Background

Hops N Drops, a restaurant chain with 22 locations across multiple states, faced significant hurdles in managing tip distribution effectively. Their previous method involved manual processes and spreadsheets, leading to inefficiencies and inaccuracies in distributing tips to their staff. This not only created administrative burdens but also posed challenges in ensuring transparency and compliance with legal requirements. Recognizing the need for a more streamlined and automated solution, Hops N Drops sought to improve their tip distribution processes to enhance employee satisfaction and operational efficiency.

Problem

Hops N Drops faced several challenges with their existing tip distribution system. Firstly, the manual nature of the process, relying on spreadsheets, led to inefficiencies and errors in calculating and distributing tips accurately. This manual approach not only consumed valuable time and resources but also resulted in discrepancies and disputes among staff members, impacting the team morale. Moreover, the lack of transparency in the process raised concerns about compliance with legal requirements. This potential lack of compliance could expose the organization to legal risks and liabilities. Recognizing the need for a more robust and automated solution, Hops N Drops sought to address these challenges and optimize their tip distribution processes to better support their staff and streamline operations.
