A hotel group runs on guest counts alone.

The food-cost guarantee
We agree a target food cost and stand behind it.
How it works
Baseline and target food cost agreed per guest.
Metis plans, calculates and supplies to that target.
The ERP tracks target vs. actual online, continuously.
If actual exceeds target under the agreed conditions, Metis covers the difference.
Typical conditions
Guest counts entered on time
Menu plan followed
Orders placed from the ERP plan
Exact terms are set per customer in the contract.
Ground rules
Five rules that make the guarantee work.
1
Focused menu
No parallel classic kitchen and no full à la carte offer; a simple snack menu is fine.
2
Standardisation
Fixed assortments, recipe cards, portion sizes and regeneration times.
3
Named operations lead
The house has the time and skills to cover the tasks handed over.
4
Cross-training
At least two service or front-office staff trained to cover short kitchen peaks.
5
Working-time discipline
No permanent overrun of the weekly kitchen-hour budget agreed in the audit.
Targets and limits are set per house, from the on-site audit.
Questions about Level 2
Good to know.
How is the food cost per guest set?
In the on-site audit we record your current food cost, purchasing and waste. From this we agree a baseline and a target per guest, which Metis plans, calculates and supplies to.
What happens if the food cost exceeds the target?
The ERP tracks target and actual online, continuously. If actual exceeds target under the agreed conditions, Metis covers the difference. Exact terms are in the contract.
How much work is the ERP for my team?
Very little: the house enters the daily guest count and confirms the order with one click. Menu planning, quantity calculation and order preparation are done by Metis.
Which businesses is Level 2 best for?
Family and mountain resorts with half board and predictable guest numbers, spa and health hotels with fixed meal plans, hotel groups that want group-wide cost control – and ski areas running several huts.
What is your food cost per guest today?
In the on-site audit we establish your baseline – and show which target is realistic.
