Through the Local Enterprise and Association Development Programme (LEAD) programme, supported by SPRING and IE, TaFf set up a Productivity Development and Design Centre (PDDC) in 2006 to facilitate their industry's capability upgrading plans. To date, PDDC has successfully trained 80 designers in virtual designing and this has helped local apparel manufacturers like SL Global and Ocean Sky to reduce their development cost and turnaround time by 15%.

TaFf had also introduced lean manufacturing system to help companies enhance the productivity of their manufacturing operations by optimising workflow. To date, the association has conducted 18 industrial consultancy projects on the LEAN manufacturing system. One such company is Gimmill which reported a 15-20% increase in productivity after developing an optimal production process.

CONCLUSION
I commend TaFf on your efforts to upgrade the capabilities of the industry and on your leadership in spearheading the Apparel Singapore initiative. Let me once again congratulate TaFt on the launch of the Apparel Singapore.

The Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI)
