Our team, through years of experience, know where to find cost saving opportunities as well as areas that you cannot take shortcuts. The groundwork that you set in the beginning will define the success or failures in the years to come, which is why we accentuate the necessity to make the right decisions upfront.

Operational Management

We will work with you on a recurring or a one-time basis to identify the best ways to streamline your operations and maximize profitability. Our experts can work onsite to provide actionable changes and execute on those recommendations. Services include:

  • Performing FOH and BOH assessments

  • Identifying best- and worst-selling dishes

  • Calculating per-dish profit margin

The process plays out differently for every single restaurant, but the goal is the same: provide defensibility to your business and increase profitability so you can keep the lights on, keep your staff employed, and keep your customers coming back for more.
