This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous clothing industries face highly dynamic environments, and growth in this environment depends upon both external and internal factors. External factors are represented by aggressive competition and volatile product demand. Internally, the industry must face an increasingly shorter life cycle of the product and the need to innovate both product and organizational development. The competitive advantage of the industry lies in its ability to design a value-creating system based on the management of both external and internal relationships. The successful management of these relationships relies not only on successful customer relationship management but also on effective product supply and demand upkeep. Management and Inter/Intra Organizational Relationships in the Textile and Apparel Industry provides emerging research exploring relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research underlining the complexity of management applications within the textile industry. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as consumer relationships, cultural identity, and organizational culture, this book is ideally designed for researchers, academicians, professionals, and students working in various disciplines including management, industrial organization, organizational behavior, human resource management, decision science, design science, and information and communication. Moreover, the book will provide insights and support executives and managers of the textile and apparel industry concerned with the ethic design, contamination, and the management relationships with workers, customers, suppliers, the community, and organizational development.
Download or read book Sourcing Practices in the Apparel Industry written by Marlon Lezama and published by Commonwealth Secretariat. This book was released on 2004 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sourcing practices in the global apparel industry are changing because of the removal of quotas, new trade agreements, and a drive by apparel importers to lower costs. This study addresses the implications of these changes for garment manufacturers in Commonwealth developing countries. The principal research activities behind the book consisted of face-to-face interviews in North America with top sourcing executives of apparel importing companies and senior executives of apparel manufacturing companies and other stakeholders in six Commonwealth developing countries. The findings indicate that almost without exception apparel manufacturers are struggling to lower costs and to increase productivity so as to remain competitive. Government and industry are thus faced with critical decisions on how best to support the apparel industry in their respective countries. The principal outputs of the study are enterprise level guidelines to remain competitive in the face of evolving sourcing policies, technology, and practices, complemented by related frameworks at government and institutional levels.

This book was released on 2010-03-11 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quick Response (QR) policy is a market-driven business strategy in which supply chain members work together to react quickly to volatile market demand. Nowadays, with advances in information technologies (such as RFID and ERP systems), new challenges and opportunities arise for the application of QR. This handbook explores QR extensively with a view to discovering innovative QR measures that can help tackle the observed and emerging challenges. The book is organized into four parts, which include chapters on analytical modeling and analyses, information technologies, cases, reviews, and applications. This handbook provides new analytical and empirical results with valuable insights, which will not only help supply chain agents to better understand the latest applications of QR in business, but also help practitioners and researchers to know how to improve the effectiveness of QR using innovative methods.

Book excerpt: Threads of Labour presents new empirical research by a network of garment workers' support organizations and makes sense of global supply chains from the bottom up. Presents new empirical research by a network of garment workers' support organizations in ten different locations in Asia, Europe and Mexico. Creates a blueprint for conducting worker-orientated action research in order to better understand and resist the negative impact of globalization on labour. Ensures that workers' voices reach those who are already trying to reconfigure global capitalism in more humane directions. Explores the ways in which workers might begin to develop new forms of organization that are more suited to securing gains in the global garment industry. Bridges the gap between activist and academic research, improving the conversation between these two groups.

Abstract: ABSTRACT The present research is an attempt to analyze the experiences of Newly Industrializing Countries (NICs) from the standpoint: of the dependency perspective. In turn, it is hoped that the empirical study can throw light on possible areas of refinement for the approach. The research has focused on the garment industry of Hong Kong. As such, it is also hoped that the study can further our understanding of the Hong Kong society as well as contribute to knowledge on the constraints and opportunities specific to the said industry. As a strategy to comprehend the possible facets and impacts of dependency, the experience of the industry has been examined from three particular angles, namely: the historical, structural and enterprise level analyses. It has been found that concepts and methods generated by the seminal work of Cardoso and Faletto (1979) have been of unmistakable heuristic value for comprehending the experiences of the Newly Industrializing Countries, fey these, we refer to some core concepts such as the 'situations of dependence1, and more importantly, the historical structural method. The latter stipulates the need to look for both structures of continuity and processes of change on the one hand, and attend to factors both internal and external to the country on the other. With such a framework, we have defined the 'situation of11 dependence' for the present phase Hong Kong as industrialization through the international subcontracting system. The economic space making for Third World participation into the garment industry has been the end result of interactions among three different forces: technological change, social struggles among different sections of industrialists and workers of the developed countries, and finally, unintended consequences of interventions by the states of the developed countries. The continuous influences of these world economic forces have together with some indigenous social and political factors, delimited the economic opportunity structure for aspiring industrialists of Hong Kong. Most importantly, the external dependence has defined the kind of industrialists that are most likely to succeed in the industry and at the same time, 'discovered* various kinds of casualised labor to be structured into a pattern of internal dependence. In emphasizing the active participation of local actors in the annexation of the economic space, we have pointed to the potentially strategic role of petite industrial production, which has a certain history in pre-war Hong Kong. Contrary to popular beliefs, this particular instance of Hong Kong's insertion into the world economy has not so much been brought about by giant industrialists from mainland China, British merchants or the Colonial government. Finally, our examination of the routine encounters between local industrialists and sourcing agents from theiii developed world has shown that the more resourceful indigenous industrialists have tried (quite successfully) to negotiate for themselves a greater measure of autonomy. This has been done on the one hand, by manipulating the compositions and numbers of sourcing agents, and on the other, by subordinating the casualised labors. The latter serve to buffer those industrialists from fluctuations and instabilities that this kind of industrialization necessarily entails. With these, we have reasserted the value of industry specific study of dependency and suggested that dif
