CAMPBELL KNITWEAR LIMITED

FINDINGS

 The orders for the year have shown the excess stock of 0.5421% of the total quantity
ordered and consumed.

 The major portion of the excess are

o Sewing thread
o Buttons
o Dyeing chemicals

 The order has an excess because the pieces projected to be produced are more than
ordered because of the wastage in the production process.

 Usually the excess stock can be found in the big orders than the small orders.

 They have known for their quality.

 For Balanced pieces, they got two options.

GOGTE COLLEGE OF COMMERCE Page 36


CAMPBELL KNITWEAR LIMITED

 They will ask the ordered customer to buy the extra pieces also (Customers will
accepts the extra pieces if they satisfied with the quality and product)
 Other wise they have their own outlets where they market their products and sell
to retail customers (One in just side of the Campbell plant and another 2 are in
Bogar ways and Neheru Nagar).

RECOMMENDATIONS

& SUGGESTIONS

As we have seen the above reasons for the Balance occurrence in stocks, the probable
suggestions would be

 The excess ordering should be restricted to some extinct to avoid wastage of raw
material

 It can be achievable by having effective control over the all departments. (because
already they have well organized departments, Experienced workers in their particular
fields)

 The available stock has to be checked before ordering for materials

GOGTE COLLEGE OF COMMERCE Page 37


CAMPBELL KNITWEAR LIMITED

 The yarn should be ordered according to the orders only and not on the forecast of
orders.

CONCLUSION

As a basis of my findings through the observation it was realized that the wastage was more
than the standard waste As explained in the suggestion part, I have arrived at the conclusion
that procurement of the yarn should be by crosschecking the available inventory of yarn at
the stores before ordering yarn to avoid excess of material . As a practice where company is
ordering extra yarn, should be reviewed by past performance of the similar orders and reduce
the extra quantity ordered.
