Abstract
The present study demonstrates the application of industrial engineering tools in a clothing manufacturing small and medium-sized enterprises. A method study, layout redesign, and line balancing are used to assess garment production issues such as excess inventory, incorrect plant layout, production delays, and order fulfillment issues. Finally, we propose a solution model using these tools to optimize the production process. Results reveal the usefulness of these optimization tools for improving both efficiency and revenue at the company level.
