The Project Management Challenge in Franchising<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

One of the most popular \u2013 and well-used \u2013 capabilities of the FranConnect Platform is our Opener module. It is a workflow-based solution that helps bring order to the chaos of the unit opening process, ultimately speeding up time to revenue. Recently, many of our customers have been asking us to help them tackle complex projects beyond just the Opening stage of the franchise lifecycle. So\u2026 we\u2019ve quietly been working on a solution, which we\u2019re excited to introduce now!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

First and foremost<\/span>, some background on why this matters. Anyone who has ever tackled complex franchise lifecycle events or corporate initiatives knows how hard it is to do so in an organized, consistent, and well-coordinated way.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span> Having<\/span> visibility<\/span><\/span> into every step of the process across multiple stakeholders is paramount<\/span>. But also, effective communication<\/span> is critical, so that everyone involved <\/span>knows their responsibilities and<\/span> the impact of their contributions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Introducing FranConnect Projects<\/h2>\n

FranConnect <\/span>Projects<\/span> is the newest component of our Operate module, available to customers now! E<\/span>mbedded inside your system of record and built specifically for franchising, Projects<\/span> provides corporate users and franchisees transparency and consistency for every step of the project timeline.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Deliver a project in an organized, consistent, and well-coordinated way within your franchise system by allowing unit-level individuals to collaborate with various departments, while additionally supporting them during their events. Whether the point of convergence is a company-wide <\/span>initiative<\/span><\/span> (rebranding or product launch) and\/or a need to manage a new process deployment (POS system), <\/span>Projects<\/span> allow you to improve stakeholder collaboration <\/span>while sharing best practices and critical knowledge.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
