Restaurants keep many logs: fridge temperatures, receiving goods, cleaning, staff training. On paper, they're often filled in hastily, or even after the fact.
What digital makes possible
- Reminders: the app reminds staff to take temperatures at the scheduled time.
- Alerts: an out-of-range temperature triggers a notification to the manager.
- Proof: each entry is timestamped and linked to an employee.
- A history you can search in seconds during an inspection.
The logs to digitize first
- Temperatures of refrigeration equipment.
- Receiving goods (temperature, condition, supplier).
- Cleaning and sanitizing by area.
- Staff food hygiene and safety training.
In the kitchen, simplicity rules
A wall-mounted tablet, big buttons, a few seconds per entry. If it takes longer than paper, it won't get used.
Compliance
Check with Quebec's Ministère de l'Agriculture, des Pêcheries et de l'Alimentation (MAPAQ) for the requirements that apply to your establishment.
