PR Management Corporation of Newton, Massachusetts, operates thirty Panera Bread franchisees in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. Their POS systems capture a mountain of data every day, and they were looking for a data warehouse system to help them collect, store, and more systematically report on and analyze this data. They found a complete solution with Mirus Enterprise. With the Mirus report writer, they were able to speed up daily and routine analysis, and just as importantly, they were able to spot and respond to problems and opportunities. According to CFO Lori Whelan, “Now we can quickly access, aggregate, and act on data collected from each POS system at all of our locations. In addition we can supplement the POS data with other sources of information including service metrics, payroll and financial data to create one repository of all relevant information from which we can report and run analysis.”
Dave Bennett, CEO of Mirus Restaurant Solutions, adds “We have a lot of experience linking POS data to enterprise systems like General Ledger and Payroll for multi-unit operations. The key to our success, however, was the way the team from PR Restaurants defined their needs and worked with us during the process.” Lori agrees that her team and Mirus have built a successful relationship. “The system is easy to work with, intuitive and flexible. Our Account Manager Alan Panek and his team have given us tremendous support.” PR Management has used the system since the summer of 2011, and is beginning to go beyond the data warehouse features of Enterprise to start taking advantage of the system’s extensive analysis features.
PR Management Corporation operates 30 franchise Panera Bread locations in Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine. For more information on PR Management Corporation, contact Jamie Giller of EZG at (781) 449-3244.
