OPERATING THE CUTTING STATION
* This station is generally run by one team member, but over busy periods he is oftenassisted by a fellow team member or manager.
* It is difficult to recognise the Pizzas and Pizzawraps exiting the oven as the cheese has meltedon top of the Pizza and Pizzawraps and thus this position requires perfect productknowledge.
* Speed and ac curac y are a lso vital.
* The cutter must ensure that the invoices that he has received from the team memberstanding at number three on the make table are arranged in the same order that theproducts are placed in the oven
*To this end he puts the invoices on a spike on top of the oven. The invoices arearranged by having the first order to exit the oven situated on top of the pile and
then all invoices in descending order hereafter. I.e. invoice 1657 followed by 1658
, 1659 etc
* It is imperative that the cutter reads the invoice accurately and prepares the correc tnumber of boxes / sauces for the order to be packed into.

Being Pro-Active on this station is vital to its smooth functioning.
Calling Time:
Before the cutter passes a counter order to the front or places a delivery order in the DriverStation he must call out the time it took for the order to be completed. This is calculated bycomparing the time on the invoice to the time on the wall clock and the difference is thetime it took for the order to be made. No order may leave the cutting station without thetime being called. The entire team, managers and driver compliment must be continuallytime focused.
The Debonairs Pizza promise to our customers is:1. Counter orders within 12 minutes to our customers2. Delivery orders within 40 minutes to our customers
