Trades & Field

Automation for restaurants and hospitality.

Margins live in food cost and labour, and both are decided by a hundred small decisions nobody has time to review. A Convoy CIS keeps ordering, cost and scheduling visible daily instead of at month end.

01 / The friction

What we map first.

Before anything gets built, we go and look. These are the patterns we expect to find in a restaurants & hospitality operation. The recon confirms which ones are actually costing you, and which are fine as they are.

  • Food cost only understood weeks after the money is spent
  • Ordering done from memory rather than from actual usage
  • Schedules built by hand against forecast covers
  • Compliance and temperature logs kept on paper
  • Reviews across several platforms answered inconsistently
02 / The build

What a CIS would run.

Scoped and priced from the recon, deployed in your environment, owned by you. A human stays in command of every judgement call.

01

Cost & ordering

Usage and invoice data turned into order suggestions and a live food-cost view.

02

Labour scheduling

Rosters built against forecast demand, with overtime flagged before it happens.

03

Compliance logs

Checks captured digitally and retained, ready for an inspection.

04

Review response

Reviews across platforms surfaced and drafted for approval.

03 / The dashboard

This is how your board could look.

A command view built for Restaurants & Hospitality. Click an agent to see what it owns, switch a unit on, or add a panel. Nothing here is real data.

Illustrative only. Every figure here is invented to show the shape of the board. Convoy has no shipped builds yet and does not present demo numbers as client results.

04 / Wired into

Your tools stay your tools.

A CIS integrates rather than replaces. These are the systems we would expect to wire into here. If yours is not listed, it is almost certainly still workable.
