Frequently asked questions
What is a uniform management system?
A uniform management system is a platform that handles everything involved in running a staff uniform program — from setting up a branded catalogue and managing employee allowances, to processing orders, controlling who can order what, and keeping records across multiple sites. Instead of managing uniforms through spreadsheets and emails, everything runs through one system built around how your business actually operates.
What does the Bassi Workwear uniform management platform include?
The BWW platform gives each of your staff members a personal login to a branded ordering portal. From there they can browse your approved catalogue, spend within their allocated allowance, and place orders without needing to contact your HR or admin team. On the management side, you get full visibility over orders, spending, and stock across your entire workforce — whether you have one location or twenty.
How do employee allowances work?
We set up each employee or employee group with a defined allowance — either a dollar value or a set number of items per year. Staff can only order up to their allowance, so there's no risk of over-ordering or unauthorised purchases. Allowances reset on whatever cycle suits your business, and managers can adjust individual allocations at any time.
What size business is the uniform management system suited to?
We work with businesses from around 20 staff up to several hundred. The platform works especially well for companies with multiple teams, sites, or job roles — where different groups need different garments or allowance levels. If you're currently managing uniforms through emails, shared spreadsheets, or paper forms, the system will make an immediate difference.
Can staff from different sites or departments have different catalogues?
Yes. We can set up separate catalogues for different teams, sites, or employment types — so your warehouse team sees hi-vis and safety gear, your office team sees corporate polos and jackets, and your field crew sees something else entirely. Each group only sees what's relevant to them.
How long does it take to get set up?
Setup time depends on the size and complexity of your program, but most clients are up and running within 2–4 weeks. That includes garment selection, branding sign-off, catalogue setup, employee onboarding, and a test run before we go live. We manage the whole process — you don't need to be technical to get started.
Do you handle the garment supply as well, or just the platform?
Both. We're a complete uniform solution — we source and supply the garments, apply your branding (embroidery, heat transfer, or screen print), build your catalogue, and run the ordering platform. You deal with one supplier for everything, not three or four.
What happens when a new employee joins?
Adding a new staff member takes minutes. We set them up with a login, assign them to the right catalogue and allowance group, and they can place their first order straight away. When someone leaves, their account is deactivated and any unused allowance is returned to the pool.
