Central Kitchen Requisition SOP: Seamless Branch Ordering & Route Dispatch

Branch restaurant managers submit raw ingredient requisitions on mobile prior to the 10:00 PM cutoff. The system aggregates cross-branch quantities, splits pick-and-weigh lists by department, and produces automated truck delivery manifests.

Operational Bottleneck

Operating 3 to 10 restaurant outlets without centralized software results in chaotic WhatsApp group ordering. Outlet managers message orders late at night with inconsistent item descriptions (e.g. 'marinated chicken 8pcs' vs 'cut chicken'). Central kitchen prep teams wake at 3 AM parsing endless chat threads. Ingredients get miscounted, delivery trucks depart late, and outlets run out of core menu items during peak lunch rushes.

Monthly drain:RM 7,000 - RM 20,000
Automation Outcome

Ingredient spoilage from erratic dispatch and sales lost to mid-day stockouts routinely cost multi-unit F&B chains RM7,000 to RM20,000 every single month.

Recaptured capacity:~22 hrs / week

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this enforce minimum order quantities (MOQs) or pack multiples?

Yes. Products can be configured with minimum batch sizes or carton multiples to streamline packaging.

What happens if an emergency order is required after cutoff?

Includes a secure 'Emergency Requisition' protocol requiring automated Operations Director sign-off via WhatsApp before release.
