The friction is rarely the kitchen. It is the seam between locations, each running its own POS dialect, each producing its own end-of-day export, each waiting for someone in a back office to reconcile them by Wednesday.

The system we model in this study consolidates POS, labor, inventory, and supplier flows behind a single operational core. Each location keeps the device it knows. The intelligence moves up.

Reports become live. Forecasting becomes possible. The Wednesday reconciliation disappears, not because someone worked harder, but because the architecture made it unnecessary.

What the pattern teaches: the unit of intervention is the seam, not the surface. Replacing POS systems wins nothing. Connecting them, with discipline, wins everything.
