Managing Restaurants in a Remote Work Environment

9/22/2020

0 Comments

 
This year has stood the world on its side.  We're dealing with problems like Daniel-San in the Karate Kid-- Wax On, Wax Off, Paint Fence, Side-Side, right?  We're using the tools that we used to use from time to time as our mainstays, tools like Teams, Zoom, Office365 and Google Hangouts.  This has forced people to learn remote work, which has been a challenge for some.  At ITWERCS, we started from day one (2006) building a system that was designed to be managed remotely.  Our Microsoft Run-Once client keeps data cached at your local computer, while harnessing the power of the Azure cloud to manage locations across the country, from anywhere.  We've been doing this since launch and found that over time the ability to manage remotely dramatically improves your quality of life.  Today's expectations of everyone seem to be that "always on, always listening" state, which is unsustainable in the long run without tools like ITWERCS to manage your enterprise.  Contact Us to talk about how we can enable a better quality of life for you and your team.

Using Checklists to Improve Operations

9/22/2020

0 Comments

 

There are a lot of famous and funny quotes about checklists, my favorite:  "Even Han Solo and Chewbacca Used a Checklist."
There's no doubt that in Operations the key to a successful shift is the utilization of concise and critical checklists.  Checking temperatures of hot and cold storage, along with tasting of prep items for quality has long been the standard for Operators.  The onset of Covid-19 has brought forth several more sanitation and health checkpoints, making an Operator's opening tasks even more critical.  We spent some time this Spring engineering a completed checklist engine.  Whether you have a recurring shift checklist or an ad-hoc checklist, such as a slip and fall, we have you covered.  Build your checklists, schedule them for your critical periods, and track each and every step from the Enterprise level.  MultiUnit operators can get real-time status on coolers, cooktops, HVAC, plumbing and more, reported up on each checklist step.  To learn more abou how ITWERCS powers Operations, Contact Us for a demo today!

Using Reservations and Waitlisting to Streamline Service

9/21/2020

0 Comments

 
The past months have reshaped the dining experience as well as the pre-dining experience.  Different local rules and laws have dictated what percentage of our restaurants we can open, how far we can space them, how many people we can have in our buildings, and more.  All of which have forced operators to rethink how they plan and manage these resources.  Sure, there are third-party solutions that can be quickly enabled to manage waitlists and reservations.  You simply pay a fee per month or per customers and, wait, hold on, I have to pay more??  Revenue is already restricted.  Costs of Goods have spiked (thank goodness they are starting to come back down) and we spent months closed.  Operators don't have any of these fees budgeted, but its a necessity.  We have great news.  Waitlisting and Reservations are built into the ITWERCS Hospitality Platform and can be deployed within an hour or two, complete with a balanced server seating feature to show you who should get the next table in order to maximize service.  There are handy web widgets that you can embed into your web pages that connect your guests with ITWERCS in real time.  Click Here for a free demo and to talk about how ITWERCS can help you.

Five "Keepers" for MultiUnit Operators

10/3/2019

0 Comments

 
Picture
  1. Keep security in the forefront of your thinking.  It will save you money and headaches later.  As PCI evolves, the credit card companies and banks will continue to transfer liabilities to merchants when they can.  Don’t even talk to a POS vendor who is not utilizing EMV and Point to Point Encryption.
  2. Keep your mind on your processing.  Lots of POS companies will take your credit card processing money if you let them.  Watch out for “free” or discounted hardware to get you into a long term contract.  There are financing options that will cost you much, much less in the long run.
  3. Keep your hearts and minds open.  Change is something that very few people process well.  Prepare your staff and talk often about the positive points to upgrading your technology.
  4. Keep reasonable expectations.  Changing your technology is not like flipping a light switch on success.  Phase in projects such as scheduling and inventory over time. 
  5. Keep your Long Term plan in mind.  Look closely at your vendor’s vision of Hospitality Software.  Buzzwords like Cloud, Business Intelligence, Artificial Intelligence and others are catchy, but how the vendor is doing to accomplish these technology goals is critical.
ITWERCS, now a part of Jonas Software, is a leading provider of hybrid cloud Point of Sale.  We've been providing hybrid cloud hospitality on the Microsoft Cloud since 2009, and continue to produce cutting edge tools for today’s hospitality operators.  Talk to us soon about how we can help you transform your company and grow.

Lower Cost of Entry and More Profit Generation

A tip for Restaurant Executives and Operators:  When customers utilize their current hardware to implement ITWERCS, their costs of entry are minimized, giving them access to world-class cloud Point of Sale without the hassle and costs of replacing entire systems.  We recently converted a customer in Chicago from their legacy software, running on reliable HP hardware over from a legacy software to our platform.  In a matter of an hour, they were up and running on their existing terminals, printers and cash drawers.  They migrated from a non-EMV, non-cloud solution to ITWERCS with ease, and now are fully utilizing our POS, Scheduling and other modules under a simple flat monthly fee.  What could be easier?
