All 5 Documented Cases
Churn from Tagging-Induced Delivery Errors
Not quantified; risks client loss due to 'mistakes' in manual taggingTagging inaccuracies lead to wrong garments returned to customers, causing frustration, disputes, and lost repeat business. Emphasis on accurate tagging as 'connecting loop between customer and clothes' highlights recurring UX issues. Automation is pushed to make processes 'hassle-free'.
Rework and Compensation from Order Mix-ups
Not quantified; leads to significant rework as manual tagging is 'prone to errors' and 'time-consuming'Human errors in manual garment tagging cause order mix-ups, requiring rework such as re-cleaning, re-pressing, or customer compensation for wrong garments delivered. This increases costs of poor quality in the intake process. Automated RFID and thermal printers are recommended to eliminate these recurring mismatches.
Billing Fraud from Garment Misidentification
Not quantified; human error 'might affect the billing or laundry process in general'Errors or manipulations in manual tagging affect billing accuracy, enabling potential unauthorized claims or shrinkage where garments are lost or swapped. RFID systems are adopted to eliminate human error impacting billing. This creates recurring vulnerability in non-automated workflows.
Idle Time from Manual Tagging Delays
Not quantified; wastes 'productivity for the company and employee'Manual tagging consumes excessive employee time (under 5 minutes per garment), creating bottlenecks at intake and reducing throughput capacity. Automated systems reduce tagging to under 2 seconds, improving efficiency tenfold. This recurring drag limits daily garment processing volume.
