See what BWA Horizon could save your restaurant — your numbers, our math.

Plug in your weekly procurement labour, food waste, stockouts, and margin leakage. We'll show you the weekly, monthly, and yearly savings — and how long until BWA Horizon pays for itself.

Procurement labour

Hours per week spent ordering, counting, and matching invoices.

What's counted

Time spent placing orders, counting inventory, and reconciling invoices, multiplied by your hourly cost and the labour-recovery rate. Does NOT count owner/manager strategic time or kitchen-side staff.

Waste & stockouts

Dollars walking out the back door each week.

What's counted

Direct food waste (spoilage, over-prep) and lost revenue from stockouts (incidents × avg item value × avoidance rate). Does NOT count brand damage from repeat stockouts.

Note: stockouts overlap somewhat with the labour bucket (hours spent firefighting them). If you want a more conservative estimate, dial one of the two down in Advanced assumptions.

Margin leakage

Share of food cost lost to overpaying or off-strategy ordering.

What's counted

Share of monthly food cost lost to overpaying suppliers, off-strategy ordering, or missed flyer deals — multiplied by the margin-recovery rate. Does NOT count menu-engineering wins (those are a separate workstream).

How we calculated this

Each savings number is your input times a default multiplier (adjustable in Advanced assumptions):

  • labour = (procurement + inventory + invoice hours) × hourly cost × labour rate
  • waste = weekly food waste × waste-reduction rate
  • stockouts = (monthly incidents ÷ 4) × item value × stockout-avoidance rate
  • margin = (monthly food cost × leakage % ÷ 4) × margin-recovery rate
  • yearly = weekly × (365 / 7) — calendar-accurate; monthly = yearly / 12

Defaults reflect what we typically see in Ottawa SMB restaurants after 60 days on the platform. Open Advanced assumptions to tune them for your operation.
