How the first weeks go
- Take the event logs you already haveERP, MES or the claims system write a timestamp on every step. We read them, nothing new is installed on the floor.
- Put a number on every queueProcess discovery shows where the work waits and what each hour of waiting costs. The bottleneck is usually not where people think.
- Change one thing and measure itWhat-if scenarios first, then one change in the real process, measured against the baseline. The second change starts when the first number is in.
In an engagement

What stays
F&B Inventory AI becomes part of how the property runs. The morning stand-up reads its numbers and the kitchen orders from them. Hand-over comes when the number has held for a quarter.
