Live Impact Overview: see cost and CO₂e while you plan

Set targets for each kitchen and see cost, CO₂e, organic and local share against them in the menu planner, updated as you change dishes.

The menu you plan sets the food cost and the climate footprint of the week. Most kitchens see those figures afterwards, in a report. Live Impact Overview puts them in the menu planner, next to the dishes, while the week can still change.

Targets for each kitchen

Set the goals each kitchen is measured against: cost per portion, cost per day, CO₂e per procured kilo, and organic and local share. Switch each target on or off, so a kitchen tracks only what matters to it.

Impact metrics in the week view

Turn on Impact metrics in Menu planning and a bar above the week shows each figure against its target. Every day shows its food cost, and dishes that push a day over target are flagged Cost, CO₂e or Organic, so the chef knows which dish to look at.

The numbers update as you plan

Swap a dish and the day, the week and the targets recalculate straight away. Dishes are costed from current product prices, so the figure reflects what the menu costs now. [CLAIM: confirm with the product team that planned dishes use current product prices, and from which date]
