Value pricing- a pricing strategy used by businesses to charge products and services at a rate they believe consumers are willing to pay
Money, raw materials, time, equipment, energy (utilities), facilities, and personnel, together with the necessary information, are the inputs into the system. The work that is performed, known as operations, transforms the inputs (such as raw material) into outputs (such as finished products or services). Transformation of these inputs into outputs takes place in the functional subsystems shown in Figure 2.4. Inputs, transformations, and outputs may be thought of as the Main Street of the foodservice system.
The outputs should be in line with the mission, goals, and objectives of the organization. The concept of equifinality means that outputs may be achieved in a variety of ways. A simple example of this would be good-quality convenience products versus producing menu items from raw ingredients in-house. The outputs provide the information on how the operations worked or failed, or how they should be changed or modified. This information is known as feedback and provides management with data to initiate corrective measures to restore equilibrium.
Controls, management, and memory have an impact on all parts of the system and are, therefore, shown as an umbrella over the other parts of the system (see Figure 2.3). Controls include the internal plans made by the organization, contracts, and laws and regulations that apply to the operation. Management performs various functions in order to achieve the mission of the organization. Management will be discussed in more detail in Chapters 13–18. Memory is the systems term to include all records of past performance that may be used to improve future effectiveness. An organization is also an open system that is influenced by and interacts regularly with external forces in its surrounding environment. These forces include various regulatory agencies, customers and other constituents, competitors, suppliers, social and economic conditions, and climate. These external forces affect practices within the organization; conversely, the organization has an effect on the forces i
