Precedence diagram portrayed actual situation of sewing line and model developed defining workstation in balancing mode to make the supply chain smooth. Outcome showed that ALB greatly effect on overall supply chain. While unbalanced sewing line, delivery date cannot be met, resulting in, leads to air shipment.
