Scaling Uniform Programs: How to Outfit Multiple Departments & Locations with Ease

You landed a major healthcare client—now what? Managing uniforms for a large healthcare system with multiple hospitals, clinics, and specialized departments (like ER, OR, and Admin) quickly becomes a logistical nightmare. Inconsistent ordering, different budget rules, and maintaining brand standards across the board are massive pain points for your client.

A generalist company store can't handle this complexity. This is where Uniform Stores by Scrub Authority transforms your offering, allowing you to provide a seamless, scalable solution built specifically for healthcare.

The Multi-Location, Multi-Department Headache

Large healthcare systems need uniforms that vary by department: the OR needs compliance-specific attire, while Admin requires branded polos and lab coats. Managing these diverse requirements—from color codes to durability—while ensuring accurate billing and allocation across geographically dispersed locations is nearly impossible through manual processes or inflexible platforms.

One Platform, Total Control

The key to unlocking large-scale programs is centralized management with decentralized execution. Our platform allows you to configure a single company store for the entire healthcare system while setting up unique rules for every sub-group.

You can set up unique rules for every group:

• Tailored Product Selection: ER staff only sees approved scrubs in approved colors, while the Admin team sees business attire.
• Localized Budget Allocation (Stipend Management): You can set different annual allowances for nursing staff versus administrative staff, and our system manages the automated tracking and renewal.
• Voucher Control: Each department can be given specific, localized permissions to purchase, all within one system.

This model gives your client total control over their brand and budget while offering autonomy and ease of use to their thousands of employees.

Ensuring Brand Consistency Across the Board

A professional image is critical. Our platform ensures every employee adheres to standards, regardless of their location or department:

1. Mandatory Decoration: If embroidery is required, the logo and placement are pre-set, and the order is sent directly to our embroiderer—you don't have to coordinate services.
2. Product Gatekeeping: Employees only see the specific scrub colors and brands approved for their user group, eliminating confusion and errors.

Streamlined Onboarding for New Facilities/Employees

Growth is simple. When your client acquires a new clinic or adds a new department, you simply use the existing centralized platform to create a new user group profile, assign their specific products, and set their stipends. New employees simply go to the existing URL, order their goods, and we handle the direct delivery to their home or office and manage all returns/exchanges via our U.S.-based live support team.
