The Indian garment industry is facing difficult competition in the world market, where the price plays a significant role in securing orders. System transparency, premium quality of goods, superior service and on-time delivery help in establishing a strong relationship with the customers. Garment producers are forced to increase their productivity, reduce cost, adapt to the demand cycle and improve quality because of increased competition and product diversity. Competitive and efficient is the only way to survive in all respects. The real-time production data will be helpful for garment producers to control and assess their performance regularly in terms of their productivity as well as efficiency.

A real-time production monitoring system (PMS) is a tool that can help the manufacturers to identify problems as soon as they arise. It also helps in gathering and distributing information to the concerned people and thus helps to achieve production milestones at reduced down time and increased yield.
