Chapter One Industry Background

1. The status quo of the clothing, footwear and hat industry

As clothing, footwear and hats are characterized by rapid changes in colors, styles, and varieties, manufacturers in the footwear and clothing industry are required to manage production, inventory, and distribution turnover to continuously improve. Out-of-season varieties should be cleared out of the counter quickly and replaced with new varieties. Inventory should not be overstocked, and the overstocked products will cause a great burden on the enterprise. To control the quantity of inventory, to ensure that the sales department has suitable varieties on the counter to meet the needs of customers; at the same time, it is necessary to ensure that most of the products produced can be sold and that a large amount of unsalable inventory will not be generated. The key issue to consider.

The emergence and application of RFID technology will greatly promote the development of production, inventory, distribution, sales, and retail store management in the field of apparel, footwear and hats.

2. About EPC and RFID technology

EPC (Electronic Product Code) is a globally unified identification system newly developed in the world in recent years, and it is a revolutionary new technology.

The EPC system based on the Internet and RFID technology will construct an “Internet of Things (Internet of Things)” that realizes the real-time sharing of global item information. The EPC system is mainly composed of the following six parts: EPC coding standard, EPC electronic label, RFID reader, object name resolution service, and entity markup language. The EPC system applies traditional barcode technology to the identification and management of item categories, and develops RFID technology to the identification and management of individual items. After barcode technology, it will once again revolutionize product production, inventory, logistics, and products. A new technology in the tracking management model is the extension and expansion of the application of bar code technology.

Chapter Two Branded Clothing, Footwear, and Hat Lines to Anti-counterfeit and Integrated Logistics Application

1. The anti-counterfeiting function of the brand

The brand clothing industry is the most suitable industry for applying RFID technology due to its characteristics. First of all, let’s look at how branded clothing can use RFID technology to improve the benefits:

In the clothing production process, use the electronic tag writer to write some important attributes of a single piece of clothing such as name, grade, article number, model, fabric, lining, washing method, implementation standard, product number, inspector number, etc. Enter the corresponding electronic tag and attach the electronic tag to the garment. The attachment method of the electronic tag can be: implanted in the clothing, made into a nameplate or tag, or adopts a recyclable anti-theft hard tag, etc.

In this way, each piece of clothing is given a unique electronic tag identification that is difficult to forge, which can effectively avoid counterfeiting and well solve the anti-counterfeiting problem of brand clothing.

2: Placement location:

1: Put it on the nameplate of the clothes, the ready-made clothes will have multiple nameplates to record its various information, we can add a nameplate with a built-in UHF tag, which has the advantage of easy installation and easy reading, but it is sold This label must be added and destroyed after it is released to prevent others from maliciously reusing it.

2: Place it at the neckline mark on the back of the clothes. Although the placement here can be with the clothes for a long time, the label must be protected during the production process to prevent the label from being nailed during sewing. In addition, the label can be waterproof, but it cannot be rubbed. That is, it will damage the label during the washing process. In addition, it does not have the effect of maintaining confidentiality, and it is easy to be reused by others and become shoddy.

Suggestion: choose the nameplate type, remove the label after selling, keep it in the store, and then send it back to the factory via the Internet. The factory can know which area and model of clothes are good for sale in the first time. The rapid circulation of the product is of great help.

3. Integrated application of logistics

In the factory entry and exit management, logistics distribution center entry and exit management and retail store entry management, due to the non-visual reading of RFID technology and the simultaneous reading of multiple tags, dozens of pieces of clothing with electronic tags are attached. The whole box of goods can be accurately read all its logistics data at one time through the RFID reader, which greatly improves the logistics efficiency. If store sales are also realized by using RFID technology, the optimal management of the entire supply chain process of “shop replenishment demand—distribution center—manufacturer” can be realized.

Chapter 3 Automation of System Management

1. Automate process management

1. Procurement control
Establishing a file of material supply information can effectively control the quality and price of the material. The code of the purchased material is affixed with an electronic label for unique identification, which is convenient for inventory management.
2. Order matching
Purchase orders are often delivered multiple times, and orders are frequent. In order to ensure that the order and the arrival of the goods will not cause confusion, they must be matched one by one, and the arrival of each order can be checked at any time. The materials ordered should be uniquely identified with electronic tags to facilitate the inventory and investigation of the supplier’s product quality problems.
3. Supply cycle control
In order to ensure the needs of production and sales, and to reduce the inventory backlog of materials, the time of supply must be controlled. Through the supplier’s unique number and service quality certification, the supply time of each material is accurately calculated, and orders can be ordered as needed to ensure immediate production.
4. Quality tracking
By matching the quality inspection form with the electronic label identifier of the purchased product, the quality responsibility of the supplier can be effectively investigated.
5. Entrusted processing control
Many manufacturers only operate their own brands, and generally entrust OEM manufacturers to manufacture and produce, and assign them to various OEM manufacturers to paste on the products through pre-designed electronic tags. It is easy to count during acceptance. Any quality problems found in the sales process can be directly investigated to the original manufacturer, and the remaining materials after commissioned processing can also be quickly calculated.
6. Cargo tracking in transit
Shoes, hats and clothing products are a kind of goods with a fast turnover. They are often put on the market quickly once production is completed and distributed to counters and retail stores in various places. The proportion of goods in the transportation process is relatively large (including inter-regional goods). Transfer). Using electronic tags as unique identifiers can accurately track the goods in transit, and can strictly guarantee the arrival time and quantity of the goods.

2. Production process management automation

1. Material cost control
All the used production materials have a unique number and are attached with electronic tags, which establishes strict material picking control. Through each type of product material list, the product production plan is broken down into a material use plan, the trim allowance is calculated reasonably, and the material consumption of each batch of products and the deviation from the standard cost are controlled.
2. Production statistics
Through label identification, it can automatically complete product output statistics, waste statistics, and material consumption statistics.
3. Order quotation
For each received order, it has always been a headache for customers. Because of the cost data (work time and material consumption) of a single product, the profit margin can be easily calculated.
4. Piece counting statistics
Many companies adopt the piece rate method, and piece rate statistics is a very tedious task. Through the single tracking technology, the electronic label identification on each product and the production operation sheet, it is easy to count the output completed by each worker, and the responsible personnel can also be held for defective products.

3. Automation of product distribution and warehouse management
1. Distribution of ordered products
Due to the complexity and diversity of order products, manual distribution is inefficient. Write the order product information in the electronic label and paste it on the surface of the packaging box to quickly and effectively distribute the products.
2. Multi-database collaborative work
For the needs of circulation, the products of enterprises in the footwear and apparel industry are often distributed in different warehouses in various places for transfer, distribution, and replenishment. There are also many types of warehouses, such as: finished product warehouse, raw material warehouse, circulation warehouse, turnover warehouse, scattered small warehouses, etc. The inventory of each warehouse needs to be monitored daily to ensure timely supply. Through warehouse management automation, the inventory of each warehouse can be checked at any time, so that the logistics process of products can be tracked in time.
3. Warehouse receipt and offer operations
One of the most important tasks in warehouse management is to ensure that the booked quantity is consistent with the actual quantity. The use of a reader can easily realize the accuracy of the goods receipt record and the automation of the delivery and distribution, so that there will be no omissions in inventory and inventory. Lost.
4. First in, first out
Each product has its inventory period. Due to the many types of products, it is difficult to ensure accurate first-in, first-out products through manual records and custodian records in actual warehouse management. Through the label information in the product, you can clearly understand the status of each product, so that you can ensure that the goods are shipped out of the warehouse within the specified time limit.
5. Out of stock alarm
When there is a shortage of a certain product in any warehouse, not only can the alarm be automatically prompted, but it can also be subdivided into details of product composition such as model type, color, and size. That is, if a certain size of a certain style is broken, the custodian can immediately be reminded to replenish the goods in time.
6. Statistics of slow-moving products
The backlog of products in the clothing, footwear and hat industry is a very headache. Through statistics on unsalable products, the stay time of each product (subdivided into models, colors, and sizes) can be obtained, and it is possible to quickly find out which products are unsalable and out of season. , You can easily provide price reduction decisions to accelerate product sales.
