Envysion integrates with business intelligence platforms to provide “eyes behind your data”

Envysion, the authority in managed video and loss prevention solutions for restaurants, announced that they have completed integrations with the top three providers of business intelligence, business process automation and environmental data within YUM! Brands restaurants: Delaget, Parapet Overseer and OneDataSource.

For generations of restaurant owners and operators, concern that “you can’t catch what you can’t see”– never mind addressing it– forced them to piece together various solutions to stop theft, verify incidents, and improve operations, all while attempting to protect margins to boost their businesses. Against the backdrop of a tight labor market and the threat of employee churn, unverified incidents often go under the radar and slowly erode the profitability and livelihood of venerable restaurant franchises.

After years of providing managed video and loss prevention solutions, including video, exception reports and audit programs, Envysion has announced partnerships with each of the YUM!’s principal business intelligence platforms to deliver an improved customer experience. Not only does the integration allow customers to stay within their workflow and manage processes across multiple platforms with ease, it gives them unprecedented insights and transparency for loss prevention, business intelligence and performance management.

Envysion’s recent partnership strategy evolved from a desire to provide customers with the best possible incident verification experience. Restaurant owners and operators can display video from within their favorite reporting tools and have immediate, same-screen access to all the data they need to arrive at firm conclusions and take action to reduce loss, faster and with more certainty.

“Relying on transaction data alone to uncover and prevent loss adds time and introduces error to the investigations process,” says Calvin Quan, CEO of Envysion. “Having video evidence to corroborate suspected losses is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity for today’s restaurant. We’ve pursued integrations with the leading data analytics platforms because we believe having access to in-depth transactional reports and time-stamped video saves time, money, and takes all the guesswork out of loss investigations and improving store performance.”

“Envysion’s fast and responsive managed video platform helps us with overall restaurant operations by letting us perform procedural checks and safety audits from anywhere we have a laptop. In the unfortunate event of a theft or altercation, we are able to help authorities by providing footage from many different angles throughout the restaurant,” says Mark Lambos, Vice President of Operations, Kendall House, Inc., a KFC franchise. “The integration with Envysion’s own audits, combined with other loss prevention services and reporting tools take us directly to the specific transaction and timeframe with a single click, saving us much time in the field.”
