Mrs. Winner’s Chooses RTI’s Back Office Software for 93 Restaurants

(Marietta, GA) Atlanta-based Famous Recipe Company Operations has chosen RTIconnect software for 93 of its Mrs. Winner’s locations. RTIconnect, an Internet-enabled software system, provides food and labor cost controls and cash reporting to restaurant operations.

With the addition of the Mrs. Winner’s restaurants, RTIconnect is now used by 1,600 restaurants in the United States. Other restaurant concepts currently using RTIconnect include Arby’s, Bear Rock Café, Burger King, Camille’s Sidewalk Café, Carl’s Jr., Cinnabon, and Wendy’s.

RTIconnect is offered as either a hosted subscription service, or as a licensed software application for operators who want to store data on their own server. Famous Recipe Company Operations has asked RTI to host its data.

Food, Labor, Cash

In its Food application, RTIconnect uses sales projections, sales history, and past product mix to calculate for managers how much product to prep, how much to order, and how much labor to allocate for food preparation. It also maintains menu items and recipes.

Its Labor application enables managers to create efficient crew and management schedules based on sales projections and parameters that define when jobs should be performed and how many employees are needed. This approach enables managers to create schedules that include very little excess labor. A side benefit is a dramatic reduction of time a restaurant manager spends each week tediously preparing employee schedules.

The Cash/Till Management tools in RTIconnect help restaurant management track and account for total cash, gift certificates, paid-ins, paid-outs, credit card receipts, and other tender types in the restaurant at any point in time during a business day.

.NET Technology

Developed by Restaurant Technology, Inc. (RTI), RTIconnect was built using Microsoft’s(R) .NET v2.0 framework for Smart Client software. This enables the software to run like a Windows program at the restaurant, making it easy for managers to learn and use, while in the background it takes full advantage of the Internet to move data effortlessly between the restaurant or corporate office and RTI’s Data Center. The .NET technology also offers improved reliability, stronger security, and faster performance than conventional software applications.
