Poor food and recipe cost control has been identified as the major reason that many catering operations turn in poor bottom line results. It's OK to have POS tills that state what has been sold each day, but it's pointless if sales are not making the correct Gross Profit Percentage (GP%) to recover overheads. Optimum Control Pro is easy to use food and beverage control software for caterers. The system includes recipe, menu costing, ordering, invoice records and stores control module. these are all vital "ingredients" in maintaining the correct GP%. OC Pro will track food costs, stock, price fluctuations, invoices and sales consumption and will integrate with most electronic tills and EPOS software. There are over 40 useful management reports. What most customers like is that OC Pro has been developed by caterers who work in the kitchen, not the accountant's office! For information call 01566 779470 or visit www.optimumcontrol.co.uk.
