and processed by the fabric section will be received here and cutting process starts. When the cutting process is finished it will be sent to the input section.

Input section:
This section acts as an intermediate between cutting and stitching section. Though the fabric is available stitching needs some extra fabric for the extra fittings in the final product. So the job of input section is to cut the extra fabrics according to the fitting styles and along with main fabrics these extra fabrics will also be bundled and sent along with it.

Accessories section:
This section is headed by an in charge who records each and every transaction happening in this section. This section is in charge for all the required accessories to stitch and the special accessories needed according to the buyer needs. Some of them are buttons, zips, labels etc. All these are added on and sent to the stitching sub stores along with fabric bundle. But this section will deliver only limited resources and that too only with the replacement of a voucher issued by the concerned authority most probably that authority will be factory manager.

Production section:
Production section is where the main work of the operational level takes place. The production has totally 15 rows for stitching named by A to O and totally 2 production incharges lead this section who take care of all 15 rows. Each row has a supervisor, per 2 rows there is 1 quality in charge. In the next page there is a production schedule which is made for each month that will be divided into week and it will be further divided into days. Everyday there will be production meeting held in morning before production starts that involves production in-charges, planning and factory manager. By taking that schedule as base for every days production the current days allocation is done.

Ironing and packing section:

This is the last stage of production section. All the stitched pieces will be ironed and packed here. But the work of this section starts from the day when the company receives its job order sheet. It reserves in the shipment process on the required date. All the production and packing process will be finished at least before a month. All packages will be safely stored and taken care of this section. From the day of arrival into this section till the date of shipment the products lie under the responsibility of this section.

Conclusion:
I conclude the company did not have any issues regarding operation or management level but there were problem regarding quality and uncertainty which every firm usually has. And may be this is our first experience of getting too deep towards the management level of a company. Being to new the intern did not find anything as wrong, unusual or problematic. But all the entire stay with the company had given new experience to the intern.
