The challenge
The Power Project Management Board employs both office staff and engineers who work out on project sites, so the uniform had to be formal, hard-wearing and suited to both settings, with measuring and sample fitting completed in one visit to the headquarters.
Requirements
- Formal, hard-wearing uniforms for the office and for project sites alike.
- Each garment cut to the individual's measurements, men and women.
- Samples seen and tried on at the headquarters before anything was confirmed.
- Measuring within working hours, without disrupting the Board's work.
Solution
- A measuring point set up in the Board's meeting room: a tailor with each person, a colleague recording at the table.
- Sample shirts brought in bags and laid out so everyone could try one on before their measurements were confirmed.
- Office staff and engineers in site workwear measured alike, to the same set of measurements.
- The Mon Amie team came to the headquarters with its full kit and worked to the Board's schedule.
Process
The measuring point was set up in the Board's meeting room: a Mon Amie tailor worked with each person while a colleague recorded the figures at the table; men and women came in turn during working hours.
Sample shirts came along in bags and were laid out on the table for everyone to try before measurements were confirmed; engineers still in site workwear were measured on the spot as well.
The team arrived with its full kit in a suitcase, and the visit closed with a photo of the Mon Amie team in front of the Board's headquarters building.
Following Mon Amie's standard six steps: consultation → design & cloth → sample approval → individual measuring → production → delivery & three-year warranty. See the process →
Outcome
- The Mon Amie team completed the measuring in a single visit to the Board's headquarters.
- Every officer and engineer has their own measurements and has tried a sample before tailoring begins.
- A photo of the team in front of the headquarters building closed the visit.
