Une connectivité bien conçue est invisible, mais une mauvaise gestion provoque erreurs et incohérences, nuisant à la rentabilité.

Benefits include consistent quality, increased efficiency, error reduction, and easier staff training. Crafting SOPs involves clear objectives, staff involvement, appropriate formats, and regular updates, coupled with technology like PMS and CRM for optimal operations.
