We issue specifications and standards to you for applicable aspects of the franchise in our Manual and/or in written directives. We may issue new specifications and standards for any aspect of our brand system, or modify existing specifications and standards, at any time by revising our Manual and/or issuing new written directives (which may be communicated to you by any method we choose). We will generally (but are not obligated to) issue new or revised specifications only after thorough testing in our headquarters, in company-owned outlets, and/or a limited market test in multiple units.

What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Bombs Away's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the specifications and standards applicable to the franchise are issued in the franchise's Manual and/or in written directives. Bombs Away retains the right to introduce new specifications and standards, or modify existing ones, for any aspect of its brand system.
These changes can be implemented at any time through revisions to the Manual or by issuing new written directives. Bombs Away may communicate these directives through any method they choose.
While not obligated to, Bombs Away will generally issue new or revised specifications only after thorough testing at its headquarters, in company-owned outlets, and/or through limited market tests in multiple units. This suggests that Bombs Away aims to ensure changes are well-vetted before franchisees are required to implement them.
