I've been looking high and low for templates of forms and procedures that I can use with my kitchen staff. I want to make my kitchen more efficient and ensure that all gets done on time and correctly.
Any suggestions out there? It's frustrating as I don't know how to create and implement appropriate tasks/prep sheets for my kitchen staff.
Any advice is welcome.

Yohann,

GigaChef has some forms you might find useful. Look in the section titled The Trade.
One thing you won't find out there as a templete or spreadsheet is a Kitchen Equipment Log and Action Plan.

I work for a commercial kitchen equipment parts & service company and am always surprised at how many restaruanteurs do not have some sort of gameplan when it comes to their ktichen equipment. For instance, many times the managers do not know if their equipment is still under warranty or not and we end up with an invoice headache.

If you operate a unit with high turnover, you might get managers that hold on to their old maintenance relationships rather than using ones that you've established. Worse yet, the managers might call out for service for simply things like a breaker that tripped (e.g. leaving the freezer breaker off while putting the truck away).

Take the time to put all your equipment manuals together and keep them in one place. Add to this all your important maintenance contacts and a reference sheet of all your equipment that included the model and serial numbers.

Best of luck out there. If you want to know more, I have linked a forum post from our website that discusses Equipment Action Plans.

Best of luck!
Dan
