Abstract
The deviation of the actual output from the planned output has become a crucial problem in apparel industries. Many factors affect this difference, and most decision support systems use conventional approaches to optimize the Standard Minute Value (SMV) production processes. However, these approaches fail to address the problem accurately when the production process has more decisions to be taken. Therefore, this study aims to propose a mathematical model to the layout plan of a production line to solve this problem. In this study, we formulate a Generalized Assignment of Standard Minute Value (GASMV) model and apply the model to a case study related to a garment production line of an apparel manufacturing company to determine the optimal solution. The study concludes that the number of defects and the golden hour output are strongly negatively correlated. The results show that the proposed mathematical model provides the best SMV with the optimal assignments to each operation which is less than the specified SMV by the conventional approaches.
