Industrial catering operations feed hundreds of people in remote camps with daily headcounts that shift, supply chains that have to be planned a week out, and clients who bill by the meal. TMI builds the operating system that makes all three work together.
Camp headcount changes daily. Food waste from over-ordering and underbilling from inaccurate meal counts are constant margin leaks that compound across every camp every month.
When a crew rotation brings in 40 more workers than the client estimated, the kitchen scrambles and the invoice doesn't capture the extra meals. That gap represents real food cost and labor that never gets recovered.
Ordering food for a camp of 200 people based on the prior week's headcount leads to either waste or shortfall. Neither one is free - and over-ordering happens far more than under-ordering in most operations.
Counting meals served at each service period and reconciling against client headcount records at month end is a multi-hour manual process that's never perfectly accurate - and the inaccuracies tend to favor the client.
Built for industrial catering companies managing remote camps where headcount accuracy, food cost control, and per-meal billing are the difference between profitable and break-even.
Camp population logged daily with crew changes updated as they happen. Kitchen staff, supply planners, and client billing all work from the same current number - not last week's estimate.
Meals served logged at each service period with confirmation against scheduled headcount. Billing is built from verified meal counts - not estimated from the number of people who were supposed to be there.
Order quantities calculated from confirmed headcount and historical consumption rates per meal type. Over-ordering and shortfall both get reduced when the numbers driving the order are accurate.
Actual food cost per meal per camp tracked against budgeted cost. Camps running over target get flagged immediately - not discovered at month-end when the damage is already done.
Food safety logs, temperature records, and cleaning schedules completed digitally per service period. Regulatory inspections start with complete records - not a search through binders in the camp office.
Monthly invoices built from verified meal count records. Client billing disputes resolved with a complete daily log - not a debate about whose headcount number is right.
