12. Conclusion Conclusion Finally we can say that for Finally we can say that for smooth & quick production smooth & quick production within a minimum time, with within a minimum time, with the other criteria (planning, the other criteria (planning, costing etc), a proper layout plan costing etc), a proper layout plan of the production machineries of the production machineries are essential. The flow of raw are essential. The flow of raw material (fabrics) to the final material (fabrics) to the final product (garments) should be product (garments) should be smooth. Otherwise large number smooth. Otherwise large number production within a time limit is production within a time limit is not possible . not possible .
