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?

Join The Food Institute on Wednesday, Aug. 5 at 2 pm ET to unravel the issue with David White, Principal, Solutions Consulting, iTradeNetwork.

In this webinar, White will make the case that data transparency is a cost control strategy, not just a reporting upgrade. The session examines how operators with complex distributor footprints are using connected, standardized data to enforce contract compliance, close the gap between what procurement negotiates and what units actually spend, and recover margin that previously disappeared into reconciliation backlogs.

Attendees will leave with a practical framework covering:
• 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
