Provided with the Combi, our foodservice department will exceed its goals of quality assurance and fiscal responsibility. Its use will capture the facility's strategic initiatives to deliver exceptional experiences for our residents and staff. Problem Seven Oaks Long Term Care facility, located in the heart of downtown Burlington, is a one hundred-bed resident facility and community outreach center for seniors. Over the years it has set the standard in senior's care in the community. It has consistently achieved its vision statement to deliver exceptional experiences for the residents and staff. The facility's foodservice department's mission is to exceed the standard in quality, and service, which of late it has struggled with. The main reason for not meeting the standard is aging equipment especially the seventeen-year-old convection oven. A recent audit of its performance indicates it is no longer financially feasible to operate and due for replacement because of: Maintenance and Repairs Over the last two years there's been a steady increase in maintenance repairs, which has resulted in an increase of twenty seven percent to the department. Numerous thermal recalibrations and most recently the replacement of the door's spring locking system have exceeded the budget allowances. Operation Cost Fluctuations in the oven's cooking and holding temperatures have caused a 12% increase in food cost due to loss and spoilage. The oven's continuous use has measurably decreased it efficiency and power conservation by thirty percent. Based on the age and the current condition of the oven, the costs of maintenance and operation will only increase with time. Customer Satisfaction Inadequate cooking and holding temperatures have resulted in poor quality products, increased resident complaints, and revenue loss. 3 Benefits of the Rational Combi The Rational provides measurable benefits for the operator, facility, and resident. There will be immediate short-term and long-term gains for the facility. Within two years it will deliver an increase in profit and savings to pay for its original cost. The benefits are: Labour Cost It will allow for a savings of .6 FTE's per week or $1,460.76 dollars with an additional saving from efficient preproduction, unsupervised overnight cooking, and quick daily maintenance and service. Food Cost It's precise cooking technology will provide an approximate 22% percent savings in raw material and 95% in added cooking fats. Energy Conservation the Combi's seven different cooking modes will replace the need for multitasking and acquisition of another conventional kitchen equipment. A savings of $906.00 dollars will be gained per year in energy costs and an additional 2% per year when used continuously. Customer Satisfaction the Combi's seven modes of cooking applications and precise automated cooking will improve the quality and variety of food. It will minimize the chance of human error and guaranteeing the resident's satisfaction. Health and Safety the Combi will minimize the possibility of workplace accidents and human intervention during cooking and cleaning procedures. The automated HACCP logging system will reduce manual monitoring, recording and interpreting critical control points during cooking. Methodology Through benchmark comparisons and contrasts with another leading manufacture's model the Combi was evaluated for its efficiency, ease of operation, operating costs, safety features and ability to recoup its purchase price. A plan of its quick installation and in-depth training has been detailed within the report. Its installation will minimally disrupt the residents and flow of work in the facility. The ease and safety of cleaning and maintaining its performance has been encapsulated in a maintenance plan. rinse Hand shower power wash hose Manual clean with automated cycle Descaling automated 3 settings for continuous descale cycle Spray hose for rinse cycle hot water feed nonelectrical powered Manual clean cycle Descaling automated 2 settings for continuous descale cycle 3 Computer Technology Accessories with Purchase Accessories with Purchase Deliming bottle and pump assembly included 5 settings for cleaning cabinet 3 separate programs IQT technology using probe and profile logic systems 7 customized setting for roasting browning Program Library containing 8 factory settings for cooking modes CalcDiagnosis system descaling indicator Delta T cooking technology for energy conservation IQT sensory technology for internal probe temperatures HACCP logging technology with Combi Link software Microprocessor for self cooking panel digital readouts and monitoring Vario Steam technology for automated vapour quenching system Deliming bottle and pump assembly included optional at additional cost 1 setting for cabinet cleaning cycle with auto dry Digital readout available at additional cost Automated descaling system with auto indicators optional at additional cost Delta T cooking technology for energy conservation internal probe at additional cost.

The IQT technology replaces the need for all other cooking appliances such as convection ovens, ranges, steamers and deep fryers. The Combi ovens efficient operation system and built in energy conservation features provide an immediate return in savings. Safety Features The Clean Jet's innovative circulation system ensures optimal hygiene, health protection, and reduced water consumption. The patented CalcDiagnosis system automatically monitors lime scale levels and eliminates lime buildup with no need for buying or maintaining expensive water softening equipment. The automated HACCP logging continuously records critical control point information with Combi Link transferware. The automatic logging ensures health protection and eliminates timely monitoring, recording, and manual interpretation. Resident Satisfaction The digital microprocessor uses one control to provide seven different cooking modes. The different cooking modes provide limitless culinary variety. The Self Cooking technology eliminates flavour and odour transfer, even when there are different products cooked at the same time. The nutritional value in foods is preserved ensuring the retention of vitamins and minerals. The outstanding consistency along with optimal quality cooked food will inspire the resident's confidence and satisfaction day after day. Challenges The Rational combi involves a more complex lengthy installation and training period in comparison to the other model. Although over the long term the costs for installation and training will be returned in profit savings. The operation of the Rational model is easy although it involves a more complicated lengthy training program for the kitchen staff. The intensive training program is included in the purchase. The trained will ensure its performance and maintenance is optimized. The cost of cleaning and descaling chemicals will increase budget allowances although the labour costs will counterbalance the offset in costs. 8 Installation Plan The removal of the existing convection oven and pending installation of the Rational Combi will be in accordance with an installation time schedule (see appendix). The existing oven is central to the ongoing business and a necessity for the daily preparation of all hot foods. Therefore, two contingency plans have been developed to address the need for the oven during installation and any prolonged delays in its installation. During installation an alternative menu plan will alleviate any demand for the use of the oven for food preparation. The alternative menu plan will be put into effect the day of and the following day if necessary. It will utilize other pieces kitchen equipment to produce a suitable menu for the residents (see appendix). In the event of a prolonged delay in installation an emergency contingency menu plan will be activated. The emergency contingency menu plan will be in place for the duration of the installation and until it's fully operational. Power interruptions have been accounted for during installation by careful planning prior to installation. All necessary electrical work was completed during the twelve days prior to installation. The power interruption the day of installation will be minimal with only a thirty-minute period of interruption. The interruption will take place after lunch service during off peak times for kitchen preparation. Maintenance Plan Maintenance for the Combi is streamlined and can be easily performed by trained facility staff. The required maintenance for the Combi has been divided into two distinct categories. One category represents the work to be completed by certified Rational technicians. The second category addresses maintenance to be performed by in house by trained staff. Rational staff will conduct the maintenance training the following day of installation. The required maintenance performed by Rational technicians is categorized by service faults indicated on the Combi's display panel (see appendix). Rational customer service support center and local certified technicians are available seven days a week. A facility maintenance plan has been developed to include all necessary service to be performed by the facility's authorized staff (see appendix). The facilities maintenance and kitchen staff is to be trained by Rational technicians during the training session as part of the purchase plan. The maintenance plan has been divided into two categories maintenance as required and daily cleaning and maintenance. 6
