PrimeroEdge and the Indiana Department of Education have partnered to provide all districts within the state school nutrition software – all at no cost.
Districts in Indiana can now sign up and get access to PrimeroEdge’s Menu Planning and Production software.
Menu Planning
Add Any Allergen
The eight standard allergens plus gluten are pre-loaded and ready to go. On top of that, 60+ custom allergens are already built into the system. With PrimeroEdge, you can add any additional allergen. Allergens are marked at the ingredient level for automatic tracking to the recipe level and beyond.
Embrace Forecasting Tools
Accurately plan for production, organized exactly how you want it. Choose your forecast period and forecast type, and even blend multiple forecast types to create your own custom combined forecast. Generate a list of all forecasted items and their quantities for your bidding and budgeting needs. Know the amount of raw material necessary in order to take advantage of PAL funds and USDA commodities.
Accurate Administrative Reviews
Easily access uploaded nutrition labels for a smooth, accurate Administrative Review process. You can provide your State reviewer access to these documents remotely, or easily log-in for quick display during an on-site review.
Find and Replace
Rather than manually locating each individual element, quickly scan your database with PrimeroEdge. Automatically migrate the replaced product all the way up to your production plans.
Production
Plan Better
Improve your projected counts with multiple forecasting tools, effortlessly track carryovers and waste, and rest easy knowing that you’re making data-backed decisions.
Maximize Your Food Cost Dollars

Save Time
Streamline your Administrative Review process and free up hours spent scanning, copying and emailing files to your team. With PrimeroEdge you can electronically receive, organize and document production information in one location. Plus, Production Records are automatically created and electronically published to each site upon menu assignment.
Electronic Production Records
You’ll be able to quickly determine food quantities needed for today, and future meals, with information from Production Records. In addition, data is communicated instantly to the system, allowing you to view Production Records and check the status on each of your site’s production calendars at any time.
