FACILITY PLANNING • Know objectives, goals, and basic functions of department • Menu and menu pattern • Purchasing system • Production and service system • Workload and personnel data • Quality standards
SPACE ALLOCATION • Profit vs non-profit • Dining space > heaviest customer lead at any time > speed of service > menu variety > length of serving period > space allocation per seat • Production and service space > Initial: based on number of beds – 20-30sq. Ft./bed > Later: menu, purchasing system, production system, service system
PATIENT SERVICE SET-UP • Type of tray service • Number of patients served • Menu variety for regular and modified diets
STORAGE • Menu – market form of food purchased most important • Stock level required • Frequency of delivery • Dry storage • Refrigerated and low-temp frozen • Receiving and inspection of deliveries
SPACING • Equipment = 30% of space • Work areas, aisles, space for cleaning and ease of operation = 70% • Width of main aisle = 60” • Width of aisle for mobile carts = 50”
EQUIPMENT SELECTION • Menu is basis for determining needs • Performance • Materials, gauge and finish of metals • Sanitation and safety (NSF, UL, US Dept. of Health and Human Services)
LAYOUT • Work centers – smallest area where related tasks are performed • Work areas that allow use of two hands most efficient • U shaped work areas discourage through traffic • Function • Volume to be prepared • Number of employees • Kind and amount of equipment
CONCEPT OF FLOW • Most direct and quickest rout without criss-crossing, backtracking, interference, or delay • Functions proceed in a direct, straight forward sequence • Smooth, rapid production and service, minimum of time spent by workers • Eliminate delay and storage in processing and serving • Ensure minimum handling of materials and tools, minimum worker attention for equipment • Maximum utilization of space • Quality control at all critical points • Minimum cost of production
FLOW • Work aisles separate from traffic aisles • RECEIVINGSTORINGPREPARINGCOOKINGDISTRIBUTING SERVING
OTHER FACTORS • Efficient use of utilities • Efficient use of equipment • Efficient use of personnel • Safety sanitation • Environmental factors: lighting temperature noise
