Strategic Integration of Labor & Inventory Solution and POS Help Restaurants Make Smarter Decisions

HotSchedules®, provider of workforce and back office solutions for the restaurant and retail industries, and NCR Corporation, omni-channel solutions, have announced a strategic integration that adds the power of HotSchedules’ world-class workforce management platforms to the NCR Aloha restaurant point-of-sale (POS) solution. This relationship creates a more powerful solution for restaurant operators by uniting HotSchedules’ labor management and scheduling solutions with NCR’s restaurant POS platform, allowing staffing and inventory management to be influenced by critical sales trend information, through analysis of historical sales trends and forecasting data.

Restaurant chains will enjoy several enhanced benefits from the integration including a heightened level of support from both companies to help operators achieve greater value and solve their problems faster. Further, product and engineering teams at both companies will regularly share product updates with the goal of continued innovation, as well as ensuring their systems work seamlessly together.

HotSchedules joins a growing number of industry leaders who are working to “future-proof” their own solutions and the value they bring to their customers. As part of this new relationship, HotSchedules can leverage NCR’s next generation cloud integration platform.

With this agreement, HotSchedules will become a certified third-party provider of NCR, and NCR will become a part of the HotSchedules’ Global Partner Program. HotSchedules and NCR will also work together on co-marketing opportunities.
