Abstract
Application of ICT on the structure, assumptions, operation process and decision making in garments industry results in huge benefits. This paper investigates the existing information about the ICT infrastructure of RMG sector of Bangladesh. It broadly encompasses three main objectives. The preliminary objective was to discover the general and advanced ICT applications which are being used currently in RMG sector of Bangladesh. The second objective was to investigate about the existing and probable barriers in using the ICT infrastructure and the third objective of this study was to evaluate the values obtained by using the ICT infrastructure model in RMG sectors of Bangladesh. A robust survey procedure was carried out to extract the information regarding this sector. An ICT infrastructure model is being proposed after analyzing the surveyed information. This paper reveals some crucial information about the three objectives including growing level of emphasis on the use of general and advanced ICT applications in RMG sectors, disclosure of several types of barriers for using the ICT infrastructure. Finally it realized the obtained values by using this infrastructure. This paper elucidates the positive impression for the use of proposed ICT infrastructure and advanced ICT applications.

Summary
Information and communication technology (ICT) is a very well-known term in the recent perspective. Bangladesh is a south Asian country with large number of populations compared with the other countries belonging to the same economic status. The current economic status of this south Asian country is considered as a developing country which economy is progressing continuously. The current economic state of this developing country will be changed by the near future with the increasing use of ICT in production sector. The continuous improvement of all these sectors and industries are largely dependent on the increasing use of ICT applications which gives them more efficient and potential form of operations. In the year 1960, Bangladesh has firstly started the realistic use of information technology for the purpose of Nuclear Research. RMG sectors in Bangladesh are not lagging behind in the use of ICT technology. Information and communication technology has become an integral part of the garments Industry.
