1. Customer Evaluation
Bare Excellence offers customer evaluation
through mystery audit ser vices for exist ing
hospitality establishments – hotels, restaurants
and bars as well as retail outlets.
Our mystery audits are carried out by trained
mystery auditors who will interact with our clients’
staff during everyday customer satisfaction and
customer service situations. Their reports give our
clients unbiased and accurate feedback. Using
their eyes our clients are able to see both what
their establishment is doing well and where
additional training or investment is required.
Each of our clients’ mystery audits are customized to ensure their
unique requirements are met so as to give the objective analysis
required for successful results!
We conduct three types of audits as detailed below;
Customer Service Audit
This will audit your establishment’s customer service delivery, we
will send our trained mystery auditors as ‘undercover’ customers to
analyse your services, products, controls and facilities (from an average
customers perspective) and from the reports generated, we will be
able to assist you to know where you stand in your customers eyes
and identify areas for improvement.

Internal Audit
This will audit your establishment’s internal processes,
we will send our trained mystery auditors as an
‘undercover’ employee to analyze your teams’ way
of working, underlying feelings, general treatment
and procedure adherence over a period of time.
In this way the heart of the establishment gets to
be heard, this will assist you to know where you
need to train, recruit or reward with no bias.
Benchmark Audit
This will audit your establishment’s competitors,
we will send trained auditors as ‘undercover’
customers to analyse how you compare to your
competi tors ser vices, products, controls and
facilities (from an average customers perspective).
The benchmark audit allows you to hear an unbiased opinion of
what your competition is doing from a customers’ perspective and use
this information to benchmark your establishment against competitors.
2. Concept Development
Bare Excellence with a team of talented consultants will formulate
new establishments through creative ideas for a competitive final
product. The creation of a Bare Excellence concept is driven by
our clients’ vision, modern trends, local market demands and value
for investment.
The concept would broadly include:
Architectural design and structure – identification of the most
suitable product to develop on the identified site.
