Built for the High-Pressure Environment of the Factory Floor

Managing an industrial cafeteria involves complex variables. Multiple contractor agencies, tiered meal subsidies, and strict labor compliance. Manual coupon systems or basic software can't handle the "Shift Rush," leading to long queues and disputed billing.

SpaceBasic’s Industrial Canteen Software automates the entire lifecycle of a meal transaction. From Biometric verification that prevents proxy entries to Contractor Billing modules that generate instant reports for third-party agencies, we remove the administrative burden from your HR team.

Our system ensures that subsidies are applied correctly based on employee grade or shift timing, giving you Zero-Leakage Revenue and ironclad data for your next labor audit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the system handle multiple contractors and labor agencies?
Yes. You can assign workers to specific agencies and generate separate, automated billing reports for each contractor. This significantly simplifies the monthly reconciliation process for your finance and HR teams.
How does the software handle tiered meal subsidies?
SpaceBasic allows you to set complex rules based on employee grade, shift timing, or department. For example, the system can automatically grant a 100% subsidy for night-shift workers and a partial subsidy for general shifts.
Does the hardware work in dusty or high-usage factory conditions?
Absolutely. We provide industrial-grade, ruggedized biometric terminals and POS hardware built specifically for manufacturing environments. These devices are IP-rated to handle dust, moisture, and high-volume daily usage.
Can the system integrate with our existing HRMS or Payroll software?
Yes. Our system features robust API integration capabilities, allowing it to sync seamlessly with popular HRMS and payroll platforms to ensure accurate meal deductions and shift roster management.
What happens if the factory internet connection goes down?
The canteen never stops. Our terminals have an offline-first mode that stores transaction data locally during outages. Once the connection is restored, all data automatically syncs with the central server.
