McDonald’s Re-Image Programme Bruce Robinson – LAUK Lighting Ltd

2006 - Re-Image Programme Launch In 2006 McDonald’s implemented a Pan-European programme to transform the image of their restaurants as a key component of a broader sales and marketing strategy designed to increase their share of the Quick Service Restaurant sector. Before Re-Image

2006/7 – Re-Image Programme Trials During 2006/7 and before the “Economic Crash” McDonald’s completed design concept trials at 200 Flagship sites to prove out the programme robustness and test customer reaction. After Re-Image

2008 - Re-Image Roll-Out And so began a programme to “Re-Image” 1,000 Shopping Mall, High Street and Drive-Thru restaurants in 5 years - in simple terms a requirement to complete one restaurant every two days. The aesthetic transformation of restaurants was dramatic and well received by customers and staff alike.

Broad Stakeholder Participation Programme success required the participation of departmental stakeholders across a diverse spectrum of business disciplines: Re-Image Design Energy Build Team Services Finance

Principle Lighting Stakeholder Requirements Design Restaurant design concepts emphasised desired mood Kitchen lighting design met stringent requirements Patio lighting combined architectural and practical needs Car park lux levels increased to meet 24 hour operations Energy Ambitious energy reduction target for lighting set at 65% Energy reduction targets set for each element of lighting Recognition of phased reduction in line with technology Requirement to asset track products for retro-upgrade Build Team Project managers required simple product ordering Contractors required single/central point of order call off McDonald’s required extended manufacturer warranties QS teams required fixed pricing for Schedule of Rates
