Meet QSR at MURTEC 2018

MURTEC 2018 is one of the restaurant industry’s hottest technology events of the year. It showcases the latest and greatest in technology specifically for multi-unit operators in restaurant groups and franchises across full-service, fast-casual and quick-service brands. If you’re heading to Vegas this year, be sure to meet with QSR Automations as we will be exhibiting at MURTEC in booth #72. Need some exciting reasons to stop by? Here are 5 compelling reasons to connect with us!

1.) Off-Premise Dining

Off-premise dining is on fire and boosting sales growth for restaurants. As consumers continue to turn to digital ordering partners, operators are looking for ways to execute. We have the tools needed to accomplish a smarter off-premise strategy. Whether you’re looking to implement delivery for your restaurant or simply refine how your restaurant does carry out, you’re going to need the tools for both. Be sure to meet with our team during MURTEC 2018  and learn how the latest product enhancements to the ConnectSmart® Kitchen KDS and the ConnectSmart®Host (Formerly DineTime) guest management system can help your restaurant deliver on its off-premise dining strategy. Some high-level updates that you’ll want to ask about are capacity management, hold-and-fire capabilities, vehicle information, pickup times, and scheduled delivery times in the kitchen, as well as real-time order status updates at the host stand.

2.) Data

Your diners and digital ordering partners need and want real-time data. There’s a misconception that you get that data from your POS, but the truth is that you get real-time data from your kitchen. With the CSK kitchen display system, you can send real-time order status updates to keep your customers informed about their order, helping to enhance the guest experience. Our easy-to-access portal provides more than 100 data points that you can slice and dice to make smarter business decisions. Stop by and let us show you the multitude of data points you can derive from both CSK and ConnectSmart®Host.

3.) Integrations

QSR’s APIs enable restaurants to integrate their software from one system to the next, creating a well-connected and smarter business. CSK integrates to all QSR solutions, including the ConnectSmart®Host, our ConnectSmart® Recipes (Formerly TeamAssist), and our back-office software (ControlPoint), as well as more than 65 POS providers. Regarding your off-premise dining strategy, QSR’s software can integrate with your third-party delivery provider. This will make life easier for your staff because orders from your partner’s app will filter directly to ConnectSmart® Kitchen, which will throttle the tickets based on your restaurant’s in-house capacity. This helps reduce kitchen stress and provides guests with precise quote times. Furthermore, QSR’s ConnectSmart®Host integration with OpenTable allows you to reach a vast consumer network of more than 21M consumers. And lastly, if you’re a delivery solution provider that is looking to integrate, stop by too! We want to connect and see how our solutions combined with your offerings can elevate the industry’s off-premise boom!

4.) Carryout

Off-premise dining doesn’t only refer to delivery. Operators need to appeal to diners that order carryout as well. With the latest updates to our ConnectSmart®Host platform, operators can now establish a take-out or carry-out station. ConnectSmart®Host 6.2 has tabbed views so that your FOH can see order statuses from the carryout station without having to go back-and-forth to the kitchen.

5.) Experience

While at MURTEC 2018, the QSR Automations booth is jam-packed with hospitality & restaurant experts! We’ll have representation from technical support, sales, partnerships and marketing. With a combined total of more than 50 years of experience, we are sure there is someone in our booth that can help answer any questions about industry trends, our technology, and product updates, partnerships and integrations, and more! Stop by, we have lots to talk about and show you. There you have it. Five compelling reasons to swing by our booth at MURTEC 2018 and chat with us. If those reasons can’t get you to our booth, then we might need to have dinner and drinks to discuss what your priorities are and how we can help achieve them! Reach out and let us know. We thrive on helping your operation get smarter. Subscribe to the blog for more interesting restaurant content!
