When many things have evolved over time and it is no longer entirely clear where the greatest leverage lies.

Goal

To gain a clear picture of what works well, where friction arises, and which issues are critical for future development.

• Examine the business model and offerings
• Analyze processes and structures
• Assess costs, revenue, and capacity utilization
• Identify internal and external challenges
• Prioritize opportunities based on impact and effort

Format

• Analysis, workshop, or ongoing project

Result

A clear assessment of the current situation and a solid foundation for future decisions.

When it’s clear that something needs to change—but it’s not yet clear in which direction.

Goal

To develop a coherent concept based on challenges and opportunities that fits the business, existing resources, and guests.

This may involve, for example:

• Positioning and offerings
• Operational processes
• Pricing and service structure
• Digitalization
• Personnel and organization
• Customer Engagement and Communication
• New Services or Business Models

Result

A clear strategy with well-defined priorities and concrete next steps—rather than a collection of individual measures.

When everyday life has become unnecessarily complicated.

Goal

To design workflows so that they are easier to understand, more efficient, and less prone to errors.

• Question existing processes
• Reduce unnecessary steps
• Clarify responsibilities
• Avoid media breaks and duplicate data entry
• Simplify or automate recurring tasks in a meaningful way

Result

Less friction in day-to-day operations and more time for guests, employees, and the further development of the business.

Many companies have a wealth of data—but not always the information that is actually needed to make decisions.

Objective

To consolidate the most important key metrics in a clear and understandable way and place them in a business context.

For example:

• Revenue and Profit
• Personnel costs
• Cost of Goods Sold
• Contribution margins
• Best-sellers and slow-moving items
• Utilization by Day and Time of Day
• Purchasing and Inventory
• Food Waste

This doesn’t necessarily mean a new system has to be created. Often, it’s enough to better organize and make existing information more accessible.

Result

Greater transparency and a better foundation for operational and strategic decisions.

When it only becomes clear in hindsight where goods, time, or profit margins were lost.

Goal

To align purchasing and the flow of goods more closely with actual needs and demand.

• Analyze existing processes
• Make inventory and goods movements more transparent
• Better align purchasing with consumption
• Compare suppliers and purchasing terms
• Identify the causes of food waste

Result

Fewer losses, improved planning, and a more conscious use of resources.

The shortage of skilled workers is not just a recruitment problem.

Positioning, working conditions, processes, and the application process also influence whether a company can attract and retain suitable employees.

Objective

To jointly examine the various touchpoints between the company and potential employees.

• Refine employer branding
• Review job postings and application processes
• Make job postings more visible on the company’s own website
• Lay the technical groundwork for Google for Jobs
• Integrate social media and digital channels effectively
• Simplify internal recruitment processes

Result

A stronger employer brand and a clearer, more efficient path from job posting to application.

New technology is not an end in itself.

Digital tools, automation, or AI can be useful—but they don’t have to be.

The starting point is always the business question:

What needs to work better?

Only then do we assess whether organizational changes are sufficient or whether technology can make a meaningful contribution.

This could involve a minor adjustment to an existing system, better integration of existing data, or—where there is a clear benefit—the implementation of new technologies.

Result

Solutions that fit the business, rather than technology for technology’s sake.
