Leveraging XFormity wealth of experience and success in the restaurant industry, Charter is able to significantly improve enterprise wide visibility of their operating metrics. “XFormity is going to make all the difference in the world with monitoring numbers on a large playing field. I really don’t understand how we survived without it,” said Baedron Fox a Charter Area Coach.
Charter’s VP of Operations, Wayne Ferguson, says – “We moved to XFormity to help us manage multiple brands across a wide geographical area. We needed timely data that helps us control food and labor cost and allows us to pinpoint issues that help us control theft (i.e. cash control). Having one place to pull our sales growth, food cost, labor and customer metrics allows us to spend more time in the stores instead of using our time crunching data. The amount of available data to our above store leaders has been invaluable for them to run their units more effectively.”
XFormity’s hosted enterprise management solutions include business intelligence, balanced scorecard and financial benchmarking toolkits for multi-unit business operations. Serving customers that own and operate over 10,000 locations, XFormity’s solutions provide near real-time exception-based management and access to key performance indicators across organizations ranging from single unit operators to large multi-national restaurant operations.
XFormity’s CEO, Chris Ball, comments – “Charter Foods has proven how valuable our solution is when an organization focuses on the key operating metrics that we report on. We look forward to continuing to develop additional reporting capabilities for Charter and look forward to working with additional Yum! Brands operators in the future.”
