5 # Pre-production (costing sample, sales sample)
[part 1]

The pre-production sample should be conducted before starting the bulk sewing. It is done to check the feasibility of the sewing operation during the bulk operation because so far the samples are made in the sampling section, sewn slowly taking enough time by the sampling men. But the production should be done at rapid speed to meet the targets. The sample is conducted to check the workmanship or any other quality parameters like puckering etc. at high speed operation.

This sampling stage is to prove the pattern, test cost effectiveness and consistency in production whether it is done in house or outsourced to a contractor. If the sample is approved, it would become the production sew by. Ideally, pre-production samples are used to pre-sell the product.
