Textile sector

Zero Defect – Zero Effect (ZED) for

Textile sector

Objectives of ZED

• Maturity Model• Compliance to Excellence Model

• Graded Improvements• Vertical and Horizontal

• Enablers and Results

The ‘ZED’ mark

• Zero Defect (Focus on Customer)• Zero nonconformance/ non-compliance• Zero Waste

• Zero Effect (Focus on Society)

• Zero Air Pollution/ Liquid Discharge (ZLD)/ Solid Waste• Zero wastage of natural resources

Applicability

• Applicable for all sectors of manufacturing and service industry

• Focus on MSME/ small businesses.

• Address quality and ecological needs, domestic and overseas customers, society, employees, partners, regulators and investors

Zero Defect Zero Effect

Focus Areas

ZED IMPLEMENTATION

a) Promote “Make in India” campaignb) Drive manufacturing without impacting environmentc) Bring down rejection rate and deliver quality productsd) Creating employment in manufacturinge) Creating a self-sustained ecosystem for ZED

• Target 1 million SMEs over the next 3 -5 years• To be assessed on 61 parameters including technology,

fuel usage, waste disposal system, manpower skilling etc.

• Ecosystem for ZED being developed

Ecosystem for ZED certification

• Training and Awareness for SMEs to be conducted through Chambers/NPC/other partners

• Capacity Building for Lean Manufacturing

• Creating assessor database through Online portal

• Partners – ASQ, Japan Plus, Mckinsey, ANSI etc.

• Advocacy for Public procurement.

Achieving Zero Effect

‘Pollution is, more often than not, mis-utilisation of resources and raw materials’

Keeping this in view, the focus needs to be on:•Enhancing efficiency•Minimizing wastes•Optimizing use of resources

Through –•Use of environment management tools•Intensive auditing processes

Grading ZED Companies

GRADE LEVEL TYPE

Bronze Above 3.0 to Less than 3.5 Commitment to ZED

Silver Above 3.5 to Less than 4.0 ZED company

Gold Above 4.0 to Less than 4.5 Excellence in ZED

Diamond Above 4.5 to 5.0 World Class

Calculation of Spread

Less than 34 parameters No Star

34 – 40 parameters * (Single star)

41 – 46 parameters ** (Two stars)

47 – 52 parameters *** (Three stars)

53 – 58 parameters **** (Four stars)

59 – 61 parameters ***** (Five stars)

Example

Company A – measured on 34 parameters • 20 parameters 5 level : 20 X 5 = 100• 10 parameters 4 level : 10 X 4 = 40• 4 parameters 3 level : 4 X 3 = 12

Total points = 152

LEVEL = Total points/ applicable parameters

= 152 / 34 = 4.47

So Company is graded: GOLD * (one star)

Textile Sector

• “ZED” will be a credible recognition so that International Customers, Foreign Direct Investors and Society may put their confidence in ZED recognized organizations and customers will identify products & services with the “ZED mark”

• Foreign companies, CPSUs and OEMs may source their components/ services from ZED recognized MSMEs

• E-Commerce – flipkart/Snapdeal etc. will reflect ZED rating wherever available for the products they market.

The ZED edge

Make in India: ZED for Textile

• Skill Assessment• Assessment & Certification of skilled artisans (skill

development already undertaken) on the lines of ISO 17024

• Standardization of processes• Initiating Lean Manufacturing and QMS/QTT in

processes of MSMEs• Develop rating parameters of MSMEs as per ZED

model

• Technical Upgradation funding• Any funding scheme can be based on ZED

parameters so that a “targeted funding approach” may be adopted for optimal utilization of funds

• Fiscal Incentives• Such incentives can be based on ZED ratings as well as

scope of improvement of MSMEs. Apart from motivating MSMEs, this will ensure transparent utilization of allocation of funds for incentives.

• Scaling of Technology & Investment• Identification of MSMEs (for scaling of operations &

technology and investment) through current certified ZED rating so that they may improve from their standard (Silver to Gold, Gold to Diamond etc.)

• FTAs• Finally, for any Free Trade Agreement, the importing

Country will look for a product that is certified as per Global Standards. ZED certification will ease this barrier and will instill confidence in the importer.

Make in India: ZED for Textile

Progress made so far

Validation is going on in different SMEs in various sectors

A pilot project has been initiated with funding from DIPP

Online Training vertical is being prepared for capacity building
