Dishtec is the specialist for aged-care kitchens.
National aged-care groups and hospital networks are Dishtec's strategic vertical. We've built our compliance reporting, portable-kitchen capability and project model around the regulatory and welfare pressures these operators face daily. The full Aged Care & Hospitals page covers our model in detail — including the Mercy Place Mont Clare case study.
Industry
Hotels & hospitality
After-hours scheduling and OEM parts inventory engineered around premium hotel kitchen service windows.
Challenges
-
No second chances at service
A failed combi oven during evening service means refunds, comp meals and reviews that take months to recover. The kitchen must work, every cover, every night.
-
Brand-standard equipment
Premium properties run premium equipment. Service requires OEM parts and brand-trained technicians — not generic replacements.
-
Multi-property portfolios
Chain operators need consistent service standards from a CBD flagship to a regional resort.
-
After-hours access windows
Service has to happen between dinner and breakfast. Provider availability outside business hours decides whether the program runs.
How Dishtec solves it
-
After-hours scheduling as standard
Maintenance booked around your service windows — late-night, early-morning, or in off-season for resort properties.
-
OEM parts inventory on the van
Service vehicles carry parts for Rational, Hobart, Winterhalter, Williams and other premium brands.
-
Single national agreement
Chain operators sign one service agreement covering every property — same pricing, reporting, escalation.
-
Discrete on-site presence
Unmarked vehicles where required, chef whites in front of guests, BOH discretion expected at premium properties.
Industry
Healthcare & government
Panel-ready procurement documentation, security-cleared technicians, audit-grade reporting on every visit.
Challenges
-
Procurement compliance
Government and healthcare procurement runs through tendered panels with strict documentation, insurance and licensing requirements.
-
Security & access protocols
Site access is controlled — visitor IDs, escort requirements, restricted zones. Servicing has to work inside the security model, not around it.
-
Patient & resident welfare
Service interruptions affect patient meals, medication storage, infection-control workflows. Risk profile is clinical, not commercial.
-
Audit pressure
Accreditation, infection control, food safety, gas and electrical — multiple overlapping audit regimes all want the same evidence.
How Dishtec solves it
-
Panel-ready documentation
Insurance certificates, trade licences, modern slavery statements, WHS systems — all current and packaged for procurement panel onboarding.
-
Security-cleared technicians
Police-checked, vaccinated and credentialed for healthcare and government site access. Documentation supplied on demand.
-
Audit-grade service reporting
Every service event produces a signed, photographed, timestamped report — formatted for the audit regimes your facility operates under.
-
National panel coverage
One panel agreement covers facilities across NSW, QLD, VIC, SA and WA — same pricing and standards across the portfolio.
Industry
Education
Term-break scheduling and training-kitchen specialisation for schools, universities and TAFE.
Challenges
-
Term-break windows
Major service and project work has to happen in school holidays. Miss the window and you wait three months for the next one.
-
Training kitchens
Hospitality and culinary courses run training kitchens with intensive use and student safety implications. Service standards must match commercial expectations.
-
Procurement panel access
Universities and Department of Education frameworks run through approved panels with strict insurance, WHS and tender requirements.
-
Capital planning visibility
Catering managers need visibility of asset replacement cycles to feed into the institution's capital budget process.
How Dishtec solves it
-
Term-break scheduling
Major works planned around the academic calendar — January, April, July, October service blocks coordinated across the portfolio.
-
Training kitchen specialisation
Experience servicing hospitality and culinary training facilities — including risk assessments calibrated to student-use environments.
-
Panel-ready documentation
Insurance, licensing, modern slavery statements, WHS systems and child-safety credentials packaged for university and education department panels.
-
Annual capital reports
End-of-financial-year reporting flags asset classes approaching end-of-life for capex submission into the budget cycle.
Industry
Facilities management
A specialist commercial kitchen subcontract inside your FM service stack — SLA-matched, CMMS-ready.
Challenges
-
Specialist trade gap
FM companies cover the building envelope — but commercial kitchens need gas, electrical and refrigeration licensed technicians with specific commercial-grade knowledge.
-
Single accountable subcontractor
A patchwork of local kitchen service providers across the portfolio means inconsistent reporting, varied pricing and warranty edge disputes.
-
SLA pass-through
Whatever response times you commit to your client need to be backed by a subcontractor whose SLAs match — including 24/7 emergency.
-
Reporting integration
Service data needs to land in your CMMS or facility management platform, not a spreadsheet emailed monthly.
How Dishtec solves it
-
National kitchen-specialist subcontract
A single Dishtec agreement covers commercial kitchen maintenance across every site in your FM portfolio.
-
SLA-matched response
Our 24/7 emergency and planned maintenance SLAs are written to pass-through whatever you commit to your client.
-
CMMS-ready data export
Service event data is exportable from the Dishtec portal so your CMMS stays the source of truth.
-
Consolidated billing & reporting
One monthly invoice, one consolidated service report, one account manager — across every property.
Industry
Clubs & restaurants
After-hours service, transparent pricing and a single contract across multi-venue hospitality groups.
Challenges
-
Live trade environment
Service must happen between trade — or during it without disrupting guests. Minor issues escalate quickly under volume.
-
Multi-venue groups
Hospitality groups running multiple venues need a consistent service partner — not a different local provider for each pub.
-
Liquor & gaming licensing implications
Service interruptions can affect compliance where food service is a licensing condition.
-
Equipment density and abuse
Club and pub kitchens are hard-used. High-volume warewashing, multiple fryers, char broilers — reliability is constantly tested.
How Dishtec solves it
-
After-hours and pre-trade service windows
Planned maintenance scheduled outside trade — Mondays, early mornings, post-close. Emergency response 24/7 when something goes wrong on a Friday night.
-
Multi-venue agreements
Groups running 5+ venues get a single agreement across the portfolio — same pricing, reporting and standards from CBD venue to suburban pub.
-
Equipment lifespan extension
Programmed servicing tuned to the abuse profile of high-volume club and pub kitchens.
-
Transparent fixed-price callouts
No surprises on the invoice. Callout pricing and labour rates fixed and itemised on every service report.
