Challenges:
Vintage Vibes Restaurant faced multiple operational challenges. They struggled with systematic management of multiple assets, tracking assets, their handover and movements, issues leading to unexpected breakdowns and repair costs.
If we take a small detour from assets to maintenance, general maintenance scheduling was a bit disorganized, resulting in frequent failures or non-performing events, impacting profitability.
Above that, Maintaining a clean, safe facility all the time is always challenging, risking the reputation of any restaurant business. Critical issues often didn’t reach the right personnel promptly, causing delays in resolution. They needed a comprehensive solution to streamline asset and maintenance management and ensure a seamless customer experience.
If we point out this specifically to address clearly, we can say:
- Absence of systematize tracking of various assets, leading to downtime and breakdowns.
- Ineffective maintenance scheduling causing equipment failures and disruptions.
