Textile manufacturing
Long routings, variable lots, and a costing model that assumes neither.
The shape of it
A textile route runs through many stages before it becomes a product, and each stage loses something — to waste, to shade variance, to a batch that came out slightly different from the last. Standard costing flattens all of it into an average set some time ago. The result is a margin figure that is broadly right and specifically wrong, on exactly the orders where it matters.
Specifics
What's different here
- Multi-stage routings where yield loss compounds quietly at every step
- Lot-to-lot variability that a single standard cost cannot represent
- Material prices that move faster than the costing model is revisited
- Rework and shade matching that rarely reach the cost of the order
