Starbucks in 2018: The Year of Princi

December 20, 2017

A lot of industries look at Starbucks for inspiration when it comes to implementing technology. For example, this year, Starbucks added a ‘digital order manager’ to their stores. The purpose of digital manager, is to act as a traffic cop for incoming mobile orders, sequencing them for the most efficient execution.   If you have ordered off of Starbuck’s mobile app, you may have experienced this problem a time or two.   Paper tickets are no longer needed because the orders are presented electronically to the staff via touchscreen, a la a kitchen display system.

December 14, 2017

How do restaurants adapt and stay current with the ever-changing market?   The answer: data.   Data is the engine that powers restaurant innovation and will continue to do in 2018 and beyond.
