PROJECT BRIEF
This project is all about evaluating Greige fabric and eliminating the wastage problem based
on shrinkage analysis. This project would even encompass streamlining the process flow
activities carried out in the fabric store department so that the inefficient time can be reduced.
PROJECT LOCALE
Most of the factories in India still are not aware of how much shrinkage (%) occurs in which
fabric. These are only known to fabric mills where these fabric is been sent for processing. Due
to this sometimes the fabric mills take advantage and demand a large sum of money for
processing of fabric. This creates loss for the organisation in terms of money as well as fabric
wastage.

Fabric Wastage
Shrinkage Variation (Given Vs. Received)
Absence of tracking the flow of Greige & Processed fabric
FABRIC WASTAGE
After evaluating the Processed fabric, it was observed that no internal records were kept to
track the actual shrinkage of processed fabric. Modelama Exports rely on their fabric mill
suppliers report for shrinkage due to which absence of internal records created enormous
amount of fabric wastes.
Work on the existing norms for the process shrinkage given to the supplier according to the fabric type, along
with the 100cm marking
Comparing the greige fabric and processed fabric reports, which concluded that the process shrinkage we give
is more than the actual shrinkage we received
Plus the fabric we received is exact to the PO we have generated on the basis of our shrinkage norms , but the
actual fabric we should received is as per the actual shrinkage of the fabric
As per the supplier’s those fabrics has been consumed for the initial starting of the batch as the wastage fabric
but we also provide the extra wastage amount for that process
Prepare a new SOP’s for the greige as well as processed fabric inspection and for the testing. Also
development of new norms for the process shrinkage on the basis of the supplier as well as on the fabric type
Will also propose the technique of defect marking for certain meters and send for the processing to avoid
the statement of fabric defected wastages by the supplier
Greige fabric allocations as per the space and set targets & workflow of the greige fabric
Will achieve to save fabric as well as cost, plus will help to make process more systematic and transparent
which would help to identified the problem concerned areas

Before the initiation of this project, the records that were maintained was only the overall
number of Rolls sent to the fabric mills for processing along with their metres and was kept in
a record book known as “PACKING SLIP”.
After detailed examination, it was observed that the fabric store was unaware of how much
fabric was consumed by fabric mills in the name of shrinkage & wastage.
NEW-METHOD IMPLEMENTATION:
To overcome this problem, markings were done during the Greige fabric inspection stage so
that when the processed fabric will be received from the sent mills, proper inspection of
shrinkage & wastage can be calculated easily.
This new implemented method will make fabric store aware on how much shrinkage they are
actually receiving from the fabric mills and wastage can be calculated accordingly.
MARKINGS ON GREIGE FABRIC:
For shrinkage inspection:
Markings of 1 metre at every 10 metre at both sides on selvedge.
Total 5 articles were analysed and records were maintained in excel sheet of Greige fabric and
Processed fabric.

After several meetings amongst higher management, they came to a conclusion to provide
limited amount of fabric for processing to fabric mills. Implementation of this project in
MODELAMA EXPORTS mainly aims to reduce the fabric wastage as much as possible which
will ultimately reduce the large sum of money associated with it. It will streamline the process
by avoiding the loss for the organization.

PLANS CALCULATIONS
1. Time line is not fixed for receiving as well as issuing fabric to the cutting which at times
leads misbalancing of the inventory management.
2. Due to delay in meeting the PCD dates unable to conduct 100% inspection of the local
supplier fabrics.
3. There is not a uniform way of sending as well as receiving of greige fabric lots due to
which we cannot make any conclusion at the initial stage, have to wait for full fabric to
received mean while the fabrics are issued to the cutting.
4. No single point of access of good’s information and people have to go through multiple
places for the same info.
5. There is no record system of the testing as well as inspection report, it still works on
the old manual method which eventually last from 3 to 5 months.
6. There is lots of manual & registered work which needs to be replaced with the system.

1) Space Management:
Demarked area for freshly arrived fabric: As soon as the fabric is unloaded, all the
fabric rolls should be counted, against the invoice received from the supplier.
Proper Indexing of the stored fabric rolls: It may vary according to the fabric type,
order specifications etc. After the fabric is inspected, the indexing of the fabric should
be done and its exact location along with the order specifications should be noted. This
eases the process of locating the fabric in the fabric store.
2) Time Management: Easier to locate the rolls in the store without much difficulty and in
considerably less time. Segregation of fabric lots as per inspected, passed or rejected.
3) Capacity Escalation: The factory should better analyse their current capacity and their
ability to increase their capacity. A clear visibility of the in-house stock the factory has.
4) Information Management: With the visibility of in-hand inventory, the fabric store can
easily coordinate with the other departments that consume fabric.
5) Efficient Fabric Inspection Process: Reduce the amount of time spent in finding the rolls
to be inspected, it also allows for easy prioritization of the rolls for inspection, on the basis of
order requirements.
6) Use of 7s:
SORT: Daily needed items, weekly needed items, and monthly needed items are
defined and kept separate.
SET IN ORDER: All items, section, and area (In exist) are clearly identified by a label
and everything is well organized.
SHINING: All items/place of workplace Floors, walls, stairs, ceilings, pipework
Racks, cabinets, shelves, Machines, equipment, tools, Stored items, materials, products
and lighting everything is kept clean.
STANDARDIZE: Visualization by Information displays, related SOPs, signs, colour
coding and other markings are established everywhere in the fabric store.
SUSTAIN: This is a way of life rather than just a routine.
SAFETY & SECURITY: Workplace is safe for all employees and staffs working in
the fabric store.
If cycle counting, conduct physical inventory and update stock keeping records.
Check the store roof for leaks, especially during the rainy season and during or after a storm.
Ensure that products are stacked correctly (the lower cartons shouldn’t be crushed).
Inspect the storage structure for damage, including the walls, floors, roof, windows, and doors.
Store products using correct procedures; rearrange commodities to facilitate the first-to-expire, first-
out (FEFO) policy.
Visually inspect fire extinguishers to ensure that pressures are maintained and extinguishers are
ready for use.
The fabric store is often an ignored part in garment factories when it comes to improvement
projects and efforts. But small store organization and space utilization projects can bring in a
lot of difference in the factory’s bottom line.
Knowing the location, status, value, and lead-times of inventory is essential to making the most
effective business decisions. The up gradation of fabric store will reduce the chance of error as
it will eliminate the paper-based system. Keeping this in mind the benefits of organized fabric
store will not only make industry profitable but also increase market share.
At last the more efficient & organised a fabric store is, the better will be the store management.
TM
Enormous amount of leftover fabric is generated every month in Modelama Exports and is
dumped in the Plot No-5/7/18/89, IMT Manesar, Sector-4,5,8, Gurgaon units. The initial idea
begin with this concept to utilise the left-over fabric and start a new retail brand keeping
sustainability in mind.
METHODOLOGY ADOPTED
This project is the mixture of theoretical as well as practical knowledge. Also it contains ideas
and information imparted by the guide. The secondary data required for the project was
collected from various websites and books of reputed authors.
The project started with sorting all the raw data and arranging them in perfect order. To add
value to the project and to understand the practicality of retailing business, we have visited
various stores who are the best ones in retailing business.
Further, to understand the consumers better, a field survey was also conducted to find out the
tastes and preferences, purchasing habits, expectations of the consumers etc. Analysis of this
primary data has been done to actually understand the survey in a better way.

LITERATURE REVIEW
Retailing consists of all activities involved in selling goods and services to consumers for their
personal, family or household use. The retail sector in India is highly fragmented with
organized retail contributing to only 2% of total retail sales.
Today, in India we see a rise in the purchasing power and growth of a middle class which
follows the western lifestyle. Hence, conditions are conducive for the rapid growth of organized
retail in India.
Organized retail is growing rapidly and we see the emergence of large organized retail chains
like Shoppers’ Stop, Life Style and Westside. We also find retail malls mushrooming all over
the country. The opportunities in retail industry in India will increase since Indian retailing is
on the threshold of a major change. However, with the rapid growth in organized retail and
increased emphasis of manufacturers on understanding sales at the retail level, the study of
retailing has become increasingly relevant.

A practical field survey was done to get a deeper knowledge of how our competitors cater the
target customers.
Our objective was:
Ascertain the competitor’s positioning and value proposition in the market and in
consumer perception
Understand the assortment breadth/depth in terms of the major items, styles, colours,
sizes and brands stocked
Determining the Price points of different Categories
Determining the Promotion Mix used by the Competitors
To find out the human resource allocation plan with a view to understand remuneration
and incentives
Limitations / Constraints while doing this field survey for our project:
The issues considered confidential by the store authorities were not revealed because
of which we could not gain access to several data and information which we considered
vital for the betterment of the project.
The Project does not delve into financial aspects of retailing such as ROI, Inventory
turns, Return per Square feet. It focuses clearly on marketing and merchandising
elements only.
METHODOLOGY ADOPTED
We are not only utilising the fabric but our main focus is to satisfy customer with our unique
approach that we will offer to them.
The garment will be presented with different styles which our customer can club and will be
guided accordingly. We have done a customer survey (internal) to get a proper knowledge of
Indian skin tone and the body shape. With the help of this survey the garments that we make
will be suitable for the Indian market.
One room has been allotted to begin with the production process.
