  • Publication number: 20200334612
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing communication between user interfaces of quick service restaurants are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain sets of values of a service metric that is related to service durations at the quick service restaurants; effectuate a first presentation on the first user interface of a representation of a ranking order of the quick service restaurants based on the obtained values; receive, through entry and/or selection by the first user, a first message intended to be included in a second presentation on the second user interface of a second quick service restaurant, wherein one or both of the content of the first message and/or the timing of the second presentation (that includes the first message) represent a comment on and/or a reaction to the first presentation; transfer the first message to the second user interface; and effectuate the second presentation on the second user interface.

  • Publication number: 20200334611
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a user interface to employees of a quick service restaurant are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain, from a timing system that includes one or both of a timer and/or a sensor, timing information that represents service durations for individual instances of service being provided at the quick service restaurant; obtain event information that defines an event; determine, during event duration, values of the one or more service metrics specified by the event objective information for the quick service restaurant based on the timing information; obtain one or more sets of values for external service metrics; determine a current ranking order of the quick service restaurant and the other quick service restaurants for the event; and effectuate presentation on the user interface of a representation of the determined current ranking order.

  • Publication number: 20200334610
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a user interface to an event administrator for configuring and/or initiating events among quick service restaurants are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive, through entry and/or selection by the event administrator via the user interface, event information that defines an event; initiate the event in accordance with the event information; obtain event-specific results from the individual quick service restaurants participating in the event; and generate notifications based on the obtained event-specific results, wherein the generated notifications are transferred to and presented on user interfaces of the individual quick service restaurants.

  • Publication number: 20200334767
    Abstract: Systems and methods for using information obtained through time-limited events among quick service restaurants are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain sets of values of one or more service metrics that are related to service durations at a first quick service restaurant; analyze the obtained set of values to determine one or more effects that are attributed to holding the first time-limited event; determine a first recommendation for a future time-limited event to be held; and effectuate a first presentation to an event administrator.
