The requirements for necta were correspondingly high. The transparent and comprehensible mapping of orders was particularly important to Mathias R\u00fc\u00dfler, both for internal customers such as all-day schools and for external partners.  <\/p>\n<p>Reliable allergen labelling was also essential. As a bio-certified company, IN VIA also needed a digital solution that efficiently supports compliance with the corresponding standards. <\/p>\n<p>Another important concern was the integration of a central, seasonal purchasing logic: IN VIA pursues a conscious and sustainable approach to food &#8211; products such as honeydew melons or strawberries in December should be avoided.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243; desktop_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;149637&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; align_horizontal=&#8221;align_center&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;5&#8243; style=&#8221;light&#8221; back_color=&#8221;color-lxmt&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;100&#8243; radius=&#8221;hg&#8221; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;106524&#8243; el_class=&#8221;quote-intern&#8221; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243; desktop_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; limit_content=&#8221;&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;183451&#8243; el_class=&#8221;quote-intern&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;4&#8243; style=&#8221;dark&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;alpha-anim&#8221; animation_speed=&#8221;1600&#8243; width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;128375&#8243; el_class=&#8221;quote-intern&#8221;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;163219&#8243; media_width_use_pixel=&#8221;yes&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; shape=&#8221;img-circle&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;202490&#8243; media_width_pixel=&#8221;400&#8243; el_id=&#8221;quote-img&#8221; el_class=&#8221;quote-img&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;7\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;118785&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;144043&#8243;]<strong><em>\u201cWith necta, we have a digital guardian on our side that helps us to purchase seasonally, responsibly and consistently.

Time savings of 30 to 35% were achieved, particularly in labeling, planning and evaluation. Instead of confusing Excel spreadsheets, standardized and comprehensible processes in necta now ensure greater security in everyday kitchen life. The possibility of central purchasing control facilitates strategic procurement and creates scope for sustainable range design.   <\/p>\n<p>necta also offers noticeable advantages in everyday life: evaluations and weekly statistics can be called up quickly, menu plans can be evaluated in terms of calculation, so that compliance with the budget becomes transparent during planning. And the system even supports the workflow: Automated reminder emails help to meet deadlines, e.g. B. for menu plan approval, a real added value in daily organization.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243;

Conclusion[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;117376&#8243;]IN VIA K\u00f6ln, with Mathias R\u00fc\u00dfler and Antonio La Rocca responsible for school catering, is pursuing an ambitious vision for the digital and sustainable further development of its catering facilities. The goal is the complete digitization of all catering processes in order to further increase efficiency, transparency and quality. <\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the integration of sustainability principles is to be even more firmly anchored, both through conscious product selection and through active educational impulses in the institutions supported.<\/p>\n<p>A simple but effective example: <strong>The organic apple. <\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>It shows the children that real, ecologically grown fruit does not always look perfect and that this is okay. This creates a basic understanding of natural foods, seasonality and the respectful use of resources. <\/p>\n<p>With this combination of digital control and lived educational work, IN VIA is making an important contribution to a more conscious nutritional culture, even among the youngest.<\/p>\n<p>Another focus is on strengthening the decision-making authority on site, for example in schools and daycare centers, where staff can independently make order quantities or menu plan adjustments. IN VIA&#8217;s prospective idea is to produce special diet menus independently in its own kitchen &#8211; these are currently still purchased. The search is already underway for reliable suppliers who meet the highest standards in allergen labelling.  <\/p>\n<p>With necta, IN VIA K\u00f6ln has found a solution that not only improves processes, but also makes attitudes visible.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243; desktop_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;1&#8243;
