Cypad case study
Product: Meal Selection
Service: Digital meal pre-ordering
What was the school looking for?
Chadsmead Primary Academy visited us at the LACA Main Event and was interested in the benefits it could provide for their school. The school needed a pre-order system, so they knew what to cook on the day. Chadsmead Academy had numerous children with allergies and dietary preferences to cater for, so they were also looking for a solution to centrally manage allergen and nutritional requirements carefully.
What did Cypad offer?
Chadsmead Primary was experiencing lots of food wastage because they were guessing the number of meals to cater for. With Cypad, the children get to choose what they fancy on the whiteboard in the morning. The school doesn’t have any children who cannot have their first choice of meal, every child gets what they want.
- It saves waste, and the kitchen knows exactly what they are cooking on the day.
- It gives the children independence as it is easy to use.
- For working parents, it’s easy to top up their accounts “on the go”.
The results
Since implementing Cypad’s digital meal pre-ordering solution, there has been no wastage in the kitchen as Chadsmead Academy can assign children to specific menus, allowing them to see only the choices they can have based on their allergen or dietary profile. Cypad not only ensures efficiency but also contributes to the happiness of the staff, who appreciate the tablet-optimised organisation platform.
In summary, digital meal pre-ordering solutions has eliminated kitchen waste from Chadsmead Academy. Our solution allows children to see only meal choices suitable for their allergen or dietary profiles, which ensures efficiency and boosts staff morale due to the tablet-optimised organisation platform we have provided.
