How to Improve the Laundry Service for Facilities

In the bustling laundry and hospitality industry, ensuring effective and accurate garment management is crucial to ensuring customer satisfaction and optimising the use of available resources. However, everyday reality is often fraught with challenges that undermine operational efficiency and service quality. In particular, the problem of laundries receiving bags of unidentified garments from accommodation facilities is an unknown quantity that can compromise the entire process, generating accidental exchanges, loss and wasted energy.

In this article, we will explore common challenges, focusing on the problem of tracking garments, and present innovative solutions in the digital era.


Problem 1: Ineffective Identification of Garments

Current Situation: In the current operating environment of laundries and accommodation facilities, the process of garment identification is an intricate maze. Hospitality facilities send bags of unidentified garments, triggering a procedure that involves manual counting and paper tracking. In addition to being time-consuming and human resource intensive, this approach is particularly prone to errors.

The absence of a clear identification system generates significant inefficiencies in the operational cycle. Manual counting is not only time-consuming, but also increases the risk of human error. In addition, paper-based tracking does not offer the required accuracy, opening the way for potential swapping and loss of garments during processing.

Proposed Solution: The decisive answer to this challenge is the implementation of the MyWosh QR-code system. This cutting-edge technology offers an innovative approach to garment identification, eliminating the need for manual procedures and introducing an unprecedented level of accuracy.

Through the use of QR codes, MyWosh enables efficient identification of garments quickly and accurately. Unidentified bags become a part of a smooth and technologically advanced process. Each garment is uniquely assigned to a QR code, eliminating the risk of errors and enabling accurate tracking along each stage of laundry operations.

MyWosh's QR-code technology not only solves the problem of ineffective garment identification but also paves the way for a new standard of efficiency and accuracy in the laundry and hospitality industry. The operational simplification, elimination of errors and speed introduced by this solution represent a crucial step towards smarter, state-of-the-art management of daily operations.

Problem 2: Exchanges and Losses of Garments

Current Situation: In the operational environment of laundries and accommodation facilities, the frequency of exchanges and loss of garments emerges as a significant critical issue. This situation not only generates dissatisfaction in accommodation facilities, but also undermines the overall reputation of the service offered.

Accidental exchanges and loss of stock present a number of operational challenges. The lack of an effective identification system, combined with error-prone manual procedures, creates a breeding ground for errors during the various processing stages. This results in an increase in the frequency of exchanges between the garments of different customers, with possible negative consequences on the perception of the service by the facilities and their customers.

Proposed Solution: The integration of the MyWosh system emerges as the key to comprehensively addressing this issue. It does not only correct the consequences of exchanges and losses, but aims to prevent them right from the identification phase.

MyWosh, through its QR-code-based identification solution, offers a preventive approach. Each garment, equipped with a unique QR-code, becomes easily traceable along the entire operational path. The introduction of this innovative technology not only eliminates the human errors associated with manual processes, but also provides a solid basis for avoiding accidental exchanges and loss.

The reduction of errors and the consequent prevention of mix-ups and losses contribute significantly to improved customer satisfaction. Accommodation facilities can rely on a more reliable and accurate service, increasing trust in the laundry. In addition, the overall reputation of the service improves as accurate handling of garments becomes a distinctive strength

In conclusion, the integration of the MyWosh system not only tackles the problem of exchanges and garment losses but also raises the laundry and hospitality industry to new standards of reliability and service quality. QR-code technology thus becomes the cornerstone for advanced operational management and for building strong customer relationships.

Problem 3: Waste of Water, Energy and Human Resources

Current Situation: The lack of garment traceability emerges as a critical challenge in the context of laundries and hospitality establishments, with direct repercussions on the consumption of water, energy and human resources. Currently, the inability to wash garments from different customers together creates a significant impact on these fronts.

  • Impact on Water: The absence of garment traceability forces laundries to perform separate washings, increasing the overall amount of water used. This waste of water represents not only a high operational cost but also an environmentally unsustainable practice, contributing to sub-optimal water management.
  • Impact on Energy: The current practice not only wastes water, but also energy. Each separate wash requires the start-up of a single washing machine, wasting the opportunity to make maximum use of the machines' capacity. This results in increased energy costs and a negative impact on the overall efficiency of the operation.
  • Impact on Human Resources: The manual post-wash tracking process requires a considerable expenditure of human resources. Operators have to spend significant time on manual counting and tracking, slowing down overall operations and increasing labour-related operating costs.

Proposed Solution: MyWosh aims to revolutionise the landscape of laundries and hospitality facilities by actively intervening in the different stages of garment processing. The solution is not limited to the identification and grouping of garments by means of QR-codes, but extends to the automatic reassembly of orders and alerts in the event of garments being lost or exchanged.

When an order is accepted, each garment is associated with a unique QR code, thus becoming the key to accurately tracking garments through all subsequent steps. The ability to group garments from different customers not only maximises the efficiency of the washing machines, reducing the total number of washes required, but also introduces the function of automatic reordering.

This innovative function of MyWosh enables the automatic creation of complete orders, further optimising laundry operations. In the case of lost or exchanged garments, the system automatically sends alerts, allowing timely action and minimising potential inconveniences.

The direct impact of this solution goes beyond the reduction of energy and water consumption, also contributing to more efficient management and readiness for unforeseen events. MyWosh is committed to offering not only greater flexibility in the management of wash loads but also a complete solution to ensure the accuracy, sustainability and safety of operations.

In conclusion, MyWosh's approach not only addresses the lack of post-wash traceability but also raises the level of efficiency and security in the laundry industry. The combination of QR-code technology, automatic order re-composition and instant alerts represents a significant leap towards smarter and more resilient operations.
