1. Sample Development

• Patterns Development:
  • Develop cut patterns based on net patterns developed by the Pattern Technologist.
  • Seek advice from Pattern Technologist to enhance the compliance to requirements, quality, manufacturability and materials utilization of the patterns as needed.
  • Make necessary changes to the cut patterns based on customer feedback for customer approval as needed.
• Sample Fitting: review sample measurements and fitting after sample making. Seek advice from Pattern Technologist and make necessary adjustments to the pattern as needed to meet internal and external requirements.

2. Patterns

• Customer Specification: work with CSP to obtain style information, fit preferences, and pattern requirements to enhance customer satisfaction with the Factory’s samples and bulk garments.
• Pattern Making:
  • Produce high quality cut patterns (including development sample, first sample, fit sample and PP sample and bulk production) based on net patterns developed by Pattern Technologist and customer’s requirements to support sample and bulk production.
  • Make necessary changes to the cut patterns based on customer feedback for customer approval.

• Pattern Quality: review with CSP, Sewing, QA and MM to ensure patterns produced satisfy relevant quality standards and grading scales. Refine the patterns to satisfy the standards when necessary.
• Pattern Filing: file net and cut patterns developed in line with the pattern organization SOP.

3. Production Preparation

• Pre-Production Preparation: attend cross-functional pre-production meetings to introduce the style to the downstream departments and collect any feedback from the downstream departments. Make changes to the cut patterns based on the feedback as appropriate.
