Whether hospitality or retail, you need to maximize profit. A retailer needs to understand why seventy people walk by the store, but only three enter, or why buyers are standing in line, only to leave. Restaurants may have had a sudden unexplained increase in food costs. Grocery stores may have had a sudden decrease in margins. LP directors are tasked with answering these concerns rising from unexpected issues like high shrink, increased food costs, margin changes, a theft incident, or a substantial loss that requires a new approach.
Combining this with the market’s new reality-shrinking profits, flat comps, closing locations, or modest growth-LP directors must play a more strategic role for profitability by improving how assets are protected. But it’s more than just asset protection. LP directors need to do more to improve the operations of their locations.
Decrease Costs, Increase Revenues: Disparate System Aren’t Helping You
As an LP director, you have two main objectives: decrease costs and increase revenues. No doubt you have a number of solutions in play to help you achieve these objectives. Amongst these could be video, fire and intrusion security systems, remote monitoring, or traffic-counting analytics, to name a few. Unfortunately, most of these systems and processes are not working together. When your systems don’t talk, they aren’t helping you.

What’s needed is a solution that helps you improve performance by marrying video, analytics, and customizable solutions for smarter locations and superior results.
