Managing operational costs is essential for operating a profitable QSR drive-thru.

To lower your operating costs, practice these five tips:

1.    Keep your drive-thru parts well maintained. Regular cleaning and maintenance reduce repair costs and extends the life of your equipment.

2.    Get an equipment maintenance agreement (EMA). This provides unlimited drive-thru parts repairs for one monthly fee.

3.    Use technology to reduce order mistakes. High-def audio headsets and order confirmation screens will boost your order accuracy percentage and reduce food waste.

4.    Schedule more efficiently. Using scheduling software can save time and money.

5.    Reduce employee turnover. Improving retention reduces the time and costs involved in interviewing and hiring new crewmembers.
