Please use the restaurant named Spotted Horse Tavern, a bar/restaurant as the business for this essay. For people “interviewed” please refer to them as manager 1 and 2. Main idea for improving the business in a digital transformation way to switch over to using handheld tablets for operations across the restaurant, including taking orders/payments inventory and analyzing and automatic inventory ordering. For data you can use I will upload another file later today with sales numbers so you can show the impact so far of instituting electronic tablets. I manage as well in this said location so you can use that to make everything sound more plausible.
