Energy, Utilities & Facilities Management for Food Businesses

8 products listed

Introduction

Keeping heating, refrigeration and cooking equipment running costs money in two ways: the energy bill and the repair bill. Software in this category tackles both across many sites. Energy management systems connect thermostats, lighting and refrigeration to a cloud dashboard, so a head office can spot equipment running wastefully and adjust settings remotely. Maintenance and repair software gives each site a way to report a broken item, then tracks the work order and the contractor invoice. Some products are broader operations tools that include a maintenance module. Most are aimed at chains, and most are sold on quotation.

Who needs it

Restaurant chains and multi-site groups that spend heavily on repairs or energy, and whose managers currently phone contractors themselves. It becomes worth considering when repair costs and bills differ widely between sites and nobody has a single record. Small single sites usually manage with a contractor's phone number.

What to look for

  • Energy control or repair tracking. GridPoint and SiteSage monitor and control equipment. Ecotrak, ResQ, OpenWrench and 86 Repairs manage repair requests and work orders.

  • Vendor manages the repair. 86 Repairs describes its team checking warranty and dispatching a provider, while software-only tools leave the phone calls with you.

  • Sensors or gateways installed. GridPoint and SiteSage use their own hardware at each site, whereas OpenWrench and Ecotrak are mostly software. Ask about installation time and cost.

  • Free entry tier. Ecotrak lists a free Build tier for up to 10 locations. Most others in the category are quote only.

  • Wider operations coverage. Xenia and Mapal OS add checklists, scheduling or inspections to maintenance. Choose these if you want fewer separate tools.
