This thesis focuses on observing and evaluating the manufacturing of a fitting series of a work outfit that consists of a pair of pants and a jacket. The theory part includes work analysis, optimization of the patterns, optimization of the work area and cost efficiency. The practical part of the thesis focuses on manufacturing the fitting series of the work outfit. The conclusion of the thesis consists of my observations on the manufacturing of the fitting series of the work outfit.
Work analysis observes and evaluates the work as a process. It tries to find the most efficient way to manufacture while also considering the workers and their wellbeing. With work analysis, it is possible to find ways of improving the manufacturing process.
Optimization of the patterns helps to reduce the waste and thus costs.
Optimization of the work area makes the sewing process more fluent. You can achieve efficiency by planning the sewing area in a way that it minimizes the transition times and that the workers have an ergonomic and comfortable place to work.
The cost-efficiency part of this thesis includes steps such as cutting the time it takes to produce the garment, utilizing the most optimal machinery for the job and design of the garment.
