Dental uniform solution: Streamline ordering across 30+ Practices

Dental Care Ireland first contacted us in 2015 and became a customer in 2016. Since then, we have been supporting their growing network with a more efficient, consistent, and organised way to order dental uniforms.

🚧 The challenge: decentralised ordering across 30+ practices

Managing uniforms for over 30 practices is a significant challenge. Each clinic placed orders independently, using spreadsheets 📊. This resulted in:

Inconsistent branding due to a lack of coordination
Time‑consuming administrative work
Operational bottlenecks and delays

Although Dental Care Ireland has a head office, no centralised procurement system existed. One person was tasked with coordinating all orders, while finance teams faced scattered invoices and complicated budget tracking.

🎯 The Happythreads solution: one centralised platform for full control

In partnership with Dental Care Ireland, we implemented a streamlined uniform ordering system designed specifically for multi‑site healthcare operations:

Centralised Ordering Platform – Over 30 practices now order through one efficient interface — eliminating the need for spreadsheets.
Consistent Embroidery Branding – Every scrub is delivered with professional, integrated embroidery.
Preferred Colours in Stock – High‑quality scrubs in Ceil and Navy are always available.
Simplified Finance and Administration – Consolidated invoicing and easier budget management for finance teams.

Our dedicated Happythreads support team continues to work closely with DCI to adjust and improve the process based on feedback.

📈 The results: consistent dental uniforms with reduced administrative effort

Faster, more efficient ordering for every clinic
Significant reduction in administrative and finance workloads
A professional, consistent look across all staff
A scalable system that grows with the organisation

Why it worked💡

This solution worked because it was built around the realities of multi-site healthcare operations. We brought together the right technology, ongoing support, and a deep understanding of uniform logistics to create a streamlined experience from start to finish.

Key success factors included:

A user‑friendly, centralised platform
Integrated embroidery and fulfilment
Ongoing support and flexibility
A long‑term, scalable approach
