Chipotle Selects Envysion as Exclusive Video Provider for Enterprise Initiative
Envysion’s software-as-a-service will help Chipotle centrally manage distributed digital video for improved performance and operational visibility
BOULDER, Colo., June 4, 2007 – Envysion™ Inc., a provider of advanced video services for improved business processes, today announced it has been selected by Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc., the big burrito restaurant with more than 600 locations, to deploy its Web-based video management system in all of Chipotle’s restaurant locations. After reviewing other advanced video systems, Chipotle found the Envysion Video system to be the most complete, cost-effective solution for managing video across a broad enterprise.
Envysion Video enables customers to improve operations and profitability by easily accessing live or recorded video from any location using a simple Web-browser interface. It integrates with critical business systems, such as point of sale and security access, and enables reporting and alerting across all of a company’s locations.
“At Chipotle, we’re always looking for ways to better serve our customers,” said Monty Moran, president and COO of Chipotle. “The Envysion system will help us create a better environment for both our customers and our employees.”
Envysion Video represents a new breed of intelligent video systems that are centrally managed through an easy-to-use Web interface, integrated with business applications and offered through a hosted subscription service that delivers continuous improvements based on customer requirements.
“Chipotle’s dedication to continually improving its operations aligns with our belief that organizations must always seek new and innovative ways to understand and assess company performance,” said Matt Steinfort, Envysion’s president and COO. “With hundreds of employees needing access to video, Chipotle will benefit from our centrally managed software that scales far beyond a traditional video system and can be incorporated into other business systems and processes.”
