How We Do It
Recipe Costing

Custom Storage Areas & Multiple Count Units

Targeted Reporting
Over 70 different reports are at your fingertips, providing invaluable information, and allowing you to know where your operations can be improved and ultimately maximize your profits.
“I’ve heard it so many times, ‘we are working on food costs’, and that means we aren’t doing anything. With Optimum Control, and the ability to view IDEAL vs. Actual you can see where the big losses are coming and then attack it. And every time we focus, we improve our food costs.”
Robert Cawthorn, Franchise Partner
TiJuana Flats
“Optimum Control is the perfect tool for restaurant managers, chefs, and owners to grasp how their inventory really works. It can be daunting at first glance […] but you will become a master of your own goods. The more I use Optimum, the stronger my knowledge of all my products gets, and the more familiar I am with all the steps needed to keep control of my inventory – including ordering, recipes, and even menu creation. ”
