Production Planning
CLEARVIEW’s advanced inventory forecasting helps you build a successful kitchen production plan by predicting a customer menu demands down to the 15-minute level of detail. Stop your managers from setting menu and prep items “build to” and “holding” based on their gut.
As a fully flexible and customizable kitchen production engine, restaurants can incorporate these predictions across the full product lifecycle from restocking, thaw, prep, pre-cook, bake and of course holding units. Inclusion of each item’s primary and secondary shelf life ensures the product you serve is fresh & fast!
Designed by kitchen managers, a range of made-to-order and make-to-stock configurations are available for you to choose from. Highly configurable, production plans can be fully tailored for a particular time of day and kitchen station The register or counter at which a transaction is recorded..
