Networked gastronomy: Telekom digitizes quality controls

Europa-Park in Rust uses IoT solution in the new "Krønasår" hotel
Perform and document quality and hygiene checks digitally
More transparency in food processing

A good chef must be able to do more than just cook delicious dishes. The demands on him are manifold. In addition to good taste, the guest expects high quality ingredients. The legislator demands that he adheres to hygiene standards and documents them. The operator wants a sustainable use of resources. Chefs are now getting help for this from the Internet of Things (IoT). The "Check Cloud" solution digitizes inspection processes and documents their results. Seamlessly and in real time. It also provides reliable data about systems and their function. For example, whether cold storage rooms are working faultlessly. The Europa-Park theme park & adventure resort in Rust uses the solution. It is used in the gastronomy in the new 4-star superior hotel "Krønasår".

IoT solution puts an end to paperwork

Hygiene is the be-all and end-all in a kitchen. In general, the more extensive the gastronomic offer, the higher the requirements. In Germany, food safety regulations are based on the global hygiene concept "HACCP" (hazard analysis and critical control points). This means that those responsible must carry out checks at critical points and document the results. For example, what is the temperature of the chicken breast when it is delivered? At what temperature is it stored in the cold store? Were the containers properly cleaned after use? Many still use handwritten protocols or Excel lists for this.

This is much easier, faster and more reliable with the "Check Cloud" solution. It is a complete package with which companies can carry out and document inspection processes digitally. "Check Cloud" is based on the Telekom solution "Goods Compliance", which has been adapted for the special requirements of the food industry and gastronomy. "To this end, we are cooperating with the Max Maier Group, which has international experience in equipping commercial kitchens. In this way, we are combining the experience of both industries in Check Cloud," says Rami Avidan, who is responsible for the Internet of Things business at T-Systems.

Food quality always in view

Using sensors, hand-held measuring devices and checklists, kitchen staff record the required data, such as the temperature of the food. And they do so at freely definable checkpoints. All data flows in real time via the cloud into a clear online portal. There, they are graphically processed and documented. So the chef can see at a glance: Everything is in order. If not, the solution sounds the alarm.

Complete documentation of hygiene controls

Thanks to the IoT solution, the entire food processing becomes transparent. From the delivery of goods to storage and preparation to the serving of food. The chefs thus document seamlessly that they are complying with the regulations. In addition, they receive valuable information in real time about the condition of the food. In this way, they ensure the quality of the food and operate more sustainably.

Europa-Park uses the solution in the new hotel "Krønasår

"We make no compromises when it comes to quality. This applies to our attractions and hotels as well as to our restaurants. Digitalisation helps us to achieve the goals we have set ourselves and to comply with legal requirements," says Arne Weimann, Deputy Food & Beverage Director at Europa-Park Hotels. "Check Cloud convinced us functionally and in terms of data security." It will be used in the gastronomy of the new 4-star superior hotel "Krønasår". Europa-Park opened the new hotel on May 31. Two restaurants and a café offer space for over 1,300 guests at the same time.

Internorga Trade Fair CHECK CLOUD

CHECK CLOUD & Rieber at the Internorga -

the leading trade fair for the entire out-of-home market.

15 - 19 March 2019 in Hamburg

In cooperation with Rieber and T-Systems, CHECK CLOUD presents the new solutions for the organized reusable container system CHECK TRACE.

More efficiency, on the one hand, through high-quality, functional, combinable and standardised products and, on the other hand, through the connection to the CHECK CLOUD organisation platform via the easily retrofittable QR code on products or at checkpoints. In addition to the familiar and further optimised CHECK HACCP system with flexibly compiled checklists, the solution for the GN returnable container system CHECK TRACE will be presented live at the trade fair for the first time as a digital innovation. This enables the container checkout to be mapped using a fully automatic scanning process and the destination of the food to be defined.

CHECK CLOUD also offered an exclusive trade fair product bundle together with Rieber and Dr. Oetker Professional at the Internorga.

The bundle offers the customer an overall concept consisting of Rieber infrastructure K|POT®, GN cooking containers thermoplates® including lid variants , as well as perfectly coordinated selected Dr. Oetker Professional Food products and matching recipe suggestions and a free test access to the CHECK CLOUD, for transparent HACCP safety. The answer to successful and process-safe catering always and everywhere, regardless of staff and resources.

CHECK Services: Transparent food chain from the field to the plate

The CHECK CLOUD digitalization and organization system from CHECK Services allows the hygiene and temperature of food and meals to be digitally monitored and documented. This is intended to improve their quality, increase process efficiency and enable the traceability of reusable systems.

The manufacturer-independent platform developed by CHECK Services, T-Systems and other partners allows cold rooms and food transport containers to be equipped with a temperature monitoring system that documents the transport of food under their respective hygienic conditions. Cold rooms and transport boxes are equipped with temperature sensors that automatically send the current temperature data to the CHECK CLOUD Cockpit. In the case of manual measurements with the Bluetooth core temperature sensor, the recorded measured values are sent to the CHECK CLOUD app directly to the smartphone. Using QR codes, transparent traceability can be easily organised along the process chain from storage, preparation, preparation and transport to the serving of the food.

Digital monitoring of legal hygiene regulations

With CHECK MOBILE, restaurateurs can digitally prove compliance with the legally required Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) monitoring of temperature and hygiene. It replaces the previous paper-based documentation. CHECK MOBILE users can set up the HACCP monitoring points themselves within minutes by assigning QR codes. HACCP-relevant processes such as goods receipt, storage, preparation, transport and serving are thus digitally structured. The temperature and hygiene documentation at these monitoring points can then be carried out within seconds via app by scanning the QR code and assigning temperature measurements via Bluetooth core temperature sensor or by recording hygiene conditions. The documentation itself can be accessed via a central web interface. There, the results are systematically processed, irregularities are highlighted and overall reports are also made available as a print version.

Intelligent food monitoring with IoT

Further expansion stages of the CHECK product range will include the integration of automatic sensors and the exchange of process-relevant data with equipment manufacturers or ERP systems in the catering sector - as well as the integration of container tracking records in a practical process for setting up reusable cycles. T-Systems itself is responsible for the product implementation, ensuring above all IT Security and data protection in a German data center, as well as the communications infrastructure. This means that the data collected by the sensors or with the specially developed app can be securely transferred to the Cloud and processed, analyzed and made available there. T-Systems manages this information chain end-to-end and adapts it dynamically so that the food chain data can be linked with other data to form new services in the future. Max Maier's next idea: "We want guests in the canteen to be able to query the ingredients and allergens of every dish via an app and a QR code."

CHECK CLOUD Showroom

Physically and digitally combined, the CHECK CLOUD container in the urbanharbor shows innovative solutions for the food supply chain in cooperation with Rieber and T-Systems.

The individual silos along the value chain need to learn from each other and cooperate. Driven by the vision to disruptively reorganize this supply chain through a reusable system to counteract the plastic waste. This simultaneously creates the basic prerequisite for regional and seasonal nutrition.

The new product CHECK HACCP replaces analogue paperwork with a digital tool so that all quality-relevant data, such as temperature and hygiene, are available digitally at any time and anywhere. The equipment for the catering trade from Rieber or other manufacturers can be retrofitted with intelligent sensors to ensure complete documentation for the caterer and to inform him as soon as his food is outside the specified temperature values. This allows energy and cost saving potentials to be uncovered and processes to be optimized. In addition, the measurement data is no longer filed in analogue folders for 4 years, but is available on demand in the CHECK CLOUD.

With the customer's consent to evaluate this data, there is a cooperation with the high-performance computer center of the University of Stuttgart. This allows the collected data to be correlated with other data from a wide range of areas and analyzed. Using artificial intelligence, algorithms can now be used to develop scenarios in advance in order to optimally control processes. For example, the cooling temperature of food transport containers can be adjusted if the transport routes are analyzed too far in advance, in combination with the predicted outside temperature for the coming weeks. Or the rinse agent injection ratio of the washing lines in coordination with the food production plan.
