Purchase Order
Purchase Order
A Purchase Order (PO) is a formal document issued by a client to a manufacturer to confirm the purchase of garments, materials, or services. It serves as the official authorization to proceed with production and outlines all critical details such as garment styles, quantities, sizes, colors, fabrics, trims, deadlines, pricing, and other specifications.
At Megaya Bali, a properly issued PO is essential to initiate production with accuracy, traceability, and accountability, ensuring that every garment is made according to the client’s requirements.
Why It’s Important
Purchase Orders are critical for both brands and manufacturers because they:
– Provide a clear, formal instruction for production execution
– Define quantities, specifications, and delivery schedules to prevent miscommunication
– Serve as a legal document outlining obligations, costs, and responsibilities
– Ensure traceability of orders, making it easier to manage multiple styles and production batches
– Enable workflow planning for sourcing, cutting, sewing, finishing, and QC
– Facilitate financial and accounting processes, such as invoicing, deposit requests, and payment reconciliation
– Protect both the client and manufacturer by establishing a written agreement for expectations
Without a properly issued PO, production can be delayed, misaligned, or mismanaged, leading to mistakes, wasted materials, and delivery issues.
How Purchase Orders Work at Megaya Bali
Megaya Bali treats each Purchase Order as the formal starting point of production. Our process ensures every detail is verified and executed accurately.
1. PO Submission
Clients provide a PO detailing styles, quantities, sizes, fabrics, trims, and any additional instructions or tech pack references.
2. Review & Confirmation
The Megaya Bali team reviews the PO to ensure all information is complete, feasible, and aligns with previous approvals (samples, tech packs, or fit notes).
3. Material & Production Planning
Once confirmed, we plan fabric sourcing, cutting, sewing, and finishing workflows according to the PO specifications, ensuring accurate marker making, bundling, and resource allocation.
4. Scheduling & Timeline Alignment
The PO helps us establish production timelines, including sample runs, bulk production, QC checkpoints, finishing, and delivery, aligning with agreed lead times.
5. Production Execution
All garments are produced according to PO details, maintaining size accuracy, quantity distribution, tech pack instructions, and quality standards.
6. Tracking & Reporting
Throughout production, PO details are referenced in tracking, QC checks, and final packing to ensure all items meet specifications before shipment.
