Restaurant checklists are crucial to ensuring your restaurant operates smoothly on a daily basis, but there's an additional element of measurement needed to ensure your restaurant operations are up to par. Using periodic restaurant audits to measure brand standards helps you ensure the delivery of your standards doesn’t slip over time.

Driving team performance across your locations requires a combination of keeping teams on top of daily tasks and being compliant with brand standards. Automating and scheduling daily operational checklists ensures teams focus on things like health and safety, cleanliness, and opening and closing duties on an on-going basis. Measuring these components of your operations more frequently helps teams identify and fix issues before they impact customers.
