What is the objective of preproduction approvals? - Correct Answer- The objective of
preproduction approvals is to prepare all the necessary and correct components for garment
production in a timely manner.

What is approved during the preproduction approval process? - Correct Answer- During the
preproduction approval stage, many samples are exchanged between the sourcer and the
supplier including:

1) Color lab dips- small swatches of different shades of colors that are dyed in a laboratory
setting

2) Pattern strike-offs- small pieces of printed fabrics or materials prepared in a laboratory or
sample-making setting

, 3) Fabric swatches representing the bulk production- samples representing true fabric
construction, weight, hand, and other properties

4) Samples of necessary buttons, shanks, other notions and so on

Upon approval, the suppliers are instructed to produce all of these components.

Approval of these components and raw material production leads to the supplier's production
of preproduction samples (PPSs). PPSs are the samples made with all approved components
by the supplier's sample department. PPSs also represent the supplier's cutting, grading, and
sewing techniques. For both the supplier and sourcer, a PPS is the first time to see what the
actual production looks like in the supplier's production facility, using the supplier's
equipment and production skills. Small changes are still possible during the PPS approval
stage, such as changing the placement of notions or garment pattern alterations. At this stage,
it is almost impossible to change the color or construction of the main fabric as the bulk
fabric already would have been produced. Close communication is extremely important
during the preproduction stage because each approval from the sourcer's team leads to
production of the approved materials. Once they are produced, it is extremely difficult to
change without additional cost, energy consumption, and time.

Once all components are produced and PPSs are approved, the entire garment production
takes place. Throughout the production, sourcers may want to require necessary

What are the four key pieces of information that must be displayed at the point of sale? -
Correct Answer- a) Fiber content
b) Country of origin
c) Identity of the manufacturer or another responsible party
d) Care instruction

Fiber Content - Correct Answer- Since the Textile Fiber Products Identification Act, the FTC
advises that most textile products and wearing apparel must declare fiber content in generic
fiber names, with percentages by weight of each fiber, in descending order of predominance.

The FTC has a 3 percent tolerance of fiber content for multifiber fabrics. This does not apply
to one-fiber products.
