Curriculum Development for Food Production Operations Teaching for the Hospitality Industry: A Systems Framework

Abstract

A systems framework for food production systems is posited in order to enable comparisons to be made with production operations outside the catering industry. By comparing “Cook Chill” and “Fast Food” systems it is seen that cellular production has been adopted. Other operations management techniques can similarly be applied.
