Cleaning unit for Table Tracker location system
A cleaning (busser) unit can be used so that staff are aware that the given table is currently being cleaned (bussed); this unit is similar to a table tracker unit in looks and size but programmed for this special use; staff will know the exact state of use or otherwise regarding a specific table. The table state is published on the table tracker screen so there can be no confusion about table state at any given time.
This unit is invaluable when you have many customers at busy times and lots of tables in operation; it enables the tracker system to show the absolute best representation of the true position of tables at any given time by showing tables that are being cleaned on the tracker screen. And of course there is the advantage that data is being collected that can be allocated to table cleaning in the reporting.
This is a robust unit and designed to take the knocks and bumps in a very busy working area in a fast casual restaurant or similar operation. The on-screen status of a table being bussed becomes very critical to firstly keep records of when tables are cleaned especially in these recent days of viruses and microbes, but also the communication to other staff about specific tables and their 'state' is extremely useful.
In a site with many tables sometimes cleaning tables might not be the highest priority of some companies, but it remains very important to maintain a high level of guest experience, no one wants unclean tables and that might be a detrimental reflection of the restaurant or fast casual enterprise. Dirty tables can cause customers to leave.
Clean tables has a direct effect on customer experience within your restaurant so its critical to ensure tables are always kept clean and ready for the next customer.
