When I started in development at necta over 22 years ago, I never would have imagined how much my perspective on processes in large-scale kitchens would change. Today, in my role as Product Manager, I speak almost daily with kitchen managers, buyers, and caterers \u2013 and I recognize the same patterns everywhere: insufficient knowledge of stock levels, hastily created order lists, employees juggling between Excel spreadsheets and phone calls. And yet, in the end, the exact ingredient needed for the daily menu is missing.[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243; desktop_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221; medium_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; equal_height=&#8221;justify&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_use_pixel=&#8221;yes&#8221; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;722462&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; 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;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;468200&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;163419&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; shape=&#8221;img-round&#8221; radius=&#8221;hg&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;mask&#8221; animation_speed=&#8221;600&#8243; animation_easing=&#8221;power1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;158651&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][uncode_block id=&#8221;162886&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;7&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;justify&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_use_pixel=&#8221;yes&#8221; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; content_parallax=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;180364&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; 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;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;686274&#8243;][vc_empty_space empty_h=&#8221;2&#8243; desktop_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221; medium_visibility=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;213046&#8243;][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; 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;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;162137&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;190462&#8243;]I know these moments not only from customer conversations. I experienced them firsthand during the development of necta when we simulated processes. It was always astonishing to see how much energy, time, and nerves go into manual inventory management \u2013 and how great the relief is when a system suddenly brings everything together in the background. This is precisely where digital inventory management comes in.   <\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why <a href=\"https:\/\/www.necta-group.com\/en\/inventory-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">modern inventory management<\/a> has become so important<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The world of gastronomy is under pressure. Rising food prices, ever-new requirements for labelling and hygiene, and at the same time, staff shortages. In many conversations with kitchen managers, I sense that they want to ensure quality for their guests, but the general conditions make it increasingly difficult for them.  <\/p>\n<p>I still remember a conversation with a kitchen manager from a social institution at a trade fair. He told me: &#8220;I put 500 meals on the table every day, but I only have half the staff I used to. If I continue working with Excel, I&#8217;ll go under.&#8221; Such statements stick with you.  <\/p>\n<p>That is precisely why digital inventory management is no longer a &#8220;nice to have&#8221; today, but a necessity. It helps maintain an overview, automate processes, and save time \u2013 so that people in kitchens can once again do what truly matters: put good food on the plate.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;103234&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The advantages I consistently observe in practice<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>What has always motivated me as a developer and now as a product manager are the moments when customers tell us how much easier their daily lives have become. By now, I know the advantages from dozens of projects \u2013 and they are consistent everywhere. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Real-time transparency<\/strong>: I used to often hear &#8220;We don&#8217;t know exactly what&#8217;s in the warehouse.&#8221; Today, chefs open necta and immediately see inventory, cost of goods sold, and costs. No more nasty surprises.  <\/li>\n<li><strong>Flexible purchasing<\/strong>: A customer proudly told me that thanks to necta, he is no longer dependent on a single supplier. He compares prices, orders freely \u2013 and thus saves hard cash. <\/li>\n<li><strong>At<\/strong> <strong>IN VIA K\u00f6ln<\/strong>, teams were able to save <strong>30\u201335% of time in planning and evaluation<\/strong> by implementing necta. Instead of confusing Excel files, clear digital processes now provide noticeable relief in daily kitchen operations. Read the full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.necta-group.com\/en\/case\/in-via-koeln\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">success story<\/a> here.  <\/li>\n<li><strong>Less food waste<\/strong>: More precise planning significantly reduces waste. For me, this is one of the most beautiful effects, because it not only lowers costs but also has a sustainable impact. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Legal certainty<\/strong>: The topic of allergen labelling is complex. Many kitchen managers work much more relaxed thanks to digital support, as they can rely on accurate data. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Which functions make the difference<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>As a developer, I always built necta with one goal: the software must be practical. No theoretical gimmicks, but real help in everyday life. Today, as a product manager, I see exactly which functions are the biggest levers:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Warehouse management &amp; mobile inventory<\/strong>: When customers tell me they can now simply walk through the warehouse with a tablet and record stock, I feel how much stress this eliminates.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Automated orders<\/strong>: Setting minimum stock levels, receiving suggestions, making flexible decisions \u2013 for me, this is the perfect blend of control and relief.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recipe &amp; allergen management<\/strong>: I find it particularly exciting how centralized recipe management simplifies daily life. Even with staff absences due to illness, everything continues because everyone uses the same data. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Real-time dashboards<\/strong>: I love it when kitchen managers show me their operating results and say, &#8220;Finally, I have my numbers under control.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Interfaces<\/strong>: In conversations with accountants and controllers, I see how important it is that the cash register, suppliers, and accounting are connected. No more redundant work steps. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_single_image media=&#8221;162512&#8243; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; shape=&#8221;img-round&#8221; radius=&#8221;hg&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;mask&#8221; animation_speed=&#8221;600&#8243; animation_easing=&#8221;power1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;128161&#8243;][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;928787&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How the transition succeeds \u2013 from my experience<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Many ask me: &#8220;Klaus, sounds good \u2013 but isn&#8217;t the implementation complicated?&#8221;<br \/>\nFrom my experience, I can only say: If the steps are clearly structured, it happens surprisingly quickly.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Inventory assessment<\/strong>: Our experienced project staff work with the customer to identify where manual work is still being done and where the potential lies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data maintenance<\/strong>: Basic products, recipes, and suppliers are transferred into the system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Rollout<\/strong>: We provide practical training for the teams.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Success measurement<\/strong>: After a few weeks, the results are visible \u2013 less time spent, less food waste, better cost control.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One example: <strong>IN VIA K\u00f6ln<\/strong> was able to save <strong>30\u201335% of time<\/strong> in planning and evaluation with necta. Thanks to centrally maintained recipes and clear digital processes, everyone now works uniformly \u2013 even in cases of illness or staff changes. Teams have significantly less manual control and rework, which brings noticeable relief to daily kitchen operations.  <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Which key figures truly matter<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As a product manager, I talk a lot about numbers. But what truly matters? From my perspective, these KPIs are particularly important:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cost of goods sold ratio<\/strong> \u2013 shows how economically operations are managed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Inventory discrepancies<\/strong> \u2013 shrinkage and overstocking are immediately noticeable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Price and supplier comparison<\/strong> \u2013 creates negotiation leverage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Time savings in the process<\/strong> \u2013 every hour less office work is an hour more for the kitchen.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Food waste reduction<\/strong> \u2013 my personal passion, because it combines sustainability and cost control.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Trends I find exciting<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In my conversations with customers, one topic comes up more and more often: <strong>sustainability<\/strong>. ESG criteria, EU regulations, CO\u2082 transparency \u2013 all of this is coming to the industry. <\/p>\n<p>When we linked necta with <strong>Eaternity<\/strong>, that was a real highlight for me. Suddenly, we could calculate the CO\u2082 footprints of recipes and thus make sustainability measurable. I see a huge competitive advantage in this \u2013 and many kitchen managers confirm this to me.  <\/p>\n<h2><strong>My Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Looking back over the past few years, I see a clear development: digital inventory management has evolved from a &#8220;nice to have&#8221; to an absolute must. I have seen countless kitchens that worked with notes, Excel, or gut feeling, and I have seen how their daily lives changed once they digitized. <\/p>\n<p>For me, the most rewarding thing is when a kitchen manager says after a few months: &#8220;Klaus, you really made our lives easier.&#8221; That&#8217;s exactly what I work for every day, with my team, with our customers, with passion for better kitchen processes. <\/p>\n<p>So, if anyone is still hesitant to take the step: Go for it!
