The new system has many advantages. First of all, it is very quick and accurate since its operation is computerized, the system had to be designed to be quick because customers want food promptly and sandwiches are not made until customers actually order them. As another advantage, the new system will lower food costs. Company officials believe that the old system’s batch-related cost of having to discard prepared food held too long in the warmer will be eliminated. Finally, since food is no longer held in a warmer, the quality should be raised even further.
