FOODSERVICE & FACILITY RENTALS
EVALUATION—NEEDS ASSESSMENT
Review the client’s current operation, contract (if outsourcing)
and services. These services include but are not necessarily limited
to purchasing, staffing, merchandising, business plans, menus, and
food production
and/or the books and records of account, and provide quantitative evaluations
and recommendations that will improve customer service and/or client
financial results.
SELF-OPERATION VS. OUTSOURCING
Assist and guide our client through a careful and thorough process in order
to determine which method of operation is best suited for the client.
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP)
If client selects outsourcing, we prepare and distribute an RFP, identify
prospective operators, assist with the review and analysis of proposals,
operator selection, and negotiate the most favorable contractual terms
and conditions. Similar services are available to establish or update
an "approved caterer" program.
CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS & CONTRACT COMPLIANCE
Negotiate or renegotiate a more favorable and fair contract between our
client and the operator. Audit contract compliance during life of contract.

new facility, we work with your architect as part of the project team providing
foodservice related input throughout the process.
FACILITY RENTALS, SPECIAL EVENTS & CATERING
Provide advice and counsel regarding effective facility rental and special
event programs including exclusive and non-exclusive catering relationships,
contracting and financial evaluation.

more about your current and prospective customers and advise you on how
to use this information to improve sales, per capita spending, customer
counts, and bottom-line performance.
