WHAT OUR SYSTEM CAN DO

An innovative kitchen management system – also known as order manager or kitchen display system (KDS) – is now an indispensable link between front of house and kitchen. It replaces traditional paper tickets, increases efficiency, minimises errors and ensures greater transparency across the entire kitchen process.

  • Digital orders in real time

    • Automatic display of all incoming orders directly on the kitchen display
    • Courses are displayed clearly – sorted by time, station or category
    • No more paper tickets – just structured digital communication
  • Course management & production control

    • Control of the course sequence (e.g. starter, main course, dessert) with a release function
    • Individual items or courses can be marked as “in preparation”, “ready”, “ready for pick-up”
    • Optional display of elapsed time (timer) per dish or table
  • Colour coding & visual status display

    • Coloured markers for status (“new”, “in progress”, “done”, “delayed”)
    • Improved overview – even with high order volumes
    • Visual feedback for the kitchen workflow and the service staff
  • Device control & multi-screen compatibility

    • Operation on touchscreens, tablets or permanently installed kitchen screens
    • Distribution across different stations (e.g. grill, pizza, dessert, bar)
  • Configurable display & prioritisation

    • Filter by station, item group, time or order channel (self-order, takeaway, restaurant…)
    • Prioritisation of pick-up or delivery orders
    • Automatic sequence based on order receipt, ticket number or preparation time
  • Full integration into the POS system

    • Direct connection to the POS, webshop, app and self-order kiosk
    • No duplicate entries, no switching between systems
  • Offline capability & stability

    • Synchronisation when the connection is restored
    • Stable performance even at high volumes
  • Traceability & reporting

    • Tracing of errors and delays
    • Real-time kitchen performance indicators
  • Interface to inventory management

    • automatic stock deduction during production

    • Preview, planning and analysis for the kitchen – totals across all tables
