Coats Digital has announced the adoption of its FastReactPlan by leading, ready-made garment specialist, Searock Apparels Ltd., to digitally transform its production processes, enable fast and accurate capacity plans, on-time deliveries and boost profits.
The implementation of this solution is expected to boost productivity by 3 per cent, minimising idle production lines, firefighting, and material wastage while ensuring Searock Apparels’ accelerated growth.
Khandokar Fazlay Rabbi, Managing Director, Searock Apparels Ltd., explained the requirement of FastReactPlan in the garment industry and its importance to eliminate manual work and ensure accurate information, productivity, and efficiency.
Rabbi stated, “Without a fast and accurate single source of capacity planning information, our teams lacked the visibility they needed to provide precise production and shipment timelines, line availability and error-free Time & Action (T&A) and Bill of Materials (BOM) reports.”
He further added, “As a result, we regularly suffered from over- and under-bookings, unnecessary overtime and excess material costs, idle line time and consistent firefighting to meet shipment deadlines. FastReactPlan will make a huge difference to our productivity and efficiency levels and will significantly improve our profit margins quickly, so that we can plan more effectively and drive future growth.”
FastReactPlan is the key to efficient production in footwear and apparel manufacturing factories. It streamlines planning, integrates capacity and simplifies scheduling with its visual and flexible ‘drag and drop’ approach.
Mitali Chakrabartty, Business Development Manager, Coats Digital, said, “We are delighted that Searock Apparels has joined our growing global family of newly digitised fashion manufacturing partners. FastReactPlan will provide greater visibility and one version of the truth for all its capacity planning teams, so it can easily optimise efficiencies and eradicate problems quickly.”
She added, “Once the solution has been rolled out, we expect to deliver a 3% productivity improvement, quickly. We are honoured that FastReactPlan will play such an instrumental role in Searock’s digitization journey and we look forward to working with them on a long-term basis to ensure they achieve their business goals.”
