Newly Engineered for Tandem Drive-Thrus

The ZOOM Nitro Timer takes tandem operations to the next level with enhanced dashboard graphics, tandem-specific detection logic, and cloud-based reporting. Empower your team to solve performance issues on the spot with a real-time view of your tandem lane.

Measure Real-Time Thru-Put. Maximize Results

Provide your team with a target number of cars to serve within the hour. At the top of every hour, the calculation resets and reacts to any present bottlenecks affecting your service times, resulting in the most up-to-date estimates at all times of the day.

Critical Information at a Glance

The bottleneck ticker provides key information at a glance in a color-coded snapshot, helping managers make quick and informed decisions to improve results and enhance the customer experience. Bottleneck information is automatically recalculated with each transaction, freeing managers to stay focused on coaching the crew and running your operation.

POS Integration Enables Data-Driven Decisions

ZOOM Nitro supports integration with multiple POS systems to provide key transactional data to further enable data-driven decisions.* You can see on the dashboard each vehicle’s POS transaction number with wait time to present the right order quickly and easily to the right car for greater order accuracy. Or choose to display the order total with wait time to better anticipate a large order and pull the car forward to serve others faster.

*POS integration and geofence availability varies by brand. Call your HME representative for details on POS and mobile integrations readily available or in plan for your organization.

Critical Insight Delivered to the Right Person at the Right Time

Integration between the ZOOM Nitro Timer and the NEXEO | HDX Crew Communication Platform makes it easier than ever to stay on top of your drive-thru performance. Alerts are sent from your ZOOM Nitro Timer to your NEXEO headset, providing actional insight to key staff when it matters most and leading to immediate action that improves performance on the spot.  Enhance your team’s awareness to key events like when a customer in the drive-thru lane exceeds your specified lane total wait time, and take your operation to the next level.

Actionable Insight for a More Profitable Operation

Dive into your stores’ historical data for a greater understanding of traffic flows and volume trends. Learn what’s truly happening in your drive-thru and identify improvement opportunities specific to each store, like analyzing volume trends to assist with staffing plans. With ZOOM Nitro, you’ll have the insight you need to dramatically improve your bottom line.

Display up to 16 different independent spaces on the dashboard such as mobile pickup and pull-forward. With all key areas of your operation now visible on the dashboard, guests remain top-of-mind no matter where they are located.

A Seamless Mobile Guest Experience

Easily identify a mobile order customer by the blue outline that appears around the order number on the dashboard. Integrate your geofence technology with ZOOM Nitro to enable a designated bypass lane for mobile orders, creating a frictionless drive-thru pickup experience.
