The Business Problem
Paper ticket orders were lost during peak dinner rushes, causing kitchen delays and incorrect order billing.
Technical Obstacles
- 01.Instant WebSocket order syncing between POS terminals and Kitchen Display screens.
Engineering & Architecture
How we designed, built, and secured the solution.
System Architecture
Next.js frontend connected to Node.js WebSocket gateways for sub-100ms order ticket updates.
Planning & Design
Phase 1: Restaurant floor plan mapping and kitchen station workflow analysis.
Design: Touchscreen POS interface optimized for fast table selection and custom modifier ordering.
Development & Testing
Sprints: Rapid 3-month development with live kitchen hardware testing.
QA: Stress testing WebSocket servers under simulated peak weekend order traffic.
Security & Scale
Sec: Role-based cashier permissions preventing unauthorized bill edits or voided orders.
Scale: Local station caching ensuring orders register even during temporary internet drops.
The Delivered Solution
Reduced order-to-kitchen transmission time to zero, improving table turnover rate by 25%.
Core Features Implemented
Touchscreen POS Billing
Real-Time Kitchen Display System (KDS)
Recipe Ingredient Inventory Depletion
Multi-Branch Reporting
Lessons Learned
