Smarter Workplace Meals. Less Food Waste.<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

WorkMeal combines workplace catering with smart meal planning. Employees pre-order their meals, companies manage participation and costs, and our system uses demand data to help optimise production and reduce unnecessary food waste.<\/em>

How WorkMeal Works<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Employees Pre-Order<\/strong>
Employees select their meals in advance through the WorkMeal platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Companies Stay in Control<\/strong>
Employers can monitor meal participation, costs and upcoming orders from one dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Smart Production Planning<\/strong>
Order data helps WorkMeal determine how many meals need to be prepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Less Waste, Better Decisions<\/strong>
Demand data and historical patterns help optimise production and reduce unnecessary food waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart Demand Forecasting<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

WorkMeal uses pre-orders and historical demand patterns to estimate how many meals are likely to be needed. This helps improve production planning, reduce unnecessary surplus and make workplace catering more efficient.<\/strong>

Pre-order meals, manage upcoming orders and indicate when no meal is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Company Dashboard<\/strong>
Monitor participation, upcoming orders and workplace meal costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Operations Dashboard<\/strong>
Combine demand from multiple companies into a single production and delivery plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waste & Demand Analytics<\/strong>
Compare forecast demand, confirmed orders, production and surplus to continuously improve future planning<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Demand Forecasting & Food Waste Analytics<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

WorkMeal analyses pre-orders, historical demand patterns and operational data to improve demand forecasting and production planning. The goal is to reduce overproduction and measurable food waste over time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prototype \u2014 All figures shown are demo data. Actual performance will be validated during pilot testing.<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pilot Programme<\/strong>
<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

WorkMeal is preparing a pilot programme with small and medium-sized businesses in the Rotterdam region to test our smart workplace meal model in real operating conditions.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pilot partners will help us validate employee pre-ordering, demand forecasting, production planning and food-waste measurement before wider commercial rollout.<\/strong>
