Cleaning Kits as Preventative Maintenance Improves Retail Performance
In 2013, a pilot study was done in 15 national retail locations over a 5 week period. Store owners and operators were asked to test a very simple cleaning kit designed to target specialized POS equipment including card readers, touch screens and thermal printers.
The results showed that 100% recommended that this cleaning kit be implemented as preventative maintenance because:
Customers were more satisfied that card readers worked the first time
Lines moved faster since the devices functioned properly
Managers felt the small investment in the cleaning kit reduced need for service and device replacement
And, unexpectedly, cleaning increased employee pride!
Results and comments from Pilot study participants:
We no longer need to replace print heads every 8 weeks!
Loved the credit card cleaners…the cards run much better. No misreads!
This was a big eye opener to how dirty equipment gets in just one week. We normally don't clean it every week."
I believe taking the time once a week to do the cleaning could save a lot of downtime.
