MAIN BODY
P1. Range of difference food supply
There are different types of food services which are being provided by the restaurant to
the consumers. These different services which are being provided by Scarlett Green includes
many different types of food services which are as follows-
 Themed food service- this is a type of service which is being provided by Scarlett Green
in order to attract a majority of the consumers. This themed food services means that the
restaurant sets a particular theme and the whole arrangement is kept keeping in mind that
particular theme only. This may be like a particular colour or cuisine and many other
different themes.
 Conference and event- this is another food service which is being provided by Scarlett
Green and in this they organize conference and event for business and other interested
people as well. Under this service Scarlett Green provide the facility of arranging
conference for business.
 Casual dining- this is another major facility which is provided by Scarlett Green which
involves serving moderately priced food in a casual ambiance (Radwan, 2020). This type
of service in more convenient and informal and much friendlier as compared to fine
dining.

 Fine dining- this is the service provided by Scarlett Green under which the full service is
provided including the complete meal course, décor, high quality material and others.
For the management of the food safety the most essential thing for Scarlett Green is to
ensure that the supply chain of the food is effective (Galli, 2018). The major reason for this is
that if the supply chain will not be much effective then the material will not be provided on time
and food will not be prepared on time. For this Scarlett Green makes the use of farm to fork
supply chain and the major players of this chain are being discussed in following points-
 Farmer-maximum of the food material is being provided by the agriculture only. Hence
the first participant in the supply chain is the farmers who grows the material and then
supplies it to further participant. The major role of this stakeholder is to grow the food for
the consumption of further people.
 Processor- under this stage the food produced by farmer is being processed and this is
done by keeping in mind the freshness, convenience and nutrition of the food products.
Under this stage the raw material is being processed and converted in products which are
of utility to other participant.
 transportation and storage- this is the further stage in the supply chain of the food
wherein the processed food is being transported and supplied to the place where it is
converted in finished goods. Here the major stakeholder is the companies dealing in the
transportation.
 Consumer- this is the final stage wherein the finished product is being provided to the
consumers for the final consumption. Under this stage the stakeholders are the consumer
who have come to the restaurant in order to have some food and satisfy their needs.
P2. Principles of effective procurement and sourcing
For the effective making of the food products by Scarlett Green the most essential thing
is that procuring the material in proper and effective manner. The major reason for this is that
when the raw material will be procured on time and in appropriate manner then the finished
product will be made on time (Manning, Luning and Wallace, 2019). For getting success Scarlett
Green need to focus on procurement management and the sources through which resources can
be procured. For procuring the material Scarlett Green need to focus on following principles-

 The major thing to be checked is the quality of the material which the supplier will be
providing. For this the restaurant can check credibility of the supplier that whether they
are providing better quality material or not. If the credibility is high, then this means that
the working of the supplier is good (Panghal and et.al., 2018).
 Further another major principle for procuring the material is that the Scarlett Green must
analyse the profit opportunity among the different types of the supplier. This means that
there are many different types of the supplier and before selecting any one Scarlett Green
must conduct a cost benefit analysis in order to find the best supplier.
In addition to this with procurement the sourcing consideration are also very important for the
company in order to manage the working in proper and effective manner. These sourcing
consideration for Scarlett Green are as follows-
 The most important thing is the money that is the money which is being levied on the
procurement of the raw material for serving to the consumers.
 Another major consideration is the after sales service as if the supplier is not providing
good and effective after sales service then it is not for company to procure material from
such suppliers.
 Another major sourcing consideration is the payment method which the supplier is being
providing on the material being purchased from the suppliers.
All the different types of approaches and the procurement of the material assist the
business in proper management of the business and this enhances the effectiveness of business.
Hence, for Scarlett Green it is essential to manage the procurement in effective and efficient
manner. The major reason for this is that if the material will be managed on time then this will
result in the better making of the finished products which will attract the consumers and as a
result of this the sales of restaurant will increase.
P3. Application of different types of analytical tools
For the success of the Scarlett Green the most essential aspect is the management of
services and the use of strategies which assist the restaurant in managing its services (Dzwolak,
2019). This is particularly because of the reason that the management strategies provide a
guidance to the company and employees to manage their services in better and effective manner.
These management tools are as follows-

Value chain analysis- this is a model which assist the company in managing and
analysing the internal activities of the company. This model will help Scarlett Green in
understanding the fact that how the working adds value in the company and its operations. The
value chain analysis suggest that Scarlett Green can divide its business activities in two that is
primary activities and support activities (Manning, 2017). The primary activities of Scarlett
Green involve the creation and delivery of product to the consumers. These activities further
involve the activities like the operation which involves making of food for the consumer and
their consumption. Further another primary activity involved is the inbound and outbound
logistics along with marketing and sales service. These are the primary activity of which Scarlett
Green need to follow in order to manage the working of the company. Further in addition to this
the other activity is the support activity which the company need to manage and maintain. These
support activities include the activities and function like infrastructure, HRM, procurement,
technology development and many other activities. All these activities are important for the
Scarlett Green to manage and maintain in proper and effective manner. If the company manages
all these activities, then this will result in increase in efficiency and performance of the company
to a great extent.
Porter 4 corner model- this is another major model which involves the analysis of the
strategies of the competitors. The major reason for using this model is that this assist in getting a
view that what strategies the competitors is using and how. This model has four aspects on which
the strategy of the company can be made and examined. The four corner of this model are the
drivers, current strategy, management assumption and the capabilities. Under this model the first
stage is to identify the motivation of the competitor as this will assist Scarlett Green in
knowledge that which factors motivates the competitors behind making the strategies. The next
stage is to identify the possible action which the competitors can take in order to achieve the
business objectives. The next stage is to identify the trend of the company and compare it with
the competitors that how they are using the strategies within the business (Rajkovic and et.al.,
2017). This model will assist the company in managing the business and its strategies in such a
manner that this will increase the knowledge of Scarlett Green and then they can manage the
work in effective manner as compared to the competitors.
Along with these management approaches it is also essential for the restaurant to
effectively make use of the marketing of the business in highly competitive market. Effective

marketing strategy will assist the company in managing the competition in proper way and this
promote the services in market.
Further in addition to this it is the responsibility of Scarlett Green to manage the human
resource as well of the company. The major reason underlying this fact is that if human resource
of company will not be good then customer experience will be low (Chen and et.al., 2020). For
this Scarlett Green need to hire effective employees who can manage the work in proper and
efficient manner. Along with this it is responsibility of management of restaurant to optimally
allocate all resources in such a manner that it is utilised to its fullest capacity.
P4. Evaluating different management practices and justified recommendation for supporting
management practices
From the above evaluation it is clear that the use of management strategies is very
important for the success of the restaurant. Thus, for this the most essential aspect of the business
success is the use of management strategies.
 For the effective management practices, it is advisable to company that they must
continuously research within the market and industry with help of PESTLE model and
the Porter five forces model. This will be assistive for the company in order to manage
the changes in the external environment and then try to implement these changes within
the business.
 In addition to this it is advisable to Scarlett Green to time to time analyse their internal
capability of the business with help of SWOT model. This is essential because of the
reason that this will assist the company in identifying the areas in they are good and the
areas wherein they are not in proper condition.
P5. Ethical practices in company and its impact on success of business
Within the food safety management, the ethical practices and strategies is also of utmost
importance. This is particularly because of the reason that it is essential for business to give a
part of profit in the development of the society and the environment. For this Scarlett Green can
make use of organic material and food products in order to make the final products. This will
assist the company in taking good material for the food products which will be healthy for the
people and the society (Manning, Luning and Wallace, 2019). In addition to this the company
must be using the ethical practices in the management and strategies of the business. This will
create a good image of the restaurant among the consumers.

In addition to this the CSR also influences the stakeholder in order to improve the
working of the company. The major reason for this is that if restaurant will be focusing on CSR
activities then this will increase interest of stakeholder in performing their activities in effective
and efficient manner. The good CSR practices will also motivate the employees to work in better
way and they will be retained in company for a longer. In addition to this another major reason
for working on CSR is that this will increase brand image in comparison with other competitors.
Further it can be stated that when Scarlett Green will make effective use of CSR and ethical
practices then this will increase the efficiency of operations of the restaurant.
P6 Assessment of Food Service quality monitoring and control process of Scarlett Green
There are several ways through which control over food service quality can be done. It
includes monitoring daily consumption, Ingredient specification, proper product recipes,
establishing product standards, decent sanitization, appropriate labelling and packing of food and
warehousing. These are some areas where manager of Scarlett Green restaurant should focus.
The manager can monitor daily consumption by maintaining monthly report or using software
for systematic control of inventory (Buswell, Williams and Sutton, 2017). Area manager should
keep control on ingredients' specification as final product will be as good as the raw materials put
into it. Products standard will encourage manager to maintain high quality dishes. A specified
period should be there for formulation of products to meet customers' patience level; more time

points.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) are documented processes that company need to
keep ensure that service and quality should delivered consistently every time (John Kotter's 8
step change model, 2021). SOPs are often used to demonstrate compliance with regulation and
operation to keep record that how task are held in organization. Scarlett restaurant uses SPOs to
maintain its service quality consistent. It also helps to avoid errors in transactions as every
worker keep written documents to deliver expected quality in restaurant. While using SPOs area
manager should keep in mind that better communication can be achieved at each level of
management of Scarlett Green restaurant.
Monitoring and evaluation in food industry can be checked by using various tools for
instance mystery guests, inspection, environment health checks and audits, customer satisfaction

feedback etc. Mystery control is made up of wide variety of functions like Operation, service,
customer satisfaction and brand value (Yang and Jiang, 2019). The tool helps the hotel industry
to check and monitor that customer is happy with quality of service and achieve high level of
satisfaction or not. This also helps the organization like Scarlett Green hotel to know that how
customers are reviewing brand It basically shows that how firm is representing particular theme.
For example an eco friendly organization can show respect to environment by making its interior

various ways in which restaurant can take feedback from customers such survey through
questionnaire . From feedback forms restaurant are able to know that how customer is reviewing

P7 Management alternatives to improve performance
There are numerous techniques though improved performance can be achieved such as

of organisation by applying and identifying the best practice for operations. It can also help the
area manager to compare the performance of the company with competitors. It also assists the
management of company to accept changes in organization and get innovative products and
services. Scarlett Green can alter its strategy with benchmarking to get more quality service

innovation. Balanced score card is use by company like Scarlett to attain its objectives and
primary functions which includes high quality and profitability. Scarlett uses this to identify
factors that is affecting its performance and frame strategies for future to tackle this hazardous
element. Hoshin Kanri helps the company to reduce waste that is happening due to lack of
communication and inconstancy. Food industry uses this to minimize their wastage of raw

material and to enhance their productivity with better communication process. This helps to
increase consistency which lead to serve higher service quality.

control employees. It not only makes the process of recruitment effective but also enhances their
productivity. Increment of employees' productivity solve half of problem of organization as in
restaurant there is big issue of consuming more time in serving food which gives bad impression
on customers and such type of problem can be solved by adapting talent management strategy
(Zanin and et.al., 2017). Restructuring refers to modifying a particular activity by implementing
required changes. Restructuring is another solution to deal with problem it helps the restaurant to
acquire changes. Using this technique helps restaurant to match its performance with changing
circumstances of industry. It also assists in achieving competitiveness as well as in attracting
customers that result in higher profitability.
Redundancies solution is used by restaurant’s owner who wants to remove their
employees when job is no longer required. This solution is adopted when there is more cost than
profit, in such cases management of organisation decides to remove job. Refurbishment is re
innovation of an old plan or strategy which makes the company to save its cost by just
implementing some changes. Scarlett Green can also use solution of merger acquisition that can

increases power in industry. There are many advantages of this solution which can be attained by
food chain company. Another solution can be strategic alliance that helps the companies to take
