Introduction
The textile industry is a term used for industries primarily concerned with the design or manufacture of clothing as well as the distribution and use of textiles. The textile industry is closely aligned with the fashion industry. As a result, companies in this industry face challenges significantly different than other industries such as the automotive, consumer, construction, and among others. India ranks second with 8 percent of the total manufacturing.

Business Processes
#$nu"$)tu&in% P&!)e *
The textile industry is comprised of a diverse, fragmented group of establishments that produce and3or process textile4related products +fiber, yarn, fabric, for further processing into apparel, home furnishings, and industrial goods. Textile establishments receive and prepare fibers5 transform fibers into yarn, thread, or webbing5 convert the yarn into fabric or related products5 and dye and finish these materials at various stages of production. The process of converting raw fibers into finished apparel and non4apparel textile products is complex5 thus, most textile mills speciali'e. 6ittle overlap occurs between knitting and weaving, or among production of manmade, cotton, and wool fabrics. The primary focus is on weaving and knitting operations, with a brief mention of processes used to make carpets. In its broadest sense, the textile industry includes the production of yarn, fabric, and finished goods. There are four production stages, which will have a brief discussion of the fabrication of non4apparel goods* o 7arn formation o 8abric formation o 2et processing o 8abrication +.efer Appendix &,

Textile fibers are converted into yarn by grouping and twisting operations used to bind them together. Although most textile fibers are processed using spinning operations, the processes leading to spinning vary depending on whether the fibers are natural or manmade. Appendix $ shows different steps used to form yarn. 0ome of these steps may be optional depending on the type of yarn and spinning e9uipment used. :atural fibers, known as staple when harvested, include animal and plant fibers, such as cotton and wool. These fibers must go through a series of preparation steps before they can be spun into yarn, including opening, blending, carding, combing, and drafting.

The ma)or methods for fabric manufacture are weaving and knitting. Appendix 3 shows fabric formation processes for flat fabrics, such as sheets and apparel. Weaving yarns, is the most common process used to create fabrics. 2eaving mills classified as broad woven mills consume the largest portion of textile fiber and produce the raw textile material from which most textile products are made. :arrow woven, nonwovens, and rope are also produced primarily for use in industrial applications. :arrow woven include fabrics less than &$ inches in width, and nonwovens include fabrics bonded by mechanical, chemical, or other means. Knitting is the second most fre9uently used method of fabric construction. The popularity of knitting has increased in use due to the increased versatility of techni9ues, the adaptability of manmade &

fibers, and the growth in consumer demand for wrinkle4resistant, stretchable, snug4fitting fabrics. -anufacturers of knit fabrics also consume a si'able amount of textile fibers. ;nit fabrics are generally classified as either weft knit +circular4knit goods, or warp knit +flat knit goods,. Tufting is a process used to make most carpets.

+et P&!)e in% ,Fini (in%2oven and knit fabrics cannot be processed into apparel and other finished goods until the fabrics have passed through several water4intensive wet processing stages. 2et processing enhances the appearance, durability, and serviceability of fabrics by converting undyed and unfinished goods, known as gray or greige goods, into finished consumers< goods. Also collectively known as finishing, wet processing has been broken down into four stages in this section for simplification* fabric preparation, dyeing, printing, and finishing. These stages involve treating gray goods with chemical baths and often re9uire additional washing, rinsing, and drying steps. 0ome of these steps may be optional depending on the style of fabric being manufactured. +.efer Appendix 1,

8inished cloth is fabricated into a variety of apparel and household and industrial products. The simpler of these products, such as bags, sheets, towels, blankets, and draperies, often are produced by the textile mills themselves. Apparel and more complex housewares are usually fabricated by the cutting trades. =efore cutting, fabrics must be carefully laid out. Accuracy in cutting the lay 6

fabric is important since any defects created at this point may be carried through other operations and end up in the final product. 8or simple household and industrial products, sewing is relatively straightforward. The product may then be pressed to flatten the fabric and create crisp edges.

0ales orders indicate that the company that is providing goods or services needs to take action +i.e., to complete the order,. Csually this involves finding the product, packaging it, etc., or setting up a meeting so that services can be rendered. Invoices indicate that the purchaser of goods or services needs to take action. This typically means that the purchaser needs to compensate the company monetarily for the products or services, which can be done by sending the company a check or money order, transferring money from a bank account, or going to the company website and using an online form to pay with a credit card. 0ales orders are triggered by the purchase order of the consumer. This is because a company cannot list the items or services that an individual wants until the individual lets the company know what is desired. Invoices are triggered by the completion of a sale or service. This is because the company cannot charge an individual for products that were never delivered or for a service that never was given. 0ales orders list the products or services that the consumer wants. This can be a single item3service or it can be an extensive list of multiple products3services. These often are listed with an item3service number and a short description. Invoices list the amount of money owed for those products or services. The invoice may reiterate the product and service list to show clearly how the total

owed was obtained, but the main ob)ective is to indicate that money is due. 0ales orders indicate the date the consumerDs re9uest for a product or services was processed. This means that the date listed indicates a time in the past. Invoices indicate the date that money is due for those products or services. This means that the date listed indicates a time in the future. 0ales orders are used to approve, track, and process the completion of an order. 8or example, once the sales order is received by the purchaser, if there are any errors such as missing items3services, incorrect items3services, etc., then the purchaser can contact the company to revise the order and correct it. Invoices are used to communicate that the order is complete. =y this time the goods3services have been delivered or rendered, so the individual cannot make changes.

#urchase order is a written sales contract between buyer and seller detailing the exact merchandise or services to be rendered from a single vendor. It will specify payment terms, delivery dates, item identification, 9uantities, shipping terms and all other obligations and conditions. #urchase orders are generally preprinted, numbered documents generated by the retailerDs financial management system which shows that purchase details have been recorded and payment will be made.
