Information – It’s critical to gather and assess information on your dining services. Establishing a baseline of knowledge through a variety of interactive methods is critical to understanding customers’ perception of your dining services. Regular monitoring of customer satisfaction energizes creative solutions and provides advance notice of where problems may occur.
Execution – Establish standards of excellence and monitor these to achieve customer loyalty. Consistency of service, quality and responsiveness need to get a little bit better every day. This is the process of continuous improvement.
Measurement – Metrics and monitoring of the Key Performance Indicators (KPI) of quality, customer satisfaction, and financial performance quantify day-to-day activities. We place these into a scorecard dashboard format for easy understanding and usability by the institution’s leadership and workers.
