Case Study on RFID Application for Laundry Management
Background & Challenges
Our client was a laundromat operator who actively used laundry tags for each piece of laundry. Their laundry tags from existing vendors did not meet the desired number of wash cycles and delayed timeline between placing new laundry tag orders to receiving them. Given the underperformance of their laundry tags, they had to track some laundry items manually, leading to inefficiencies, delays and difficulties in locating items. Their customers therefore experienced delays and received wrong clothes due to the laundry tag problems.
Our Approach
Analyzed the limitations of existing laundry tags and defined specific requirements for the replacement
Provided tags featured durable materials, secure attachment mechanisms, and unique identifiers for each item, ensuring accuracy and reliability
Constantly followed up with our client to make sure our laundry tags were working properly and check if any improvements were needed
Results
Reduced the costs of laundry tag replacements by >25% since they could be used in more wash cycles
Moreover, our speed of product delivery gave our client the confidence not to stock up too many laundry tags and manage their working capital more effectively
Customer satisfaction scores also rose, and the reduction in manual tracking efforts improved operational efficiency
