Big Boy Restaurants International Names MICROS e7 Preferred Point-of-Sale Solution to Help Revitalize the Chain |
|
MICROS Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MCRS) , a leading provider of information technology solutions to the hospitality and retail industries, is pleased to announce that Big Boy Restaurants International LLC has selected MICROS, along with the MICROS e7 solution, as a preferred point-of-sale (POS) vendor for its 165 stores in the U.S. MICROS will initially target franchise locations in the US that need to upgrade their legacy system environment to comply with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard. |
A Michigan-based company, Big Boy Restaurants was recently recognized by Nation's Restaurant News with the "Hot! Again" award for its steady, continued growth and rebranding efforts. This success can be partly attributed to Big Boy Restaurants' revitalization plan to propel the chain with increased cost controls, tighter product sales tracking, and improved customer service. To help implement the plan, Big Boy Restaurants partnered with MICROS to provide a solution that would meet its POS technology requirements. With its intuitive, affordable pricing, easy installation, fast training, flexible administration, and enterprise functionality, the MICROS e7 is an ideal fit for Big Boy Restaurants.
"From a back office perspective, managing procedures, reports, and menu changes can be done on-the-fly using the MICROS e7 POS touch screen with virtually no training," stated Paul Black, Chief Financial Officer for Big Boy Restaurants International LLC. "As we are incorporating menu items and sales information with our inventory and accounting applications, MICROS's open platform and industry standard design offers Big Boy Restaurants a great advantage."
"Selecting the highly reliable, affordable, and flexible MICROS e7 POS solution supports our revitalization efforts by reducing complexity and providing uninterrupted, efficient customer service focus," stated Tony Michaels, Chief Executive Officer for Big Boy Restaurants International LLC. "MICROS offers unparalleled program and integration support and we appreciate its solid presence in the restaurant industry."
"We are proud to partner with Big Boy Restaurants," stated Thomas Moran, Vice President, Restaurant Sales and Strategies for MICROS Systems Inc. "Well-matched with Big Boy Restaurants' casual dining concept and limited functionality requirements, MICROS e7 POS enables the chain to manage restaurant operations, both efficiently and economically. We are fully committed to supporting Big Boy Restaurants' revitalization goals and continued growth."
