Software integration with FoodPro® enables higher ed administrators to better track dining purchases, manage inventory and costs
Heartland Payment Systems’ Campus Solutions division has integrated its point-of-sale software with FoodPro®, a full-service food production, planning and control system offered by Aurora Information Systems. As such, campuses can now tie their back-end menu management and nutritional information to customer purchasing data for more effective planning and control of their dining operations.
“This integration gives campus administrators valuable business intelligence,” said Fred Emery, vice president and general manager, Heartland Campus Solutions. “This enhanced information enables more accurate and timely purchasing; the reduction of waste and associated costs; the ability to boost revenue by selling more of the most popular menu items; and better customer satisfaction through consistent quality and better service. Overall, it provides the framework for a more productive operation.”
Heartland’s suite of campus products ― including the multi-functional Campus OneCard ― enables colleges and universities to increase convenience for their communities by providing a quick, flexible payment method for dining and other key services, as well as access control and more. The campus solutions offering ― complete with Heartland’s card processing, online payments and check management solutions ― also helps schools streamline operations, significantly reduce operating expenses and generate additional revenue by capitalizing on everyday purchases.
