Design a menu based on a target market, type of operation, and desired quality standards

When writing a menu, there are several steps to take.

Incorporate Priorities: Know guest demographics, area competition on similar menu items, profitability expectations, quality level, and know what your operating limitations are.
Consider Menu Categories: Will you highlight soups, salads, appetizers, entrees, desserts, beverages, specialty or featured items, all-of-these?
Determine number of items/category: Consider variety, temperature (cold/hot/room temperature), preparation method, texture, shape/size, flavor, color, composition, and balance.
Establish Quality Standards: Standardized recipes and product purchase specifications need to be written for each item. Standardized recipes will identify the types of ingredients within that menu item, amounts of each, and preparation method. Specification sheets define the quality requirements of each ingredient. Together, they’ll give you the tools to provide consistency in your offerings.
Write Descriptions: Good descriptions will influence your patron’s choices. Truth-in-menu issues arise from poorly written descriptions. for example, “Fresh Jumbo Gulf Shrimp” written for a Shrimp Scampi entree description cannot be made with frozen shrimp from Vietnam (largest shrimp importer to the US)

Today’s business environment requires leaders to have competency in designing organizations to effectively achieve strategic goals. In this task, you will choose an organizational structure that will positively affect a consulting firm’s ability to effectively achieve goals and explain your choice in relation to the four factors that affect organizational design. You will also be asked to evaluate the impact of an organizational structure on one of the consulting firm’s goals.

SCENARIO

You have decided to create a consulting business to address increasing market needs for sustainability and innovation in the community. You want to emphasize how businesses can make incremental changes in the workplace to achieve sustainable results that increase profitability and brand reputation. The mission of the company is to “facilitate sustainable social, economic, and environmental development opportunities for the good of businesses in the community.” Your goals for this company include the following:

• Be a mission-driven, for-profit organization that will create partnerships that result in sustainable changes for the community.

• Achieve a level of success so your consulting firm can raise your city’s ranking in the “Most Sustainable and Innovative Communities” list from the top 20% of all U.S. communities to the top 10%.

• Assess the sustainability and innovation needs of 30 businesses in the local community in the first year. You will then share the results of those assessments with all business stakeholders to generate feedback that will be used to develop and implement proposals for consulting.

• Hire three university students as part-time interns to help you develop an organizational structure.
