EXPORT HOUSE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS Export house development the factoring of the lifetime of an export house into two stages (1) export house development (2) systems operation and maintenance Export house development methodology A standardized development process that defines a set of activities that export house developers and project managers use to develop and continuously improve export house profits. 1. Recognition of need must know what the problem is before it can be solved. basis for a export house is recognition of a need for improving an information system or a procedure. this need leads to a preliminary survey or initial investigation.
one

Owners first task is to prepare a statement specifying the scope and objective of the problem. And then prepare the proposal review of the proposal. 2. Feasibility study depending on the results of the initial investigation, the survey is expanded to a more detailed feasibility study. it is a test of a system proposal according to its workability, impact on the organization, ability to meet user needs, and effective use of resources. It focuses on two major questions: _ what are the owners needs and how does a export house meet them. _ what resources are available for a given export house. Is the problem worth solving? Feasibility checkpoints a. scope definition feasibility is a measure of the urgency of the problem and the first-cut estimate of development costs. b. Problem analysis after a more detailed study and problem analysis of the current system, owner has to make better estimates of development costs and benefits of the new system. c. Decision analysis alternative decisions are defined in terms of their input/output methods, storage methods, computer machine/manpower requirements, processing methods, and people implications. Five tests for feasibility a. Operational feasibility a measure of how well a solution will work or be accepted in an organization. b. Usability analysis a test of the systems user resources. c. Technical feasibility a measure of the practicality of a technical solution and the availability of technical resources and expertise. d. Schedule feasibility a measure of how reasonable the project timetable is.

Costs for proposed export house. The result of feasibility study is a request proposal document. It summarizes what is known and what is going to be done. 3. The request proposal The request proposal A report or presentation of a recommended project solution. usually formal written report or oral presentation. intended for system owners and users. a. Primary elements present the actual information that the report is intended to convey. b. Secondary elements package the report so the reader can easily identify the report and its primary elements. In this project we set up an industry EGO Exports Pvt. Ltd. A work-wear producing industry with exports to the European Union[EU].

ABOUT THE COMPANY The company to be established is a 100% garment export company. Following are the basic details of the company: COMPANY NAME: EGO Exports (P) Ltd. PROPOSED LOCATION: Cochin,Kerela TYPE OF OWNERSHIP : private limited TYPE OF INDUSTRY: medium scale industry MARKET: European Union PRODUCT: work wear

Work wear is a category of textile garments that includes the garments specifically to be worn in the industrial working environment. In the international market, the term work wear includes a broad range of categories like industrial clothing, medical clothing, uniforms, as well as special clothing like safety clothing, protective clothing, etc. While in the domestic market, the categories of the work wear are known by the names like Boiler suits, bibs and braces, American overalls, dust coats, two piece working suits (jackets and trousers), work shirts, womens overalls, aprons, doctors coat and nurses coat. It also includes uniforms for hotels & catering establishments and garments for health care like several kinds of dresses, aprons, hospital uniforms and operation theatre clothing. BRAND NAME: EGO Project Brief Most of the production of the subject project will be for export purpose and hence contribute in the earning of foreign exchange for the country. There is a vast range of work wear products . However, this project is based on the production of standard Basic Overall. Initially, for some time period this unit might be operating on CMT (Cut, Manufacture & Trim (commercial) basis), but ultimately this would be an export-oriented unit. Therefore, all the calculations and financial workings have been done while treating this as an export based project. Proposed Capacity 400 Garments / Day (29 Stitching Machines)

SCOPE STUDY. Studies conclude that Indian exports to the EU are, on the whole, export competitive. Sectorwise analysis of the export performance of Indian textile and clothing sectors to EU reveal that insofar as apparel exports are concerned, quota had indeed been a constraint for most of cotton apparels and made-ups that India exported to these two markets. Indian clothing sectors have a tremendous potential, only a portion of which has been exploited due to policy constraints. And where exploited, Indian entrepreneurs have done the country proud. Very much in consonance with what has been noted on EU import trends, it is clear that EUs imports of made-ups and garments is noticeable. EU import of all other garment categories have grown quite appreciably in value terms. Woven shirts is a category that became a winner since the quotas were lifted. India is a high-ranking exporter to EU of made-ups and garrments. Export of Indian fabric to EU in future is likely to pick up substantially. Made-up exports to EU are a very big opportunity for India. The business of industrial clothing has great potential in the export as well as in the local market. The sub sector of industrial clothing/professional clothing/work wear is an attractive investment opportunity as the imports of professional clothing have been strongly increasing during the recent years. Total world import of work wear in 2004 stood at US $ 4.56 billion. Annual growth in world imports on YoY basis was 8.63% and wrt 2000 19.22%. These figures show a vibrant opportunity in international market. Following are some of the factors on the basis of which this project becomes an attractive investment opportunity. Decrease in domestic production of European countries. An increased awareness of safety on the work floor, simulated by the governments. Work wear/safety clothing is strongly recommended under this theme. Diversification towards high tech industries. Removal of quotas on textiles. In spite of having a very strong textile base and huge market, work wear segment could not be developed effectively by our apparel industry during the past years. This is because that the concept of the work wear is relatively new in the international as well as in the local markets as compared to the traditional woven and knit-based garments. There is also a lack of awareness about this sub-sector of clothing in our country. Potential Consumers The potential consumers of work wear products are industrial workers in foreign and domestic markets, who are engaged in large scale and medium scale industries. The potential industries for work wear are heavy process industry, light industry, hotel sector, retail sector and public utilities. In most of industries, one person uses about three sets of industrial clothing per year.

REQUIREMENT STUDY Raw material The basic raw material, for the manufacturing of work wear, is dyed woven fabric with different sort of finishes on it. The woven fabric that is used in the manufacturing of work wear is made of cotton or polyester/cotton blends. The weight of these fabrics normally varies from 200-300 grams/sq.m The weight of the finish is not included in these figures. Other raw materials that are used in the manufacturing of work wear are buttons, threads, labels, zippers and packing material. Land 3300sq.ft of land is require for this industry. Infrastructure Requirements Well laid internal road net work Dedicated sub-stations for electricity, Storm water drains, Conveyance pipeline for carrying effluents Common Facilities Centre for Post Office, Bank, Fire Station and Container services.
