Franchise Roadmap Store Opener provides a single dashboard from which the franchisor can see where any new store is in the development process. Store development activities are defined by each franshisor and easily entered into the project management module that is utilized by each franchisee. Franchisors can easily support multiple, simultaneous franchise openings heading off issues before they arise. Store openings require an orchestrated effort to get the job done - ontime and on budget. Franchise Roadmap lets the franchisor determine the level of detail and amount of control over projects. They can be simple checklists or detailed tasks that encompass the franchisor, franchisee, and external vendors or contractors. Tasks can be assigned, managed and checked off by the appropriate person such as franchise support staff, vendor, or franchisee. Content can be controlled so people in specific roles only see the content appropriate for their responsibilities.

Franchise Roadmap lets you look across all franchise locations (or only those in your area) to see progress gauges of the activities completed. Progress can be viewed by stage of the process or by functional area.
Access location-specific information about who signed off on what and when. Access documents, enter comments, or see photos for any location by clicking on the progress gauge. The detailed view shows who signed off, when the activity should have occurred based on a targeted opening date, and includes any notes or documents posted during the opening process.

including the real estate, construction, financial requirements, staffing, marketing, and training
requirements. Each Store Opener uses the franchisor's process, terminology and branding.
