The customers may order with the waiter and at that time the waiter will have a handheld tablet that they would be able to submit the order and not have to go to different POS stations to enter the order or generate any receipts. This app is beneficial to all restaurant owners as that ensures quality but also ensures that all items are entered in the POS and all inventory is accounted for.

Outsourcing these two very crucial parts would allow us to focus on the functionality of the application and maintain its performance.

We need to ensure that the data is secure and that the individuals that maintain the data center are familiar with the system and can ensure that there will be no issues. We need to ensure our clientele that all outages and maintenance will be done outside of business hours to ensure that their businesses are not affected by any of the outages. We also need to ensure that if there are any outages that unexpectedly happen that they would be in constant communication and take quick action so that we can stay in communication with our customers to inform them when the system would be back up or and what happened to cause the system to shut down temporarily. Although we need to ensure that we can prevent any of this to our customers we need to hire the right data center that would meet our mission statement.

We want a fixed contract with a certain amount of space as that we can always expand and add on at the back end if our business grows.
