In September 2024, Bott introduced the mobile ordering and payment platform sizzly to digitize the catering ordering, payment and billing processes for its employees in all four plants. The result? Significant time savings, greater transparency and happier employees - a complete success for bott!
Before the introduction of sizzly , the ordering and payroll processes at bott were very paper-based and time-consuming. In total, the HR department invested up to 5 working hours per month in accounting - without the additional processing time for queries.
Handwritten order lists had to be submitted to official collection points in the respective factories and buildings by a certain deadline.
The canteen staff collected the individual order lists from the collection points after the deadline and evaluated them to create an overall order for the respective location.
All orders could now be sent to the caterer by the canteen staff.
Collected orders and spontaneous purchases, such as drinks, were recorded in the canteen in new lists for each employee.
The problem: there was no comparison of whether orders and collections matched.
Based on the purchase lists from the canteens, the HR department prepared the monthly statement for each employee for payroll accounting.
Due to a lack of overview, there were many queries from employees regarding payroll accounting to the HR department.
The entire process was digitized with the introduction of sizzly :
Employees order their meals directly via the app, with allergens, prices and allowances visible at all times. The weekly meal plan of various stores is available digitally.
Employees have an overview of all orders placed and can manage their orders themselves and cancel them in the event of illness.
Billing now only takes around 20 minutes per month for all plants - queries and complaints are a thing of the past.
bott nutzt alle drei Apps der sizzly Catering Cloud und schöpft damit den vollen Funktionsumfang aus.
von Frühstück und Mittagessen über die sizzly Ordering App, sowohl für Warenangebote des Contract Caterers als auch vom Unternehmen selbst erstellte Warenangebote an allen 8 Verkaufsstellen
for the receipt of all transactions, optionally with digital creation of hospitality receipts
are integrated and can be used to collect orders and pay for impulse purchases
via integrated payroll deduction for internal employees and via in-app credit system for external employees
Individual subsidization of the range of goods, depending on user roles and article types
Employee orders are automatically transmitted to the caterer's integrated merchandise management system.
The weekly meal plan including all item information is synchronized directly from the ERP system into the sizzly app
The articles from other external stores, such as a supplying bakery, as well as their prices and availability are easily created and managed in the Canteen App.
By scanning the employee chip, the canteen staff can open the current day's order, issue the items ordered and complete the order.
With the cash register module, spontaneous purchases can be made in the canteen.
The HR department can create new users, manage them or simply remove them. User roles can also be assigned, for example for mapping grant structures.
NFC-Mitarbeiterchips können über ihre ID in der Backoffice App mit Usern verknüpft werden.
Die Backoffice App stellt Auswertungen und Statistiken zu Bestellungen und Transaktionen zum Export zur Verfügung.
Die Personalabteilung hat in der Backoffice App eine Übersicht über Bestellungen, Transaktionen, Guthaben, Rechnungen und User. So kann auch unternehmensinterner Support gewährleistet werden.
Self-order terminals are also available for employees who do not work on a computer at bott, for example in production. Employees can use the wall-mounted tablets to log in to the sizzly app with their employee ID cards and place or manage orders. This gives every employee access to the app, regardless of whether they choose to use it on their private devices.
These following factors made the introduction of the sizzly app at bott a complete success. Thanks to clear, successful communication and committed managers within the company who oversaw the introduction of the sizzly app, bott was able to provide enormous support for a smooth introduction, as employees also need a contact person within the company itself, in addition to sizzly support. We would therefore like to take this opportunity to thank bott for the great cooperation.
