Did you see us at EFA Phoenix 2026? We had a great experience joining this year’s conference alongside industry leaders, colleagues, and partners. Shawn Kaley, our VP of Consulting, joined Andrey Teleguz w/SCOPOS Hospitality Group and Melissa Laatsch w/ERDMAN to present “The Comforts of Cooking,” exploring how to design kitchens that truly feel like home.

The session highlighted a key reality: small household dining only works when thoughtful design is paired with intentional operations. Delivering a home-like experience requires the right equipment, proper training, structured programming, and a staffing model built to support three meals a day, every day.

Thank you to everyone who attended the session and took the time to connect with us afterward. We’re excited to keep pushing the conversation forward and partnering with communities ready to turn this vision into reality.

Strong partnerships are at the heart of every successful dining program. We’re grateful to work alongside organizations like Shenandoah Valley Westminster-Canterbury, providing support through staffing solutions, focus groups, and resources tailored to their needs.

Many food service operators use technology to improve customer experience, like online ordering and digital payments. However, the real game-changer for operational efficiency happens in the kitchen. Technology-based systems and AI are reshaping kitchen operations, improving workflow, reducing waste, and maximizing profit.

Predictive Ordering Systems – AI analyzes past sales and trends to predict the right amount of food you need, cutting down on waste and over-ordering.

Technology Based Kitchen Workflow – Smart kitchen systems organize food prep, assign tasks, and speed up orders, reducing manual labor while keeping food quality high.

Smart Energy Management – Technology tracks and adjusts energy use in real time, lowering utility bills and extending kitchen equipment life.

For food service operators wanting to stay competitive, incorporating these technologies to your business is essential. It not only improves efficiency but also helps secure the future of your operations in a data-driven industry.
