Dining Services’ FoodPro food production management system is able to accurately forecast our production needs, enabling batch cooking which reduces food waste. The size of our serving utensils corresponds with the portion size forecasts in FoodPro, further increasing our production accuracy. Based on our gross production needs, we are able to set up bulk purchases allowing both fiscal and environmental responsibility through fewer deliveries.
