dc.description.abstract	Traditionally operated garment industries are facing problems like low productivity, longer production lead time, high rework and rejection, poor line balancing, low flexibility of style changeover etc. These problems were addressed in this study by the implementation of lean tools like cellular manufacturing, single piece flow, work standardization, just in time production etc. After implementation of lean tools, results observed were highly encouraging. Some of the key benefits entail production cycle time decreased, number of operators required to produce equal amount of garment is decreased, rework level reduced production lead time. Apart from these tangible benefits operator multi-skilling as well as the flexibility of style changeover has been improved. This study is conducted in the Cutting, Sewing and Finishing section in knitwear manufacturing company. Study includes time studies, the conversion of traditional batch production into single piece flow and long assembly line into small work cells	en_US
