- Real-Time Garment Operator Performance Track (with Skill Metrics) Application - Applied for the Patent
- Built an end-to-end performance tracking platform. The system captures operator cycle times via stopwatch, normalizes them into pieces/hour, and computes efficiency against SMV baselines with real-time color coded feedback and interactive dashboards. Admins can update SMV values instantly, impacting future metrics and ensuring adaptability. The system is a unique product under consideration for patent application.
- Tech Stack: Deployed on AWS, React 18, Tailwind CSS, Fast API (Python 3.10), and MongoDB
- Advanced Line Balancing Application
- Created an application to improve production efficiency that automatically assigned operators to tasks using Greedy & ILP (OR-Tools) algorithms, managed absenteeism adjustments, and provided real-time dashboards. This tool significantly reduced the manual planning effort by 60-70%. Also, it has the integration support of APIs and Excel sheets for the absentee operators and live balancing too.
