maltatoday | SUNDAY • 1 SEPTEMBER 2019 21 COMMERCIAL 19 DOMINO'S Pizza is well known as a company con- tinually striving to maintain its high standards through unique, original and often leading cutting-edge uses of technology. By recently succeeding in becoming the largest pizza company in the world based on global retail sales, execu- tives of the company have stressed their desire to main- tain this promotion of tech- nology by implementing a new workspace for their de- velopers. Cross-functional teams un- der the Domino's brand will now have a new space called the 'Domino's Innovation Ga- rage' where they will be able to experiment, create and test new ideas to take the brand to the next level. Domino's Innovation Ga- rage will be located at Dom- ino's Farms in Ann Arbor, from which their ideas and developments will travel across the globe and be im- plemented in every store in- cluding ones in Malta. The new 33,000-square-foot Innovation Garage is poised to become a two-story build- ing with an open-concept de- sign space fully able to hold 150 working Domino's team members. With plans to implement collaboration workspaces, private meeting rooms and a fully-functioning pizza thea- tre, the American company has assured the public of their direct approach to their prod- uct and the technology which surrounds it by sparing no ex- pense. While still keeping their cards firmly close to their chest, Domino's have stated that they intend to use project based teams to design, devel- op and test new technologies such as ordering kiosks and a carryout tracker, in a store setting. Domino's Innovation Ga- rage will also have a dedicated space for testing delivery in- novations, including the GPS delivery tracking experience and the customer interface on autonomous pizza delivery vehicles. In addition to future tech- nology, the facility will hold all of Domino's current Any- Ware ordering technology, in-store technology and a quality assurance lab for test- ing prototypes. When speaking about the new innovation project, Domino's chief technology officer Kelly Garcia stated "Domino's Innovation Garage is focused on accelerating Domino's spirit of creativity and collaboration. As a pizza company with a focus on technology, we want our team members to have a workspace that encourages experimentation and fosters an environment to take risks, test innovations and fail-fast so they can bring their best cutting-edge ideas to life for the brand's customers and stores." Through their continual investment into research- ing latest technologies, as well as their strive to be a cut above the rest, Domino's have shown time and time again throughout their storied his- tory that wherever they lead, others follow. Understanding their re- sponsibility to the thousands of outlets across the globe, and even those found on our island, Domino's have contin- ued in their resolve to invest into their product, and give them the edge over any of their competition.
