PRODUCTION CONTROL

 



The CAMS 10i Production Control Module is a comprehensive set of programs and data structures with a an interactive browser-based user interface that will help the production and sourcing team plan, control and track apparel production, local manufacturing or off-shore.

The reports and documents referred to below are generated online and output to the browser in full colour and GUI. In most cases, the actual printing of the document may be by-passed altogether – making this a paperless environment.

These applications are integrated to the CAMS 10i Action Notices and Smart-Mail.

This module will provide the following functionality:

Generate and print production orders, cutting slips, material and trim requisitions, and bills of labour and operations. For CMT or subcontractors these documents may be referenced to purchase orders, as appropriate.

Generate and print related documents such as technical specifications, sewing instructions and sketches and pictures that were entered in the PDM.

Weekly production schedules by plant and function or phase. A drill-down shows the scheduled production orders at a phase and plant. Another drill-down query shows a summary of materials/trims requirements for production scheduled at a plant. Schedules will include pre-production work as defined in the PDM.



PRODUCTION CONTROL

QC Sample Tracking

Plant load map showing capacity versus load by plant/contractor and week in minutes and units. Plant capacity and shift hours may be maintained in an easy-to-use interface. The level of detail may be limited to operation groups, bottleneck operations, specialty operations.

Exception reporting on late production, under-over capacity, unbalanced plant loads or mismatched skills (where specialty work is assigned to a plant without the skill). Action Notices will be sent automatically through CAMS Smart-Mail to the designated tracking and supervisory personnel, as exception conditions arise.

• The plant or contractor may enter work-in-process movement and transfers on the Internet (access is controlled and restricted). WIP valuation reports by location. WIP movement may be at the style, colour or size levels (depending on the plant’s ability to report.)

• Control of production labour and raw material cost and consumption against a lot or sub-lot. This module interfaces to the material and trim inventory for consumption tracking by location. History of transfers, adjustments, receipts.

Connecting the World


Off-Shore-Manufacturing
The cams 10i integrated offshore manufacturing module will help you manage the supply chain. This internet based module is integrated with product development and merchandise.



Suppliers and agents will have access to core programs using the web interface. This will allow agents and factories secure real-time access to spec details, sample measurements, construction sketches, fabric swatches, label placement, etc...
