12. 9/27/2016 Tech Pack (1)  It is an assemblage of information required by an apparel manufacturer to create, put together, and package a garment.  It encompasses all the garment specifications needed before mass production.  The package can be simple or complex, depending on the user’s needs.  The design of a technical package, also know as a production package, varies greatly within the industry.  The production department uses the tech-pack as a reference and guide for bulk manufacturing.

13. 9/27/2016 Tech Pack (2)  The tech pack maybe used in the following ways: 1. The production department can go into the manufacturing process without needing to refer back to the design team. 2. Merchandisers and sourcing agents can ensure required materials are made available for production in proper quantities and on time. 3. Marketing can use the document in presentations or to sell styles to key customers before line samples are made. 4. Various departments within the common can refer to the tech-pack for points of discussion. 5. The tech-pack brings unity and efficiency to a company.

14. 9/27/2016 Tech Pack (3)  It is graphic representation and written descriptions of styling, materials, dimensions, production procedures, and finishing instructions for a garment style.  contains complete product descriptions and expectations.  provides a basis for communication with everyone involved in the product development chain.

15. 9/27/2016 Tech Pack (4)  It is not only used throughout the firm for communication purpose, but they also form the basis for contracts with contractors and vendors for materials, production, and establishment of criteria for maintaining quality standards.  The importance of accurate communications provided by written and graphic specifications cannot be overemphasized in today's global environment.  No standard pack.  All packs should cover the basics.

35. 9/27/2016 PLM & PDM  It can be built using a different software application.  Product Lifestyle Management (PLM) is a popular software system, often used in conjunction with Product Data Management (PDM) software.  This information is produced at the source – this is, the employee who is responsible for a process or procedure enters the corresponding data.  Problems and errors can be identified quickly, saving time and costly production mistakes.

36. 9/27/2016 PDM System  Product Data Management (PDM)  It is a fully integrated system that offers sophisticated computer tools for designing on-screen.  The uniqueness of a PDM system: 1. All designs are generated on screen. 2. If you change a design (for example, the length of a skirt), the amount of the fabric and the cost of the fabric also changes automatically. 3. The information is automatically updated, enabling all staff members to view the entire development process. 4. In the long term, designs are improved, costs are reduced (because the trial and error steps are reduced), and communications are improved. The bottom line is value to the customer. A better product is delivered at the sharpest cost.
