Big Dave Ostrander's FoodCost Pro 2 Software

Food cost calculation and menu engineering analysis to help make a restaurant more profitable. FoodCost Pro can be used alone or with Point of Success POS software.

Big Dave Ostrander created the original FoodCost Pro to help his consulting clients understand the details of their food cost and the relationship of portion control to their restaurant's profitability. Point of Success developers worked closely with Big Dave to completely rework FoodCost Pro to improve its usability and add great new features to make the software even more useful!

FoodCost Pro is designed for use in any type of restaurant and has shortcut features that make it easy to use in pizzerias.

Enter ingredients and their prices

Grab your supplier invoices and enter each ingredient you purchase. No matter what you serve or how you purchase food, ingredient costs are easy to enter. Stored with each ingredient is the vendor, package size and usable quantity.

Updating ingredient costs as they change is equally simple. Ingredient cost changes are made in a spreadsheet-style window from supplier invoices.

Create recipes for each item you serve

Using the ingredients already entered in FoodCost Pro, create recipes for each item on your menu. If FoodCost Pro is used with Point of Success, your product list can be imported to create the entree list automatically.

As ingredient costs change, entree costs are automatically recalculated to give you up-to-the-minute cost information.

Recipes can be printed from FoodCost Pro to help the kitchen with preparation and portion control.

Analyze combinations and promotions

FoodCost Pro can calculate costs for promotional items and combinations. Learn to create promotions that are attractive to customers and profitable for your restaurant.

Items from the Entree list are grouped into a combination to calculate the cost of promotional items and coupons.

Menu engineering made easy

Menu engineering is the analysis of the popularity and profitability of the items you serve. Selling more of your popular and profitable dishes help your restaurant become more profitable.

Enter the quantity and total selling price for each entree sold in a period. If you use FoodCost Pro with Point of Success, this sales information can be automatically imported. Print the Menu Engineering Analysis report to determine the popularity and profitability of each item on the menu.

The result of menu engineering is that featuring and promoting the most popular and profitable items on your menu will help improve your restaurant's profitability!

Works with Point of Success software

FoodCost Pro exchanges information with Point of Success POS software to make using the program faster and easier. Import entrees from Point of Success, import sales information from Point of Success, and export food cost information to Point of Success. FoodCost Pro is also designed to work well in restaurants with another POS system or no POS system.
