- Building a balanced scorecard Hit-n-Kun Inc. owns and operates 10 food trucks (mobile kitchens) throughout metropolitan Los Angeles. Each food truck has a different food theme, such as Irish-Mexican fusion, traditional Mexican street food, Ethiopian cuisine, and Lebanese-Italian fusion. The company was founded three years ago by Juanita OBrien when she opened a single food truck with a unique menu. As her business has grown, she has become concerned about her ability to manage and control the business. OBrien describes how the company was built, its key success factors, and its recent growth. I built the company from the ground up. In the beginning it was just me. I drove the truck, set the menu, bought the ingredients, prepared the meals, served the meals, cleaned the kitchen, and maintained the equipment I made unique meals from quality ingredients and didnt serve anything that wasnt perfect. I changed my location daily and notified customers of my location via Twitter. As my customer base grew, I hired employees to help me in the truck Then one day I realized that I had a formula that could be expanded to multiple trucks. Before I knew it I had 10 trucks and was hiring people to do everything that I used to do by myself. Now I work with my team to build the menu, set daily locations for the trucks, and manage the operations of the business. My business model is based on providing the highest quality street food and charging more for it than other trucks do. You wont get the cheapest meal at one of my trucks, but you will get the best. The superior quality allows me to price my meals a little bit higher than the other trucks do. My employees are critical to my success. I pay them a better wage than they could make on other food trucks, and I expect more from them. I rely on them to maintain the quality that I established when I opened my first truck. Things are going great, but Im feeling overwhelmed. So far, the growth in sales has led to a growth in profitability but tm getting nervous. If quality starts to fall off, my brand value erodes, and that could affect the prices that I charge for my meals and the success of my business Create balanced scorecard measures for Hit-n-Run Food Trucks.

It has been using a process by which precooked hamburgers are prepared and placed under hot lamps. These hamburgers are then sold to customers. In This process, every customer receives the same type of hamburger and dressing (ketchup, onions, mustard). If a customer wants something different, then a special order must be cooked to the customers requirements. This requires the customer to wait several minutes, which often slows down the service line. Grill Rite has been receiving more and more special orders from customers, which has been slowing service down considerably. A. Is the Grill Rite service delivery system best described as a push or pull system? Explain. B. How might you use lean principles lo provide customers quick service, yet still allow them to custom order their burgers?arrow_forward
