Remote Inspection: How to Solve the Dilemma of Chain Enterprise Expansion?
The retail industry is a low-profit business. To develop, retail enterprises need to rely on economies of scale. Standardized processes can maximize the impact of economies of scale. Standardized store inspections are the first step in the store management process.
South Korea’s largest coffee chain once set a record of opening 200 stores in China every year. However, due to the brand’s rapid expansion, the review system for franchisees gradually became ineffective. The headquarters did not have a standardized management system, and the corporate infrastructure could not keep up with the store expansion. The result is a large number of store closures.
It can be seen that systematic management of stores is the basis for business expansion. If you want to steadily expand your scale, consolidating the foundation is the primary goal, and standardized store management is this cornerstone!
In the information age, store inspection methods are becoming increasingly intelligent, efficient, and diversified. Highly efficient and low-cost remote store inspections are gradually being widely used, but on-site store inspections have not been completely replaced. Instead, they have become an important method among many store inspection methods. The reason is very simple: on-site communication is more convenient and problem discovery is more intuitive. On-site face-to-face communication and exchanges can further strengthen the connection between front-line stores and headquarters. These are irreplaceable by other store inspection methods.
However, with hundreds of stores, the traditional on-site store inspection method has gradually been exposed: the store inspection cost is high and the efficiency is low; the store inspection report time is slow and the accuracy is low; the headquarters standards are difficult to implement and the assessment and tracking are difficult. The traditional on-site store inspection method cannot keep up with the pace of market and corporate development.
OVOPARK AI store inspection solution is an on-site store inspection software system specially designed for chain enterprises. It aims to quickly solve the problem of standardized management of multiple stores online, which means that it can greatly save system deployment costs and time while maximizing store inspection efficiency. All store inspection processes are closed online, and store inspection traces are retained in the cloud. Supervisors can ensure the authenticity of store problem rectification even if they leave the store. Paperless store inspections save corporate store inspection costs, improve on-site store inspection efficiency, and also ensure the authenticity of supervisors’ store inspections!
In traditional on-site store inspections, supervisors manually count the results and then upload them to management. Faced with a large pile of paper reports, management cannot quickly and intuitively understand the store’s problems, which affects overall decision-making.
AI store inspection system can summarize and analyze store inspection results in real-time, saving supervisors’ time for manual data aggregation, improving data accuracy, and enhancing data analysis dimensions. Managers can check store patrol reports at any time through the mobile or PC back-end. Store scores, execution capabilities, core work, and other rankings are presented in multiple dimensions. The gaps and common problems of different stores are clear at a glance, providing data support for enterprise operation optimization.
