ERP for textile manufacturing and garment making

The season sets the pace, the workshop follows

Your order book does not fill steadily: it follows seasons that overlap. You launch a collection while the previous one is being repeat-ordered, with short runs, multiple colourways and one size always missing at the moment of despatch.

Part of the work goes out to outworkers — cutting, embroidery, dyeing, finishing. Material leaves the workshop, comes back transformed, and the work in progress becomes invisible in between. That is where metres of fabric are lost, and the margin with them.

The customer, meanwhile, audits. They ask where the yarn came from, which dye bath was used, which workshop sewed the garment. That demand is not met by a binder: it is met at the workstation, at the moment of cutting.

The season sets the pace, the workshop follows

One reference, dozens of variations

A single style exists in several sizes and several colourways. Managed as that many separate items, it inflates the bill of material and makes the material requirement impossible to compute. Managed as one reference with variants, it becomes legible again.

Raw material is often imported, with long lead times and minimum order quantities that do not match the real requirement. Releasing a run without knowing what is genuinely available, reserved, or already out with an outworker means stopping the workshop mid-season.

AVIA ERP carries variants on a single reference, reserves material at release, tracks work in progress sent to subcontractors until it returns, and keeps the lineage from the yarn batch to the shipped piece — enough to answer an audit without reconstructing the history.

The key ERP features for textile manufacturers

Supply managementQuality and monitoring of supply across the diversity of raw materials involved (synthetic and natural fibres, feathers, insulating materials, standards and so on).
Multi-warehouse stock trackingStorage across several warehouses and several stock units (weight, volume, rolls, linear metres and so on), with particular attention paid to storage duration.
Full traceabilityTraceability without gaps: batch tracking, material tracking, and the continuity of information that certifications require.
Variants and configurationsThe technical configurator handles ranges and technical variants: dimensions, colourways, treatments and so on.
Interoperability (EDI)Communicate in every direction through customer and supplier EDI, with connectivity to third-party portals.
