NAUMD 2021 WEBINAR SERIES
Presented Thursday, April 15, 2021
The inherently manual aspects of sewn goods manufacturing make profitable operations a challenge for uniform producers, whether a brand operates its own plants or contracts with third-party manufacturers.
Most plants track work in progress (WIP) by hand, walking the floor, counting orders and updating spreadsheets or job boards. Some record WIP using gum sheets in a production book and transfer the data into a legacy ERP or a spreadsheet. Today, there is a much more efficient way to manage production and the manufacturing workforce by leveraging an automated, real-time Shopfloor Control and Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
Learn how Carhartt, with over 130 years of history producing workwear for hardworking people, built on its heritage of manufacturing operations excellence by:
• implementing a shopfloor control MES
• eliminating manual processes
• achieving real-time visibility into WIP, and
• increasing productivity by 13% in just one year
