How Multi-Unit Franchisees Can Lift Profit Margins with Better Store-Level Execution

Margins in hospitality are tight. And when you’re running multiple locations, small gaps in execution quickly scale into costly issues. The fastest way to improve profitability isn’t always about running more promotions or increasing foot traffic; it’s about getting better at the basics at the store level.

Store-Level Execution: The Margin Most Operators Miss

There is often too much focus on top-line growth, larger checks, more campaigns, and new technology. But your bottom line is built on consistent execution:

• Were opening and closing checks done?
• Are teams following SOPs and using them?
• Have your staff been trained properly?
• Is labor and inventory running to plan?

Getting these things right across every shift and every site has an impact on profitability. One missed step can compound and cause long-term issues for your business. 

Operandio replaces the patchwork of spreadsheets, apps, and printed checklists with a single system designed for multi-site operations. It provides your teams with everything they need to execute effectively at every stage of your operations.

The Operandio system is broken into six key modules:

• Operations Execution
• Food Safety Compliance
• Learning Management
• SOPs, Knowledge & Documentation
• Asset Management
• Health & Safety

Operandio’s modules are used to enhance every aspect of a business, and they have a real-world impact on operational execution.

1. Reduce Waste

Operandio’s digital prep and inventory tools improve consistency across locations. Automated temp checks and Bluetooth thermometers catch food safety issues before they become costly.

2. Control Labor

With shift-based task tracking and mobile oversight, everyone is aware of their responsibilities at every step. Area managers get live visibility into what’s happening across every location.

3. Train Your Staff to a High Standard

Having processes in place to execute every task in the business is one thing, but if your staff aren’t trained in them, then you are fighting a losing battle. Operandio’s mobile-first Learning Management System (LMS) gets everyone trained to the same level on systems used company-wide on a day-to-day basis. The platform allows each individual to train in a way that is most efficient and comfortable to them. 

4. Lift the Guest Experience

By standardizing everything in Operandio you can keep a consistent standard for everything in your business, meaning that your staff can execute to the highest standard. Customers will notice these standards, and it will lead to a much higher level of satisfaction, no matter who your customer is. 

5. Give Managers Time Back

With real-time dashboards and franchise audit tools, field leaders can support stores strategically, rather than chasing checklists or paperwork. This gives them back time to make the decisions that really impact the business and stay on top of the execution across every site.
