Mobile Kitchen Display System

Easily operate your Mobile Kitchen in Pickup Mode using Untether Technologies’ Mobile Kitchen Display System (KDS).  First setup as many pickup locations as you like using Untether Technologies Admin Portal – each pickup location will outline its service hours and location, and all of this information is synchronized to your Mobile Ordering App for customer ordering.  Customers can then place an order at any of these pickup locations, selecting an estimated arrival time – the order will then be set to the appropriate Mobile Kitchen for fulfillment. 

Once a pickup order is placed, Untether Technologies’ Cloud Server takes over: accurately predicting a customer’s actual arrival time at the selected pickup location, factoring in weather, traffic, and even if a customer stops traveling temporarily ahead of picking up their order.  This estimated arrival time is synchronized to Untether’s Mobile KDS, allowing the physical production of the customer’s order to be aligned to their actual arrival.

Customer arrival times are conveniently displayed on each order ticket in the KDS.  When it’s time to prepare a customer order, orders can be added to the hot queue (manually or automatically) for order printing, production, and staging just before the customer’s arrival.  The Mobile KDS has integrated customer order staging capabilities, allowing prepared orders to be placed in automatically-generated staging locations in the Mobile Kitchen, allowing for increased delivery capacity and easy distribution upon customer arrival.

Delivery Mode works similarly to Pickup Mode.  First, setup as many delivery areas as you like using Untether Technologies’ Admin Portal: set service hours for each delivery area, and then outline the geofenced delivery area from which customers can order.  All of this information is then synchronized to your Mobile Ordering App allowing customers to select their preferred delivery time and location, and place a delivery order: this delivery order will then be sent to the appropriate Mobile Kitchen for fulfillment.

Once a delivery order is placed, the Untether Technologies Cloud Server manages interactions between the mobile app, the truck-based Kitchen Display System, and Untether’s Routing Optimization System to dispatch a Mobile Kitchen to prepare and deliver a freshly-made order to the delivery location.  The Mobile KDS provides all routing required to get to the delivery location efficiently as well as order ticket printing, ordering staging, and the ability to change scheduled delivery times for customers.
