💻 About the Project

BandejApp is a management system for university restaurants designed to reduce food waste by providing more efficient management. The application allows users to pre-register their meals, confirm attendance, evaluate service quality, and submit improvement suggestions. Administrators have access to detailed data on the number of people who registered and confirmed their attendance, enabling better planning of the food quantities to be prepared and redistributed among the university restaurant’s units. Additionally, administrators can publish announcements and view user suggestions and reviews.

This project was conceived by Letícia de Oliveira Gago and, under the guidance of Flávio Luiz Seixas, several meetings were conducted to develop a technological solution to reduce food waste in university restaurants, ultimately leading to the creation of BandejApp. After the application was fully operational, a usability test was conducted using the SUS (System Usability Scale), which yielded satisfactory results. (more details).

The project was presented to the Superintendency of Information Technology at the Fluminense Federal University for incorporation into the university restaurant’s official application. Currently, this integration is in the implementation phase.
