ONLINE FOOD ORDERING SYSTEM

Chapter1

1.1 INTRODUCTION
Online food ordering is the process of ordering food from a website. The product can either
be food that has been specially prepared for direct consumption (such as vegetables straight from a
farm or garden, frozen meats, etc.) or food that has not been (such as direct from a certified home
kitchen, restaurant). The effort to create an online food ordering system aims to replace the manual
method of taking orders with a digital one. The ability to rapidly and correctly create order
summary reports whenever necessary is a key factor in the development of this project. The
potential of an online food ordering system is enormous. Any restaurant or fast food chain can use
this PHP project to keep track of customer orders. This project is simple, quick, and precise. There
is less disk space needed. MYSQL Server is used as the backbone by the online food ordering
system, eliminating the risk of data loss and ensuring data security. Customers have the option of
either having the food delivered or picked up. A customer starts by selecting the restaurant of their
choice, then scans the menu, picks an item, and then decides whether they want it delivered or
picked up. Then, when picking up the food, you can pay with cash at the restaurant or with a credit
card or debit card using the app or website. The customer is informed by the website and app about
the food's quality, how long it takes to prepare, and when it will be ready for pick-up or delivery.

1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT

The problem statement for an online food ordering system involves addressing issues
related to waiting queues in restaurants, the preference for online food delivery, and the need for an
efficient and user-friendly system. Customers seek a seamless experience to place orders, track
deliveries, and provide feedback on food products.
The system aims to enhance meal delivery services, maintain up-to-date customer
information, suggest restaurants based on user ratings, and improve overall quality. It also focuses
on offering transparency between customers and restaurants, providing nutritional information, and
catering to the increasing demand for healthy and affordable food options.
The system should facilitate easy access to home-cooked meals, track nutritional intake,
and ensure a smooth transaction process for all stakeholders involved.

5.1 CONCLUSION
Restaurant Management System is a web-based technology that aids the restaurant industry
in carrying out tasks effectively and efficiently. It aids in managing cash flow for
managers. Managers can view analytics data to assess company growth. The manager can
control orders and employee schedules by using this system. The full complement is a
restaurant management system. It provides access to the Online Order platform, third-party
connectors software, and comprehensive CRM solution, which together cover a sizable
portion of your restaurant's requirements. They are not the outdated hardware and software
sets for restaurants that were previously offered. They are the hottest things around,
smooth, manageable, inexpensive, and quick.
In the "Online Food Ordering Project," we made every effort to meet all the demands of
the restaurant. Because it is straightforward and adaptable, the project is successful. The
biggest benefit of my project is that it draws plenty of users because of its simplicity. A
novice user may operate it with ease. Any type of restaurant can utilize our software. By
automating meal ordering, billing, and inventory control, the restaurant management
system assists the restaurant manager in managing the restaurant more successfully and
efficiently. The system handles the transaction and stores the data produced. These data
will be used to create reports that assist the restaurant manager in making wise business
decisions.
For example, the manager can decide whether more waiters, delivery men, delivery carts,
and cooks are needed based on how many clients will be present during a specific time
period. When this project is finished, all security concerns will be resolved. Additionally, a
quick and secure authentication process will be used for record maintenance. Because it
automatically pulls information about a consumer from the database on subsequent visits,
data entry is quick and easy. As a result, our program will undoubtedly succeed in
replacing the antiquated manual way of storing secure information. The work plan also
specifies the specific front end and back end characteristics of the technology being used in
the project. Future project goals and its scope have been elaborated.
ONLINE FOOD ORDERING SYSTEM

5.2 FUTURE ENHANCEMENT

Each project should pay close attention to future development because it contains the
system's most recent features. It lessens software issues and defects. It develops a close
relationship with customers based on their comments or preferences. Developer will
incorporate certain dynamic elements that are briefly described below into my restaurant
management system.
Reporting module with real time mechanism.

• Modern architecture with smooth transitions.
