Abstract

Quality control plays a pivotal role within the Indian textile sector, guaranteeing the alignment of products with customer expectations and industry benchmarks. This study delves into the progression of design models for quality control within the Indian textile industry, with the aim of fostering more eco-conscious manufacturing processes. It scrutinizes the constraints associated with initial quality control methods, underscoring the necessity for more all-encompassing and forward-looking models. The investigation assesses an array of pre-existing quality control frameworks, encompassing the likes of International Quality Standards Models, Structured Quality Control Models, Technological Quality Control Models, and Integrated Quality Control Models. Each model is subject to a comprehensive evaluation based on its strengths, constraints, and applicability in the context of the Indian textile industry. Informed by this analysis, the research advocates for the fusion of Lean, Six Sigma, and Industry 4.0 (LSS 4.0) as a potent quality control paradigm for the Indian textile domain. The LSS 4.0 framework harnesses Lean and Six Sigma principles to optimize processes and curtail defects, while seamlessly incorporating Industry 4.0 innovations for real-time monitoring, data analysis, and automation. While acknowledging the sector's limitations and hurdles like resource scarcity and cultural resistance to change, the study underscores the potential gains of adopting the LSS 4.0 model. In essence, the research lays out a roadmap for industry stakeholders, delineating essential steps such as investing in technology, training, and transforming organizational culture to embrace and implement this integrated model. Succinctly put, the research underscores the significance of advancing quality control models within the Indian textile industry to meet evolving market requisites. The proposed LSS 4.0 model introduces a holistic and technologically sophisticated approach to quality control, fostering sustainable expansion, heightened product quality, and enhanced competitiveness within the industry.
