Fourth 6.3.4

The Fourth platform is recognized as a leading provider of innovative software solutions tailored for the hospitality industry. The Fourth App serves as a comprehensive mobile gateway, granting access to the full range of Fourth functionalities and integrated partner capabilities. Designed around a purpose-built platform that emphasizes team collaboration, the app facilitates essential processes to support the efficient and effective operation of hospitality businesses that prioritize customer satisfaction.

In an effort to enhance the employee experience both within and outside of work, Fourth offers a suite of mobile applications that streamline business operations using solutions such as Workforce Management, Purchase-to-Pay, and Inventory Management. These tools enable employees to collaborate efficiently, submit holiday requests, view and manage shifts, conduct stock counts, place orders, receive deliveries, and perform numerous other tasks essential to daily operations.

Fourth’s Workforce Management solution aims to simplify management responsibilities and improve employee engagement. Managers can generate accurate schedules swiftly and approve shift changes with minimal effort. They are able to publish open shifts, remain connected, and monitor business performance remotely. Employees benefit from precise scheduling, with capabilities to request shift swaps, indicate unavailability, volunteer for open shifts, apply for leave, and access payroll information—all while maintaining strong communication with managers and colleagues. This focus on streamlining administrative tasks allows managers to dedicate more time to personnel and customer interaction, fostering a more motivated workforce and enhancing overall company culture.

The Purchase-to-Pay and Inventory Management offerings are designed to maintain optimal stock levels through simplified inventory valuations. Ordering processes, inventory counts, and goods receipt activities can be performed directly on mobile devices, saving time and reducing errors associated with manual data entry. The solution also facilitates the calculation of Actual Cost of Sales (COS), enabling clear identification of variances between actual and theoretical costs. This insight supports improved inventory control—ensuring sufficient supply to meet demand while minimizing waste and unnecessary administrative workload.
