You probably know that the only way to achieve high productivity and ensure an exceptional customer experience is to keep your teams happy and motivated.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how can you streamline daily tasks to simplify restaurant management<\/a>, keep your teams motivated and increase their productivity?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article will explain how you can achieve this with technology and, in particular, workforce management systems created especially for hospitality businesses.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Technology to streamline your daily tasks and improve your teams’ productivity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The very nature of our industry implies that employees face an endless number of tasks daily. From learning and development to taking orders, passing them on to the kitchen, serving customers, clearing up tables dealing with payments and even cleaning.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily, technology can alleviate some of these tasks and free up your people’s time to take care of more important things, like delivering the best possible service.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, let’s look at some of the most common and useful tools to improve workforce productivity in your restaurant:
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

QR codes or table ordering apps\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

These are particularly useful for busy bars and restaurants, where waiting time is a problem, and waiters may not be able to get to tables and take orders quick enough.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mobile-friendly table ordering apps or QR codes can solve this problem and make your employees’ lives a lot easier.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your teams will be more relaxed and in control, and instead, will be able to focus on offering your customers a better service<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another advantage of table ordering systems is that customers no longer have to get up to go to the bar and risk losing their table.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Software to ensure compliance and streamline processes\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

It’s not easy having to go through food safety checklists every day to ensure compliance and maintain the brand’s standards. Not to mention that when all of this is done on paper, making changes, and submitting forms and documents for inspection can be extremely complicated.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, there are tools that can save you time, streamline your processes and make your employees’ jobs a lot easier, like Compliance by Mapal<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With our user-friendly app, accessible from any device, your teams can complete checklists quickly and autonomously by following digital operational instructions<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By streamlining and speeding up this process, you can free up your employees’ time to focus on your customers and increase productivity<\/strong>. What’s more, everyone in the organisation can use the same app\u2014 from interns to the CEO.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Takeaway apps\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

While mobile ordering systems were already gaining in popularity, the pandemic has only further accentuated the trend.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implementing technology to enable online ordering in advance improves your customers’ experience and optimises your teams’ time.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning management and onboarding software\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

Productivity is closely linked to learning, motivation, and company culture.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, investing in employee learning is always a safe bet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learning Management Systems (LMS) like Flow Learning by MAPA<\/a>L enable employees to easily access the resources they need from their own devices. By enabling your employees to learn quickly and on the go, you’ll increase team engagement and motivation<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tool also enables you to customise content <\/strong>specifically for employees that may need it or are looking to develop their careers. This also contributes to increasing commitment and retaining talent within your company.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for new team members, the system ensures a smooth onboarding process<\/strong> from day one by enabling communication through the platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also eliminates the need for tedious paperwork<\/strong>. Employees can immediately access contracts, food safety courses, etc., and are guided through their learning experience during the first 90 days. As we’ve seen in previous blogs, this time is crucial for employee retention.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Workforce management software\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We all know that restaurant labour management involves much more than scheduling. Today, having reliable workforce optimisation software to simplify your day-to-day tasks is a must.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only that, but it’s vital to invest in software created by hospitality, for hospitality, like Workforce by Mapal<\/a>, as it:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
