Reducing Human Error and Improving Order Accuracy
August 28, 2025
Manual order-taking is prone to miscommunication and human error, leading to customer frustration and wasted resources. Touch Screen Self Service Kiosks virtually eliminate these errors by empowering customers to enter their own orders directly and clearly. This leads to a significant increase in order accuracy and customer satisfaction.
In the fast-food industry, a common issue is a misplaced order or a wrong item being prepared. A global burger chain installed self-service kiosks to allow customers to build their own burgers with all their chosen toppings. The system then sends a clear, digital order to the kitchen, eliminating any ambiguity. The company reported a 90% reduction in order-related complaints and a significant decrease in food waste from incorrect orders. The customer receives exactly what they asked for, leading to a much better experience.
The data from the chain showed that the kiosks not only improved order accuracy but also reduced transaction time, as the customer could take as long as they needed to make their selections without feeling rushed by a cashier. This led to a 15% increase in customer satisfaction scores related to order accuracy. The kiosk's ability to provide a clear, digital trail for every order ensures that a business can operate more efficiently and provide a higher quality of service. It's a simple change with a massive impact on the bottom line and customer loyalty.
