SOURCING DEALS with getting information about material form different
sources then selecting the best material which suits over budget and
buyer‟s specification.
Fabric sourcing means souring the right kind of fabric which fulfills the
specification. Fabric sourcing department is quite important as more than
90% of garment is fabric and approximately 70% cost of garment is due to
the fabric cost.
Selecting the right quality of the fabric as per the buyer‟s specification
otherwise it may lead to cancellation or rejection of the whole order given
by the buyer. The fabric sourcing department gets the fabric sample from
the vendor. These samples are tested before sending to buyer for approval.
After the buyer approves the sample, the fabric is order for bulk production.

27 | P a g e
SAMPLING DEPARTMENT:
Sampling is the product development stages. A sample is a proto type of a product to
be manufactured in future course of production. It is also called mock up of a product
and is made to check the design effectiveness and fit of the garment. Sampling is a set
of the procedure follow to produce various sample style. It contains activities like making

PATTERN MAKING DEPARTMENT:
Pattern making is the process of creating a blueprint of your garment. A pattern is used
as a template to cut out fabric that matches the required specifications to sew a
garment. It factors in the type of fabric, the intended fit on the wearer, and any trims that
will be used. The pattern is used to make 2D fabric sit properly on a 3D body.
CUTTING DEPARTMENT:
Cutting department receives the order for cutting a garments style from the production
manager. It comes in form of a package file that carries the following details.
Sampling average
Measurement sheet
Design worksheet of the garment
Purchase order
CAD Mini Marker
Marker Planning
Cutting means to separate out different garment process from the lay of fabric with
the help of cutting template and devices. It is done to get required shape in
30 | P a g e
different no. or as a whole to make a complete product. The first stage in the
manufacture if garment is the cutting of material into the necessary pattern shapes.
These patterns are joined to form a garment when large amount of garment style
has to be cut, a lay is created, which consist of many piles of fabric spread one
above the other. Now all the pattern pieces for all sizes are from this lay. The main
objective of the cutting dept. is the cutting of garment parts accurately and
economically and in sufficient value to keep the sewing room supplied with work.
Objective:
31 | P a g e
TICKETING:
Once the pattern pieces are cut by the cutting machine, they are then ticketed. Cut
components are group together as per their sizes and taken to the checking table.
Here the cut components are inspected for any error. It is very important to take
care that pieces cut from two different bolts of fabric are not mixed up. This is
because within lot there bolt to bolt variation in color shade.
FUSING:
Fusing is also carried out in the cutting room itself. The parts to be fused are
separated from the bundle. The fusing material (like interlining) is cut according to
size of the component to be fused. The component along with the cut fusing
material are kept between to paper sheets and the pack is passed through the fusing
machine by means of temperature and pressure fusing takes place at particular
speed and for a particular time. The pack comes out at the other end on conveyors
and the pieces are removed and re-bundled.
CHECKING:
The ticked panels are now sending to the checking are for inspection of every
individual pieces for any objectionable faults. Panels having faults like wrong
grain line, in appropriate size, incorrect shape and any fabric defects likes holes,
cut , shade, variation etc. That are not within the acceptable quality parameters, are
removed from the cut lay. A cutting component checking report is filled for the
total quantity cut, checked and approvals. The rejected pieces are sent back and
equal no of trash panel are separately cut, replaced in the set and ticketed with the
same no. as the rejected once. Other mend able faults are marked with an alteration
sticker and passed on. These will be spotted out during garment finishing or
washing.
BUNDLING:
The checked components of one style and in one size are now clubbed and bundled
using tie. The size of bundle depends upon the requirements of the production
plant. Each bundle will contain pieces of same style and same size only. These
pieces are stored in racks made beneath the cutting table. The cutting department
32 | P a g e
issues the amount required by the production dept. as and when ask for. The cut
component may be issued in installment or all at once as the needs of the
production dept. against the job order.
SEWING DEPARTMENT:
The basic aim of an export house is to deliver value satisfaction of the customer at
the profit level.
Production is an act of producing i.e. quantity obtained by multiplying two
quantities to gather by making use available resources.
To deliver quality with the quantity the ratio between input resources or material &
output good and service is known as productivity are reciprocally related to each
other. Therefore an increase in production leads to fall in the cost per unit & rise in
profit.
The production department is spread in two floors, ground floor and first floor is
for jacket, blazer and basic garment. Both floors have common cutting dept. so all
the sizes of bundles are received from there only.
Production floor follows assembly line system. Following are steps to start a
production line.
To study the production file.
To study operation bulletin and set line accordingly.
Manpower – operators, checkers, quality controller and helper.
Load and feeding line.
To arrange buffer or work – in – progress.
Manufacturing.
To make daily production and to achieve target accordingly.
To understand bottlenecks stage of production.
33 | P a g e
Some important production points:
Ratio between worker and machinery
Bottleneck area to be considered
In most of machine, guide is there
They are using cartons to moving bundles
They generate report for broken needle
Complete assembly is divided in 6 parts, in end of every part there was a
record sheet, which show early target input, actual input, target output and
actual output, according to this can find out bottleneck area.
PRODUCTION PROCESS:
ASSEMBLY LINE PRODUCTION SYSTEM:
In this production system a garment is being by no. of workers, therefore one part
is stitched by one worker and then passed on to other, due to which line gets setup.
In the end assembly of the parts is done, in modern industries conveyor belts are
used as a medium of transportation of garment part from one worker to another.
This system is very commonly used in industry as it reduces the manufacturing
cost increase the production.
WASHING DEPARTMENT:
Garments pass through various handling processes, which may render them dirty and
stain, thereby reducing their aesthetic appeal. To restore this aesthetic value, they are
subjected to cleansing process like washing and dry cleaning. Garments are sent for
washing by the production department as per the buyer‟s requirement. Normally the
fabrics are not asked to go for wash by the buyer. Whether the fabric department may
internally sent it a number of other reasons.
Following activities are done in washing:
1. To control uneven shrinkage
2. To remove bowing
3. To lighten colour shade
4. To improve hand
5. To even out colour shade variations
6. To remove printing smell
7. To execute a dyeing program
WASHING FACILITIES:
ENZYME,
STONE WASHING,
OVERDYEING ETC…
34 | P a g e
FINISHING DEPARTMENT:
After assembly, the garments now come for finishing – a key stage of garment
manufacturing process. Finishing is done to prepare the final garment according to the
quality standards of the buyer before packing it for shipment.
WASHING, PERC – according to the buyer‟s demand or as per the buyer specifies
recipes and the method to be employed. The pieces are count and sent with the asg or
PERC program.
Thread trimming – pieces received from the washing department or from the assembly
line now come for thread trimming where trails of thread are cut off from the seams,
buttons etc. manually with the help of trimming scissor.
Spotting- during the assembly, the garment may acquire stain and other objectionable
marks which must be removed. This is done either in washing department or they are
locally „sported off‟. Objectionable stains like that of chalk are spotted by means of
spotting guns containing mild solvent. Harder and stubborn stain(like that of tobacco,
rust, dye, kerosene etc) are sent to the spotting room where they are cleansed under the
spotting machine in a protective environment. If the spots still don‟t go then they are sent
for perc or dry cleaning.
General checking- now the garment comes for general checking relating to overall
stitching. Here, first the general visual appearance is studied which includes shape of the
garments; balancing of the parts; color variations etc. then any seaming defects are
recognized for example unmade seams, missed stitches etc. as per requirement the
35 | P a g e
checked pieces are send for mending to assemble line. The production manager gives a
top sample to checkers as a visual aid.
Final thread cutting- minute thread like those of labels, bar tack etc. are trimmed off
to give the neat look. Thread loosely sticking to the garments is also shed off, both in and
out by jerking the garment before it goes for pressing.
Pressing- pressing in general is shaping the assemble material with pressure, with/
without heat and moisture, for further processing. In case of knits, this is important but
not as significant as in the case of woven because of their property of excellent recovery
and fit.
PACKAGING DEPARTMENT:
Packing is the last stage where the finished garment are primed, organized, geared up
for the shipment to the buyer, the entire process from the way a garment will be folded
to the final labeling of the cartons is dictated by buyer‟s specifications. These
instructions are standardized for a particular type of garment and sent to the
merchandiser in from of a packing manual. The merchandiser forwards it to the packing
in charge along with a top of production sample i.e. packed with dimension approved by
the buyer. This is kept as a visual reference for the packers.
PROCESS FLOW OF PACKING
PURCHASING DEPARTMENT:
Purchasing department is similar to the sourcing department but the main difference is
that the sourcing department works for sourcing fabric alone while the purchasing
36 | P a g e
department works for sourcing the accessories and trim.
37 | P a g e
DESIGN PROJECTS:
Button, zipper, lining, snap botton, embroidery,hasps and slider( adjuster) beads,
rhinestone, sequins, waist ties, bows, tassel, labels, hook and loop , hook and eye
, elastic, lace fabric, mirror.

Suggestions
I would suggest the company to have a presence worldwide, as the markets are
getting bigger and getting international. Also, the experience for me during this
internship was really great and it provided me new learning about the real
production. I gained a lot of experience from the team of SG Fashion. In the future
I will be glad to know if there is job position for me in the company so I can put
my skills and knowledge to the best use.
The experience I had was really amazing, this will help me in the future to learn
new skills and get myself trained for my future career. This experience helps to
secure a good job in the future, also to guide myself to a better future. I wish SG
Fashion a lot of success in future and hope I can have some engagement (as a job/
6 month internship) with the company again.
I want to provide suggestion to SG Fashion that they can include more students
participation in the future. This will help reduce the work on their employees and
also provide fruitful learning to students. They can also provide 6 months training
to students with a fixed learning curriculum and provide students with a basic
remuneration for their living expenses.
48 | P a g e
CONCLUSION:
However, I think there are some aspects of the job that I could have done better if
provided with more time. I assure I will improve upon by working on the skills. On
the whole, this internship was a useful experience. I have gained new knowledge,
skills and met many new people. I achieved several of my learning goals. The
internship was also good to find out what my strengths and weaknesses are. This
helped me to define what skills and knowledge I have to improve in the coming
time.
At last this internship has given me new insights and motivation to pursue a
career in the field of fashion technology and garment manufacturing. I would like
to once again appreciate everyone who has made my internship a superb
experience.
