Exploring The Reform Of Garment Industry: The Role Of Sinbad'S Flexible Supply Chain

With the continuous development of the garment industry, the traditional supply chain has exposed more and more problems. Sales decline, homogenization, inventory backlog and capital turnover have become a stubborn problem in clothing management. Finding effective ways to solve problems has become the trend of garment industry. Industry experts point out that the traditional supply chain is in urgent need of reform. In this process, the flexible supply chain plays an important role.

Flexible production service highlights advantages

As everyone knows, Fashion trends The update speed is very fast. The traditional apparel industry chain has been in the planning industry from 6 years to 9 months from planning, design to production, and some products have been imported for 14 months. Because the supply chain determines the brand's ability to respond to consumers, and the trend of the current clothing brand is moving toward "small and beautiful" direction, small orders will also become a common phenomenon. Reporters learned that to adapt to the "small and beautiful" brand demand, can provide clothing flexible production services Sinbad become an example of the industry. The Sinbad supply chain is the first flexible production service provider of "flexible, single volume, multi style and fast production" for China's first "professional" service provider, providing a one-stop, comprehensive supply chain solution for the vast majority of clothing business operators.

Compared with the traditional clothing supply chain, Sinba flexible supply chain is more flexible. The flexible supply chain of Sinbad has enough flexibility, and its capacity can respond quickly to market demand, helping garment sellers / brands to advance to 10 days from the past 6 months, with a single volume flexibility of 100. Tens of thousands of pieces can guarantee the average production period of 7.4 days, 3 days of large quantities of single order, timely delivery, uniform quality control, the supply chain's flexibility and rapid response to the market to the utmost. Help garment sellers / brands seize the fashion trend, increase sales opportunities and eliminate inventory backlog risks.

Sinbad's flexible supply chain platform is established.

The Sinbad supply chain is the product of the era of e-commerce. In the background of most electricity providers in the profit model, there is a problem, that is, the electricity supplier began to appear structural difficulties. The reason for this problem is that during the rapid development of Ali from 2006 to 2008, many people moved the products under the line to the online business with the help of the mode of electronic commerce. Although the total volume of e-commerce was enlarged, it was still a mass production mode. The product was not personalized, and the competition of homogenization was severe. The result was price war and crude manufacturing. At that time, in China's economic downturn, the whole garment industry, especially the low-end supply chain, was in a big environment like "bad money drives out good money" for many years, and hundreds of millions of textile and garment workers in China were full of sense of powerlessness and frustration. Clothing sellers face the supply chain, anxious and helpless. They have only two choices, buying the spot or producing the order themselves. Buying spot will face the risk of "shortage and low quality". The order production must be faced with the risk of "big factories do not receive small bills, small factories are unstable in quality or delivery is not in time".

It was from then on that the founding team of Sinbad realized that even if more than a dozen factories were built, it would not be able to solve the needs of the rapid production of small quantities of more than 300 million electricity suppliers in China at that time. To do something meaningful for the entire industry and even the industry, it is not just a few factories to change the whole industry from the root cause. After repeated reflection, the Sinbad team thought of the "platform" mode, and wanted to make use of its own experience in the supply chain to really help those garment brands. Platform mode is to integrate some conscious and powerful small and medium quality clothing manufacturers under traditional Chinese lines, manage them with a set of rules and methods, and release these capacities through platform to the vast majority of current and future garment business providers, and to serve the production of large customized garments at present and in the future. Only in this way can we have the opportunity to make the whole garment market flourishing, so that the brand can live better. This is the rudiment of the final idea of Sinbad.

In November 2012, Sinbad was formally established to focus on the flexible transformation of the apparel supply chain. The service of Sinbad is part of the demand for small fast OEM under the line. Clothing brand The other part is millions of clothing business operators on platforms such as Taobao and Tmall. By offering 100 orders and 3 days of large scale production of flexible production services, Sinbad has caught the changing fashion trend for clothing brands, thus easing the pressure of inventory. For apparel brands, flexible production can fundamentally solve the problems in the camp.

Four stages of the development of Sinbad Enterprises

The development strategy of enterprises is particularly important for the development of any enterprise. Clear and clear development strategy objectives can make all members and society clear the common goal of the enterprise, and then enhance the cohesion and centripetal force of the enterprise. The development process of Sinbad is the process of exploring truth in practice. It is understood that in the course of the development of Sinbad, there is a clear trial and error period, which is basically divided into four stages: the first stage, the group transformation of large factories; the second phase of the small factories, the optimization of the management of the small factories; in the third stage, the whole supply chain is modularized, and the reformed objects are still small factories; in the fourth stage, the data of the module units are computerized. When it comes to modularization, Sinbad invented the modularized production mode, optimized and reorganized the traditional factory capacity, and reformed the traditional production mode, thus improving the production efficiency and production quality.

Cloud net end mode for apparel flexible supply chain

Sinbad combines the original modular production and lean production to make the garment supply chain perfect.

In the interview with reporters, the founder of Sinbad said: "the current mode of Sinbad is a typical" cloud, network and terminal "system from the perspective of industrial SAAS. First of all, cloud surface is the core of data + algorithm. Sinbad models all orders and capacity data to store Yu Yunduan for real-time control of company personnel and external customers. The core of docking the "order model" and "productivity model" is the algorithm. According to the size, quality and delivery requirements of the order model, the system automatically generates scheduling algorithm, and matches the matching workshop to generate production plan. Secondly, the network level, the network level, namely the four roles of the business network, including brand customers, capacity system, supply chain experts, production service center; The last is the end level, that is, to fulfill orders, orders and production schedule management. Workshops achieve orders and grab orders through the terminal, supply chain experts update production schedule through the end, customers place orders through the end and master the production schedule.

It is not hard to see that the emergence of Sinba's flexible supply chain has led to the reform of traditional supply chain. Both theoretical data and clothing sellers' experience in flexible production services show clearly the advantages of Sinbad in reforming the traditional supply chain. In addition to the Sinba flexible supply chain Garment industry The significance of reform is also of reference value to the supply chain reform of other industries.
