Connecting Nutrition Planning, Production & Delivery
Running a nutrition delivery program requires coordination across enrollment, meal planning, kitchen production, inventory, orders, routes and drivers.
We developed a connected operational system that brings these workflows together, giving teams visibility from program planning through doorstep delivery.
Business Requirement
What the business needed
The client needed a centralized system to manage nutrition programs, meal planning, production, inventory and delivery operations.
The platform needed to support recurring breakfast, lunch and dinner programs while coordinating kitchen and delivery teams.
Manage nutrition programs and client enrollment centrally
Plan meals and turn plans into production schedules
Track ingredient inventory against production needs
Coordinate routes, drivers and deliveries across teams
The challenge
Where complexity was holding the business back
Complex Meal Planning
Meal requirements needed to be organized around programs, customers and daily meal schedules.
Production Coordination
Kitchen teams needed clear visibility into what needed to be prepared and when.
Inventory Management
Ingredients and supplies needed to be connected with production and order requirements.
Delivery Coordination
Routes, drivers and deliveries required centralized management.

Design one connected workflow
Link each stage so changes in a plan update production and routes.
Build and roll out in stages
Develop the platform and introduce it team by team.
