About This Webinar
Most operators have more supply chain data than they can use. The problem is not volume: the data arriving from distributors, suppliers, and back-of-house systems was never designed to connect - and disconnected data does not protect margin, regardless of how much of it exists. How can foodservice operators adapt?

The Food Institute welcomed David White, Principal, Solutions Consulting at iTradeNetwork, to discuss how foodservice operators can turn data transparency into a practical cost control strategy.

During the webinar, White explored how operators with complex distributor networks are using connected, standardized data to improve contract compliance, close the gap between negotiated pricing and actual spend, and recover margin that may otherwise be lost in reconciliation processes.

Attendees learned:
• How to identify where disconnected data is creating cost exposure across your operation
• What connected data infrastructure enables that spend dashboards alone cannot
• How leading operators are translating data transparency into measurable cost outcomes
