Abstract/Summary
Fil-Pacific Apparel Corporation is a manufacturer and exporter of casual bottoms. Its local products include JAG jeans and apprel. On the other hand, its export products include jeans such Levi's, Anne Taylor, Tommy Hilfiger and many more. In this study, the focus was placed on the manufacturing department of the export division.;"The manufacturing department of the export division uses different kinds of subcontractors to perform the processing. Through the study, it was found out that Fil-Pacific Apparel Corporation was experiencing a 42.3833% short-shipment within the span of six months. Thus, incurring PhP34,487, 429.90 loss for the company.
The short-shipment of products was mainly caused by three factors. These were the unaccounted lost garments, operator's error and miller's error. All of these causes when combined constitute 88% of the whole short-shipment.";"In order to solve the problem regarding the unaccounted lost garments, an assessment of the job order completion per subcontractor was proposed. On the other hand, a temporary increase in the cut quantity with a subcontractor accreditation program was proposed in order to solve the problem with regards to the operator error. Lastly, it was proposed that the supplier be required to deliver additional rolls to compensate for the defects to be incurred.
The general objective of this study is to decrease the cost of short-shipment by 30%. Through the proposed system, a decrease of 44.762% in the short-shipment cost is expected to be equivalent to PhP 15,437,623.20.
