Food & Beverage Management

Fusion is designed for the corporate catering world.

  • The use of delivery and distribution reports – we have everything from a selection of a half a dozen packing slips to a report that itemizes all contents of a truck for multiple food deliveries.
  • Directions saved with either location or customers for automatic placement on delivery documents, even load-in instruction are included.
  • Delivery charges automatically assessed based on the location of the delivery.
  • On-Line ordering, an option that allows your clients to select menu items from predefined recipes that you have made available through Fusion to the web.

Corporate catering is normally associated with off-premise caterers. Catering companies that specializing in delivering a large number of events frequently with more modest per capita revenue on a per event basis.

Corporate caterers frequently serve breakfast meetings, luncheons and other special corporate events without much advanced notice. Even events that often require changes at production catering, sports events, corporate hospitality, last minute business meetings, pharmaceutical representatives and special events are made much easier.

With the assistance of Fusion you plan and execute the perfect event for your clients with a precision and confidence you never thought possible.

Using Fusion the event management catering company can very quickly formulate menus designed to your clients’ specifications and your operations team will be offered a detailed plan to ensure flawless execution. They can allocate delivery assets in terms of trucks, drivers, and equipment.

As is the case with all of the features in Fusion – we continue where other programs stop. For example, with some applications, menu management is an option, and frequently is garnered from another vendor. It is an inclusive piece of our software and so specifically designed to work in this market. It will give the caterer a report of what needs to be prepared by which department up to the minute. The reports can even be so specific that individual pieces of kitchen production can be identified.

Ingredient and Recipe Breakdowns

Fusion provides a detailed recipe management module integrating recipes, ingredients, production information, event management site information and event web management of those recipe items.

A properly formulated recipe will scale for kitchen production, will provide through information both the sales team and the customer as well as the crucial details for the item at the event sit

Kitchen Production Systems

A few years ago, we worked closely with a client to reduce paper costs and automate their large production kitchen. The objective was to implement tablets at the food production stations that would provide their kitchen staff with the specific information necessary for their individual departments. This approach was a huge success! 

The kitchen staff can run everything from individual recipe cards for an item they are producing to packing labels for the finished product all while clocking in their start and end times to track the true production labor time to produce the product.

We utilized Microsoft Surface tablets for this project as they have plenty of choices for mounts, cases, and varying specifications for your budgets.

Staff Scheduling

In Fusion™ the normal initial step is the sales team adding the staff requirements into the event. This entry of information provides sales with estimated costs of event management staffing and billing charges for the event. This is done by them defining the skill types required as well as the number need and the desired times.

Once these original needs are defined, the event management  staffing department can decide which will be your in-house or sub-contract labor to work events using a multitude of features built into Fusion™. When assigning event labor Fusion™ the program will eliminate overbooking and the double-booking of personnel. The staffing component is accomplished by presenting the staffer with the available event management staff members based on their respective skill types.

In addition to maintaining all of your staff members’ skill types, Fusion™ provides you with a comprehensive labor database including details such as pictures, clothing sizes, work history, skill types and of course multiple contact sources everyone seems to have today.

Chef Scheduling

Synergy Fusion comes with a powerful and comprehensive food production assignment feature. Your production can be scheduled by the day, production area, and even down to the person that you want to produce the item.

Reports can be generated in the same manner allowing for your production units to have exact information available for a given production cycle. Couple this feature with our recipe management tools and you have a complete event management production process that will give you consistent and accurate production figures.
