Production
The day's meal data becomes a production list the kitchen can start from immediately.
KO Technologies
Operational technology for school meal providers.
KitchenOps connects production, packing, dispatch and delivery in one operational picture — so every team in the building works from the same day.

The operational day does not wait for anyone.
School meals run to a fixed service window. Production, packing, dispatch and delivery happen in sequence, in a few hours, across several teams — and every handover is a chance for something to go missing. KitchenOps is built for that reality rather than for reporting after it.

One screen the kitchen can read from across the room.
Kitchen Live shows what is queued, what is running, what is being checked and what is complete. The same state is visible to packing, dispatch and the office, so a change in the kitchen is never a surprise further down the day.

The workflow
From production to delivery.
01
Production
What to make, and how much.
02
Packing
Boxes, labels and quantities.
03
Dispatch
Runs, loads and handover.
04
Delivery
Routes, stops and confirmation.
Four stages. One operational picture.
Each stage has its own team, its own pressures and its own definition of done. KitchenOps keeps them on the same information without asking anyone to work differently.

Packing
Boxes and quantities stated per school and group, so packing can be checked.
Dispatch
Runs, loads and handover recorded before the vehicle leaves the building.
Delivery
Routes and stops on a phone, with each drop confirmed as it happens.
The company
KO Technologies
An Irish software business focused on operational technology — the systems behind the physical work of making, moving and delivering something.
Our first product is KitchenOps, built for school meal providers and developed directly with the teams who run the service. We stay deliberately narrow: one sector, one workflow, and only what the operation actually needs.
More about KO Technologies
Focused
One sector and one workflow, from production to delivery.
Operational
Built for the people doing the work, not for reporting for its own sake.
Independent
Works alongside the ordering and registration systems already in place.
