(PR.co.nz) Auckland, NZ: Denny’s Restaurant, a premier family restaurant with five branches in Auckland, announced that they have successfully completed a trial of using Smart Monitoring Technology for ensuring the quality of refrigerated food storage. The restaurant can now monitor the temperature of freezers and cool rooms at all of its restaurants remotely, anytime without needing to visit the location. It also automatically alerts them in case of any changes in temperature so that they can react quickly before any items are affected. Furthermore, the system now provides them a platform to look at trends to detect issues early, reduce waste and identify areas of saving such as power usage and more than 30 other aspects.”
Denny’s Restaurant Regional Manager, NZ, Anirudh Krishna said, “We have a strong focus on offering quality food to our customers. This initiative is yet another demonstration of our commitment to using technology to control and manage proactively all aspects that affect the quality of food. Using Smart Monitoring technology, we have the information to take action and prevent issues that can affect the quality of food and cause food wastage. It also alerts our refrigeration system partner KoolMakers so they can act on it in time. This capability reduces our management overhead, allowing us to focus more on our core business of providing great food to our customers, rather than worrying about the systems.”
The Smart Monitoring Technology is provided by KoolMakers, a leading refrigeration and air conditioning company in Auckland with technology partnership with Senapps Technologies, a Smart Monitoring technology company.
KoolMakers Director Deon Bose said, “Maintaining the right temperature is critical for the food industry to maintain a high quality. Any fluctuations, drop or issue with small components such as thermostat can affect the contents. With Smart Monitoring technology, we can now accurately measure and view what is happening at any time. This capability reduces our time to react to issues. More importantly, we can now see the trend over time, helps us to detect issues early and also create maintenance plans to avoid issues altogether. “
Deon explains, “We are always on the look-out for innovations that help our customers manage their environment better and take the lead to bring these innovations to the market. The technology utilises the latest wireless sensors and analytics to provide all information on one screen. The service is fully cloud-based which means that Denny’s do not need any IT servers or computers to run the system. Being wireless it is easy to install and has minimal changes to the site installations.”
Denny’s will now roll out the technology to all five restaurants in Auckland. With Smart Monitoring technology, Denny’s Restaurant has now taken the lead in New Zealand food industry in using the new technology platform. The platform will help Denny’s Restaurant to manage more areas of the restaurant in the future such as environment quality, occupancy, to energy efficiency.
