When operators request this audit
A location persistently misses cover targets, labour ratios drift without explanation, or you have acquired a store and need an independent baseline before setting budgets. This is a diagnostic engagement, not a recurring report subscription.
Scope of work
Our analyst spends a half-day on site — typically arriving before lunch prep and staying through the first dinner seating. We observe handoff routines, prep sequencing, and how managers use existing reports (if any).
Back at Namyangju, we reconcile four weeks of POS and inventory data, cross-reference waste logs, and compile findings into a diagnostic binder with an eight-to-twelve page executive summary.
Deliverables
The binder includes annotated daily sales charts, labour heat maps by hour, a waste variance table, and a ranked list of operational adjustments with estimated impact ranges (expressed as covers or labour hours, not revenue promises).
Next step
Contact us with the store address, seating capacity, and the specific concern driving the audit request.
