Paragon operates Hungry Hunter’s, Hunter’s Steakhouse, Mountain Jack’s and Carvers restaurants in 11 states.

The total store automation solution will include NCR’s 7460 touchscreen workstation, plus personal computers, receipt printers, Aloha TableService POS software from Aloha Technologies and back office software from MenuLink Computer Solutions, Inc. Following pilot installations in two stores late this year, a chain-wide rollout is scheduled for the first and second quarters of 2002.

NCR’s project management and staging services, as well as the advanced technology and configuration flexibility of the NCR 7460, were key reasons cited by Paragon for selecting NCR.

The NCR account management team worked closely with us to present a superior recommendation that included a comprehensive implementation plan, said Chris Sparks, director of Information Systems for Paragon. The NCR touchscreen workstations, together with the Aloha and MenuLink software, offered exceptional value. We believe the new easy-to-use solution will please employees, enhance service to customers, and improve operational efficiency in each of our restaurants.
