Internship week 2 part 1

Internship week 2

Now i am writin this blog a day early becauz of the learning i ve had this week

I understood where i am placed how my team works and how I should Work .

So we are a team of

Harpreet (Production Head)

Aarti (Head mechandiser Fat Face)

Riya (Merchandiser fr many buyers )

Shivangi ( Mechandiser Fat Face )

The teams are divided according to the buyer they Handle my team handles fat face . This is the same for tailors to masters to a ca

so what ever i do is for this co.(fat face) if thy require me to design i design for this company or mechandise i do for this one these are the people who make work all over the place


As soon as i reached office on the first day of the second week i was sent for sourcing to Govind puri
what kind of the hub that place i came to know that day only
hearing about it and feeling about it are two different things
I went with Mr Rakesh he has been working in the field for the past twelve years .With immense amount of expierience in the field of sourcing i went from shop to shop in scorching heat. The best part of it was that he was entertaning all of my question regarding the behaviour of different markets in delhi and outside .Plus I came to know what all we can get in govindpuri frm gali no.4 to Gali No. 16
Gali no. 4 for laces and trims
Gali no. 6 for all kind off buttons and fusing rolls
Gali no. 16 for all kinds of machine parts ( i got too see 60 different kind of preasure foots)
and the shops located outside on the roads are reliable but still better to go inside the dark and dingy lanes of govindpuri . and even Mr rakesh also said to ask him if require his help in the future

Now on the second day was a bit dramatic becauz i ll tell u later

Firstly i was given the cost sheet of the garments . Now thats what i am talkin about. Getting to knw the inside of the garment industry hw do they do there costing and all. So i saw that costting sheet which mailed to the buyer was not so complexed apparently things such as thread needles electricity were covered under one heading they even charged for the labels also .
But the interesting part was they didnt let the costing sheep increase more than 10 gbp (great britain pound) or Rs 790 .  Like that was the golden rule . Plus the costing of the garment was not actual the price of the fabric ws not rite sme were priced more apparently. As they purchase in bulk i suppose they must get it in a cheaper way

the profit margin was given a fancy word and was kept at 25 % of the C P


So my learning was how to make a professional cost sheet not the rite way but the buyer's way.

today i practically urged them for some design work becauz aftr designing one motif and they showed me some dreams about designing . I thoought they are never gonnaa cum true
later after a few discussions they handed over me the summer season mood board for fat face collection .
Atlast after a few requests and strict request to annoying my boss to request we got some sillouhettes development exercise
 i dnt hav all tht rite now i ll click the pictures and post it tomorw
I hav to see office politics also here
all tht glitters is not gold
A lot of bitching goes around here .but thts a part of ur corporate life.

next upload will be full of pictures

shld i request fr design related work or stick to the work they give me ????

What i learnt frokm running around the facility
is
1 . how to make people do your work
2. they wont unless you yourself check on them
3. Different techniques of patternmaking by master
i ve learnt a way how to get the grain line straight without makin the grain line on a knit fabric
4.I ve learnt how to use the gun used in spotting

And more about my observation will be added to the next post
