Abstract—Process flow chart is a useful tools for communicating how process work and also used for designing and documenting complex processes or programs. Bottlenecks and losses in jute mills, which will cause disruption in the operations, can be clearly identified through this technique. It helps to find out the most important and crucial dependencies in the process of production. There are several factors that may affect the production of jute mills so it’s very important to control the range of factors inside the mills to get desirable production rate. Jute is the golden fiber of Bangladesh not only for the rich golden color of the fiber but also metaphorically, for jute’s valuable contribution to the country’s economy. This paper illustrates process flow chart and factors affecting the production of a jute mills in Bangladesh. Akij jute mills is a 100% export oriented Jute yarn Industry catering to the need to carpet manufacturers and other end users of jute yarn all over the world. Process flow chat and factors are analyzed in a production unit of Akij jute mills.
