Challenges

The University of Montana (UM) employs upwards of 40 students at its grab-and-go market and approximately 20 students at the award-winning Iron Griz Grill. To improve student dining, UM needed a solution that would generate several improvements: increase speed of service at dining locations across campus, provide open-check functionality for tipping and running tabs and enhance the student experience with campus food trucks.

Solution

Transact implemented a fully integrated, multi-platform point-of-sale (POS) solution, Transact Cloud POS, built with the entire campus in mind. This allowed UM to improve student dining by eliminating obstacles that were reducing dining service revenue.
