Jaza Software: Boosting Productivity and Efficiency in Apparel Industry through Digital Solutions
According to a report by Wazir Advisors, the global apparel demand is expected to boost at a steady CAGR of 5% to grow from the current US$ 1.9 trillion to reach US$ 2.6 trillion by 2025. This growth rate can be attributed to the rapidly growing middle class, the mobile revolution and the deep penetration of internet. The Apparel market offers a great promise but some challenges prevail in the industry as well.Among the two main fashion supply chain verticals i.e. Retail and Manufacturing, the retail has adopted modern technologies aggressively. E-commerce and fashion brands are using advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality, etc. to capture more markets. But when it comes to the manufacturing, there is complete lack of innovation. They are still using obsolete and inefficient ways to respond to the changing environment.
The COVID 19 Pandemic will further put pressure on the manufacturers to work with tight margins and shorter lead times. It will demand increased operational efficiency, more flexibility and better quality. The companies who can offer better cost and reduced lead-time without compromising quality will emerge stronger. Digitalization is the key to achieving these objectives.
This is where Jaza Software comes into the picture. They design smart software solutions that boost productivity and efficiency in the apparel manufacturing industry. Jaza Software leverages advanced technologies like AI, cloud computing, predictive analytics, etc. to design exceptional digital solutions that increase operational efficiency. In a very short span of time, it is serving 11 factories spread across 3 countries.
Tailored Solutions for the Apparel Manufacturing
The apparel supply chain has its own challenges because of the flexible and dynamic requirements of the industry. To design a solution, one must understand the industry in depth. To overcome this challenge, Jaza software adopts co-designing technique where they involve some of the best factories throughout the development phase. This enables the company to understand the problem and needs of the user from a close proximity.
Jaza Software’s flagship software solutions OptaFloor and OptaCut, cover almost the entire supply chain in the apparel manufacturing domain and together they can boost productivity by up to 40%.
OptaFloor- Shop Floor Optimization Software
A solution that goes beyond Real-time tracking by automating many processes using advanced algorithms and predictive analytics. It brings complete transparency and provides automated reports in real-time on factory Floor. It captures data through a tablet installed at each work station on shop floor.
The live-line balancing is the real deal of the solution. Through line-balancing module you can allocate operators automatically where it uses auto-prepared skill matrix, operation bulletin, production target and operator attendance. The system can allocate workers at 15 to 20% higher efficiency compared to manual allocation. During the production hours it continuously monitors WIP at each work station and predicts bottleneck in advance through predictive analytics. Then it does not only alert the production manger of the bottleneck but it also provides solution with new allocation plan.
Another great module in OptaFloor is smart quality management system that provides real-time intelligence on defect rates and also predicts the critical operations even before a style is loaded in line by analysing similar styles produced in the past.
It has several other modules and features including downtime management, preventive maintenance, operator skill upgradation, etc. This solution has a potential to change the face of the manufacturing industry and can increase factory efficiency by up to 25%.
OptaCut- Fabric Optimization Software
OptaCut is a fabric optimisation software that can save up to 10% fabric through intelligent algorithmic planning at different stages of order processing. Even 2 to 3% fabric savings can result in up to 15% increase in profitability because fabric constitutes almost 60-70% of the total garment cost.
Most companies focus only on marker efficiency for optimizing the fabric. Jaza Software approach is to target all the processes and involve each team like merchandising, sourcing, CAD, and cutting to save maximum fabrics. OptaCut provides a platform where all teams work together to achieve the common goal. OptaCut automates several processes in these departments and uses almost 15 different algorithms to optimize the fabric utilization.
A team of Experts driving innovation
Jaza Software possesses a team of brilliant minds from two different fields- apparel industry experts and passionate developers who work together to create innovative solutions. The company has been co-founded by Md Jawed Akhtar (CEO), a graduate from National Institute of Fashion Technology with experience in apparel industry, and Md Zahid Raza (CTO), an Engineer from NIT Jamshedpur who had the privilege to work as Sr. R&D Engineer in HPE. Their mission is to develop innovative and user-friendly software solutions for the apparel industry at the lowest possible price.
