Operational Consulting

It is always interesting to see new twists on kitchen design. The one I am working with currently gets food to the service level by dumbwaiter. Unfortunately the kitchen has a line design that does not key into the dumbwaiter launch point and of course the hood system is in place. Small changes on the first night made things a little better, more to follow.
The Yale retainer started yesterday with one short phone call. I am sure as things develop more information will be forthcoming.
