Manufacturing excellence in Bangladesh's RMG sector: An operational internship study at Epic Garments Manufacturing Company Limited (EGMCL)
(BRAC University, 2026-07-29) Ahmed, Shahriar; Khakshi, James W.; Mahmud, Md. Rajib Al; BRAC Institute of Governance and Development
This report presents a structured account of a 70-day industrial internship undertaken at Epic Garments Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (EGMCL) in partial fulfilment of the Post Graduate Diploma in Knitwear Industry Management (PGD-KIM) at the BRAC Institute of Governance and Development (BIGD), BRAC University. The placement was designed to bridge the gap between academic learning and professional practice by providing immersive, rotational exposure across the core functional departments of a leading export-oriented apparel manufacturing facility. EGMCL is a sister concern of the Epic Group — a vertically integrated, globally operating apparel manufacturing conglomerate with an established presence across multiple continents. The facility specialises in the manufacture and export of 100% finished woven garments, with a product range encompassing trousers, shorts, dungarees, and utility bottoms, primarily serving premier retail markets across Europe and the United States.⁵ Underpinned by a skilled and structured workforce, a dedicated merchandising operation, and a compliance-driven manufacturing culture, EGMCL has demonstrated consistent growth in order volume and international buyer portfolio depth over successive operational years. The internship provided structured rotational exposure across six core functional departments: Human Resources and Administration, Industrial Engineering, Planning, Store and Inventory, Fabric Technical, Commercial, and Marketing and Merchandising. Within each rotation, the author was assigned specific operational tasks — rather than assuming a purely observational role — enabling direct contribution to live departmental processes and generating a quality of experiential learning that passive observation alone could not have produced. This report serves three interconnected purposes. First, it documents the operational structure, functional responsibilities, and interdepartmental relationships of each department visited during the placement. Second, it provides a candid and reflective account of the specific tasks undertaken, the competencies developed, and the operational insights gained across each rotation. Third, it presents a critical assessment of how the PGD-KIM academic curriculum was applied in practice, alongside evidence-based recommendations for operational improvement identified through direct observation. Taken together, these accounts aim to demonstrate not only what was learned during this placement, but how that learning has substantively advanced the author's professional readiness to contribute meaningfully to Bangladesh's dynamic and evolving ready-made garment industry.

(BRAC University, 2026-07-26) Paul, Hridoy; Antar, Aumi Monnan; BRAC Institute of Governance and Development
The report talks about Avery Dennison's product development process, global strategies, and Operational strengths, such as its focus on innovation, sustainability, and putting the customer first. It also points out problems like ERP delays, tight deadlines, and problems with communication between departments. Based on these observations, suggestions were made, such as automating ERP approvals, using AI tools for lifecycle management, carrying out workshops across departments, and giving interns and new hires structured training. This internship helped me learn more about marketing theories like the Product Life Cycle, the Marketing Mix (4Ps), Integrated Marketing Communication, SWOT Analysis, and Consumer Behavior, and it showed me how these ideas are used in real life. It also helped me improve my professional skills, like being able to do more than one thing at once, being flexible, communicating well, and solving problems. Main findings suggest that future competitiveness relies on stronger digital integration and circular design as Bangladesh approaches LDC graduation. Eventually, the report demonstrates a transition from understanding manufacturing phases to mastering the strategic "physical and digital" solutions that generate the modern apparel value chain.

Report on Avery Dennison Bangladesh
(BRAC University, 2025-11) Mahmud, Abu Sifat; Bhattacharjee, Anindita; BRAC Institute of Governance and Development
The internship journey at Avery Dennison, a famous global producer of TRIMs and accessories, went through the whole product lifecycle stages in five major departments: GPD, Supply Chain, Quality, CS, and Sales. The testimony experience confirmed the strong collaboration among the departments. Important tasks I carried out included assisting GPD with new product costing and setting up items and data in Oracle ERP. Besides, I enabled the supply chain to do demand forecasting and inventory monitoring. I became acquainted with sales-side strategies by contributing to the calculation of competitive and profitable cost structures for Global Tender Participation. In the quality department, I extended my skills through performing Incoming Material Inspections and supporting structured RCA. The internship was a valuable tool that helped me expand my academic knowledge (PGD KIM) and gain insight into real-world industrial practice. I used concepts such as Quality Management systems for RCA and Supply Chain theory for optimizing the Master Production Schedule (MPS). The experience highlighted that the success of the organization depends on very accurate data entry (CS and GPD), good and timely communication (CS and Procurement), and the wise balancing of operational efficiency with market demands (Sales and Planning). The main points learned are the importance of internal cooperation, which, for instance, the CS team should be the central coordination hub, and the understanding that not all businesses are profitable as Sales has to decide which customers will bring the most value in the long run and have a good contribution margin rather than just focusing on volume even when making local market bids. Looking ahead, the thorough evaluation of departmental workflows revealed aspects that could enhance the level of professionalism and organization both locally and at a broader scale. The main emphasis was on enhancing digital integration, for which technologies such as Automated Quality Alerts and a Unified Demand Planning Dashboard were suggested to reduce human error and speed up decision-making. The individual's growth will focus on acquiring more Pictorial Modeling skills and formalizing process certifications (e.g., Lean/Six Sigma) to gradually transition from defect analysis to leadership in systemic, sustained process improvements. To sum up, the internship has been the initial stage of developing the technical, analytical, and professional communication skills that are essential for me to become a future leader who will be efficient and strategically aligned with the global manufacturing supply chain industry.

I prepared this report based on sixty-six days of operational practices at Epyllion Style Ltd., a prominent garment factory in Bangladesh. Within Epyllion Style Ltd., there are numerous departments, and my focus was on operations. Epyllion Style Ltd. is recognized as a leading garment manufacturer in Bangladesh. There are many areas for improvement that should be observed in other garment factories. From the initial stages to the final product, I noticed various techniques that are often not upheld in other factories. Lean methodologies are evident in many aspects that I observed at Epyllion Style Ltd. The latest automation technologies have been implemented at Epyllion Style Ltd., enhancing productivity and reducing the reliance on manual labor. Notably, Epyllion Style Ltd. features a distinctive design studio that offers many valuable lessons. Epyllion Style Ltd. produces the largest volume of products using innovative systems. Each department within operations must adhere to and maintain standards such as OCD, OTT, and PCD. A significant example of increasing productivity can be found in the cutting department's practices at Epyllion Style Ltd. A few years ago, their production was notably lower, but they have now achieved impressive levels by leveraging modern technology and effectively utilizing personnel, machines, and resources. The engineering department at Epyllion Style Ltd. is quite proactive, focusing on reducing production costs and developing new systems that streamline tasks for workers. This creates a safer work environment. The sample section at Epyllion Style Ltd. is equipped with various machines that are not found in other industry sample sections. Therefore, my report primarily emphasizes Garment Operations, and I believe Epyllion Style Ltd. is an excellent place for learning.
