Systems for Uniform Companies
Uniform businesses generate revenue through recurring rental agreements, direct sales, and professional laundering services. Income is usually lost during manual soil counting, garment replacement tracking, and uncoordinated size fitting appointments.
B2B & Industrial
How the business actually works
Contract Acquisition
Formalizing service level agreements and defining wearer counts for the facility.
Onsite Fitting
Capturing individual employee measurements and preferences to ensure proper garment specifications.
Asset Tagging
Applying barcodes or chips to track each garment through its entire lifecycle.
Route Delivery
Executing weekly drop-offs of clean stock and collection of soiled items.
Garment Maintenance
Identifying items requiring repairs, patches, or replacements during the wash cycle.
Program Auditing
Reviewing inventory levels and wearer changes to adjust monthly billing accordingly.
Where it leaks
Garments frequently go missing between the facility and the laundry center without clear tracking. Manual logs fail to capture which specific employee failed to return their coveralls or smocks.
Incorrect sizes lead to high return rates and costly shipping of replacement items. Relying on paper sizing sheets causes data entry mistakes that frustrate new wearers.
Wearers report missing buttons or tears that go unnoticed by route drivers for weeks. Without a digital repair request system, garment quality deteriorates until the client complains.
Fluctuating headcounts at client sites make manual invoicing prone to overcharging or undercharging. Tracking add-ons like name patches or specialty safety gear manually is unsustainable.
Facility managers struggle to reach account reps for simple changes to the delivery schedule. Bottlenecks in the front office delay responses to urgent requests for new hires.
What LATTICE can build
A dedicated interface where employees can report needed repairs or request size changes directly.
Sends booking links to facility managers to coordinate mass fittings for new contract rollouts.
Triggers notifications to the warehouse when returned soil counts do not match the expected delivery volume.
Logs every torn seam or missing button request and notifies the client when the item is back in rotation.
Automatically adjusts monthly invoices based on current wearer counts and specific garment add-ons.
Notifies the facility contact when the delivery truck is nearby to ensure loading docks are clear.
Captures signatures and timestamps for every bundle dropped off to prevent disputes over missing stock.
Example systems
Tell us what's slowing the business down. LATTICE can build around the way your business operates.
The system allows facility managers to deactivate wearers instantly through a portal. This updates the next delivery manifest and stops billing for those specific garments immediately, preventing charges for staff who have left.
Yes, every garment profile includes fields for specific embellishments like logos, heat seals, or name tapes. The workflow ensures these steps are completed and billed before the item enters the delivery cycle.
The system maintains a full chain of custody for every barcode. You can provide reports showing when the item was last scanned at the laundry, loaded on the truck, and signed for at the facility.
By automating delivery reminders and proof of delivery, your drivers spend less time on paperwork and more time moving product. Real-time notifications ensure the right contact is available to receive the delivery.
The platform supports both recurring rental billing and one-time sales for items like safety boots or specialized PPE. This keeps all client garment history in a single database regardless of the payment model.
