Starting point
What the business actually needs to solve
Team clothing only works when availability and assignment in daily operations receive as much attention as appearance and material.
Chef jackets, trousers, aprons and service clothing face different levels of use. Teams, sizes and responsibilities also change. A total quantity alone therefore does not show which garments are actually missing or how often they must be changed.
Planning
Prepare the details in a structured way
The stock review groups clothing by function and size. Personal labelling makes sense where employees use assigned garments. Pool clothing instead needs clear size ranges and enough reserve for new employees, absence or heavy soiling.
Decision
What is reviewed before a quote
Before a quote, it should be clear whether existing garments need cleaning, damaged items need replacement or new clothing must be supplied. This separation prevents different services from being mixed into one unclear item.
