THE COMPLETE KITCHEN MANAGER

barkeeper kitchen manager

We regularly encounter Pubs where 60% of turnover is accounted for by Food Revenue; yet more often than not, the owners are more concerned with stocktaking in the bar than in the kitchen, with the result that excessive costs and losses are compounded week on week rather than identified and remedied.

It is essential that all costs are monitored in the kitchen to maximise this source of revenue. With this in mind, we have developed the exclusive Barkeeper Kitchen Manager , an advanced Microsoft Excel based application which will allow you t

- Monitor Deliveries
- Analyse Revenue
- Analyse the Food Sales Mix
- Monitor Stock on hand levels
- Analyse Labour Cost
- Analyse Recipe Costs
- Analyse stock consumption
- Identify Key Performance Indicators
 
The Main Page (above) shows all kitchen results at a glance once all entries have been made in the various maintenance screens:
 
Purchases Register

Enter the details from your delivery dockets as you receive them. Compare your delivery prices at this stage to the prices you have contracted with each supplier to ensure you are not being overcharged. The formulas will autocalculate the totals of all deliveries and report on the main page.
 
 
 
Sales Mix Analysis
 
By entering the cost price of the ingredients of each dish, you will be able to analyse the potential margin each dish on your menu makes. You can use this information to encourage staff members to upsell high margin items as well as for controlling portions to achieve targeted margins. You will also be able to compare your actual profit margin against your potential profit margin each period.
 
Stock on Hand Count
 
Enter your closing stock count in this sheet once you have entered in your contracted prices for each item. The value of each item will then be calculated automatically and the totals reported on the main page. Anytime your supplier prices change, simply change the unit costs in this sheet.
 
The Barkeeper Kitchen Manager is all you will need to analyse your kitchen operations for efficiency, but this is only for operators who are serious about increasing profits in the kitchen. There is a full set of instructions included with this package so you can start implementing your new systems from the moment you download this package.
 
Analyse your Labour Cost
 
Enter your labour cost using our easy to edit table for part time staff and salaried staff or alternatively, simply enter the total wage bill for the stock period into a single cell and your labour cost will be compared to your sales instantly for you to ananlyse your performance.
