Factory Improvement Toolset (FIT)

A sustainable, scalable approach to factory upgrading, FIT supports garment manufacturers in global supply chains. Workers and managers learn to improve productivity, competitiveness and working conditions by upgrading production systems and factory practices.

Responding to the needs of factories

FIT focuses on areas of production improvement and actions to be taken specific to each participating factory. It can be utilized as stand-alone learning tools or to complement other training programmes.

Built on internationally recognized approaches

FIT builds on internationally recognized approaches such as lean manufacturing and 5S. The toolset consists of a wide range of modules divided into three categories: Production, support systems and working conditions. FIT enables businesses to reach more personnel than a conventional training, whilst minimizing interference to production realities. The easy-to-use methodology makes it possible to rapidly scale the implementation to reach a large cohort of trainees across multiple production facilities.
