Chef for Hire: Enhancing Meal Delivery Efficiency with ServTracker
Chef for Hire is a home-delivered meal provider based in Indianapolis, Indiana. Serving thousands of clients across multiple routes, the company is dedicated to ensuring efficient meal delivery services that meet the nutritional needs of their clients. As their operations expanded, Chef for Hire needed a more advanced platform to manage their growing client base and delivery processes.
To learn how ServTracker transformed their operations, we spoke with Jeff Scheck, Vice President and General Manager of Chef for Hire.
The Challenge
Chef for Hire struggled with outdated systems that required manual processes for route planning, data entry, and meal delivery management. Their previous solution relied on Microsoft MapPoint, which had been discontinued, forcing them to juggle multiple disconnected applications. This led to inefficiencies, errors, and a lack of real-time visibility into their operations.
How ServTracker Helped

ServTracker enabled Chef for Hire to efficiently manage over 5,000 clients across 12 routes in a two-week delivery cycle.
Automated processes allowed the organization to expand their client base without increasing manual workload.

- Staff can now respond quickly to client inquiries, such as “When will my meal arrive?”, reducing stress for both clients and employees.
- Automated reconciliation processes reduce manual data entry errors and improve financial tracking.
Cloud-Based Accessibility

Enhanced Reporting and Data Tracking
- ServTracker’s comprehensive reporting capabilities allow Chef for Hire to generate detailed insights quickly.
- Custom queries help the organization analyze trends, track delivery success rates, and identify areas for improvement.
- The ability to customize data groupings enables Chef for Hire to tailor reports to their unique operational needs.
Streamlined Route Management
