Brick Oven Pizza Company, a local pizza chain, was facing a significant challenge when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The company had been focusing solely on in-restaurant dining, but with the pandemic forcing restaurants across the United States to close down, they needed a new strategy. They needed a way to promote, accept, and manage online orders. The goal was to create a pandemic-proof system that could increase sales despite the external circumstances. If the state was in lockdown, the strategy would need to promote takeout and delivery orders. If the government lifted restrictions, it would need to highlight dine-in offers. More importantly, the system needed to be adaptable to change with market demands.
