Understanding Time & Action
TNA is essentially a detailed schedule outlining every step involved in the apparel production process, along with the estimated time required for each task. This schedule serves as a roadmap, guiding manufacturers from start to finish. It includes key milestones like:drive
- Design and sampling: Creating initial sketches, developing patterns, and producing sample garments.
- Material procurement: Sourcing fabrics, trims, and other necessary components.
- Cutting and sewing: Transforming raw materials into finished garments.
- Quality control: Inspecting garments to ensure they meet quality standards.
- Packaging and shipping: Preparing garments for delivery to retailers or customers.
