How are Operations Quality goals set?

DoorDash sets Operations Quality goals based on the average annual performance of the top 20% of DoorDash merchants. Meeting these goals means your store is performing at a level consistent with other top-performing merchants on the platform.

The Operations Quality tab consists of two key metrics:

  • Areas requiring your attention: Highlights metrics where your store/business is underperforming.

  • Areas on track: Highlights metrics where your store/business is performing well.

Keeping track of these metrics helps you make strategic changes as needed, informed by data from other businesses and customer needs. 

Which operations quality metrics are tracked?

Operations quality includes the following metrics:

  • Avoidable wait

  • Avoidable cancellations

  • Downtime

  • Order accuracy (missing or incorrect items)

  • Customer rating

Each metric highlights a different part of the delivery and fulfillment experience that you can directly influence. To read more about operations quality reporting, click here.
