Abstract

The capacity to optimise resource utilisation efficiency and effectiveness via the application of industrial engineering techniques such as line balance and time study is essential to haberdashery manufacturing industries' current competitiveness. Due to a lack of understanding of industrial engineering processes and their practical implementation, only a few garment sectors have grasped their purpose. It was discovered after some investigation that the packing department is dealing with several issues that have an impact on the output performance and quality. The purpose of this research is to use elemental breakdown analysis to re-evaluate a haberdashery product's standard operating procedure. Several objectives were developed and based on the context and problem statement listed. The primary objective is to analyze the haberdashery product's present line balancing performance and suggest a new SOP to improve it. Analyzing line balancing performance and recommending a new SOP for the haberdashery product are the main goals. The methodology employed involves data collection methods and procedures for conducting time studies to optimize line balancing efficiency and overall productivity. Based on my findings, the outcomes would be influenced by improving the precision of standard time through time study, eliminating non-value-added activities from tasks, and modifying the work organization among the employees and workstations through line balancing approaches. The packing lines will gradually function more efficiently and effectively with the proposed improved SOP. As a result of the final discussion, nine SOPs were proposed.
