Problem
Restaurants, hotels, and bars must manage numerous regulatory inspections (food, alcohol, safety, electrical) and maintain extensive documentation, training records, and daily operational tasks. Keeping paperwork up to date, delegating tasks, and ensuring staff compliance is time‑consuming and prone to errors, especially across multiple locations.
Solution
Runwell offers a cloud‑based, all‑in‑one platform that consolidates internal control, communication, and training for the hospitality sector. The system provides customizable checklists and digital handbooks for food safety (IK‑mat), alcohol service, emergency preparedness, and electrical inspections, with real‑time alerts when documents expire or deviations occur. A built‑in chat tool enables task delegation and instant messaging tailored to operational needs, while a centralized training hub stores certifications, tracks course completion, and supports role‑specific modules such as safety officer and HMS training. Integrated temperature monitoring and a one‑click “control button” streamline audit preparation, allowing staff to retrieve required documentation on the spot. All data are stored securely in the cloud and accessible via web or mobile apps, giving managers a unified view of compliance across all sites.
Target Audience
Primary customers are operators of restaurants, hotels, bars and nightclubs—particularly multi‑site chains—that need to meet stringent regulatory requirements while streamlining daily operational workflows.
