Why is it that restaurants have been so slow in adopting analytics

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

the restaurant industry has been slow to adopt data analytic. Rising food and labor costs are also forcing restaurants to become more efficient.Technology must and is playing a key role to optimize the bottom line and provide a great guest experience

Explanation:

25% of those restaurants surveyed indicated they plan to spend more money and time on technology in 2016. While 4 out of 5 of these same participants also admitted that technology makes them better by: increasing sales, improved productivity, and provides a competitive advantage.

Based on the survey responses mentioned above, there seems to be a high level awareness that technology and best practices will bring real value to a restaurant’s operations; but then perhaps a gap that leads to inaction when it comes to purchasing and implementing technology. When it comes to technology solutions designed to improve your pre-employment, onboarding, tax credit screening, I-9, and unemployment management process, Equifax can serve as a resource by providing best practices, resources, and solutions to help solve for your challenges.
