Who it is for
The White Book is for hospitality leaders, Operations, Housekeeping, Procurement, Finance and Sustainability teams, as well as laundry partners and textile manufacturers. It provides a common framework for discussing textile availability, cost and useful life across hotel-owned, rented and hybrid models.
The argument in five movements
- The textile black box: inherited assumptions, ownership, control and the questions behind stock counts.
- From ownership to control: the textile operating system, handoffs, PAR, loss and shared laundry evidence.
- From tracking to management: RFID identity, reconciliation, imperfect evidence and a management rhythm.
- From evidence to value: model-specific economics, useful life, sustainability and connected replenishment.
- The management discipline: reliable data, AI, governance and the Connected Textile Management framework.
Its relationship to Fides
