Course details
With the growing trend of buyers asking for value-added services, only factories who can offer design and product development services can compete in the global arena. Garment manufacturers have to develop their own product development team to meet their buyers’ requirements. It is also imperative to create the most relevant collection in the shortest time for the buyers, as lead time gets shorter. Product development is not just about the creation of new samples – it has to meet the criteria and the needs of the buyers. This course gives a general outline of the required modules to cover the various aspect of product development. From understanding the customers to the creation of designs, the course will articulate the various elements of product development and how to meet these challenges in the shortest possible time while giving the buyers the right product at the right time.
This course is taught through lectures, discussion, class activities, field trips and presentations.
