In the food service industry, operations managers waste valuable time drafting maintenance requests, coordinating with vendors, and compiling records for health inspections. Most rely on email threads, Google Sheets, and phone calls to track repairs and pest control. These repetitive tasks distract from managing staff and customer experience, leading to frustration and oversight.
