HESTIA

Hestia is a government initiative that combines defence services catering and facilities management contracts in regions throughout the UK. The services cover all three defence service organisations.


Uniware is operating contracts with Aramark and their facilities management partner in the South East, North, Scotland and Northern Ireland.


Uniware are proud to be awarded the contract for the Aramark allocation of Hestia contracts which spans over 60 sites in the UK.


All Hestia sites in the first phase of the project had a simultaneous go-live of 1st September 2017. 264 tills and peripherals had to be strategically planned, set up and switched on simultaneously at 6am on the 1st September. The install and go-live was a success with no disruption to service.


REQUIREMENTS

Key to the success of this project was the ability to include mess billing for the officers. Uniware have worked within the MOD since 1998 and mess billing is an integral part of the Uniware Cloud solution. Through an integration with ‘Sage 50’, monthly mess bills are exported and invoiced. 


A P2PE & fully PCI compliant solution formed a mandatory requirement for all transactions.


The sites use the Uniware Cloud to manage all aspects of their EPoS solution including loyalty and site-wide promotions.


Campus Life and Uniware are now working together in order to facilitate a Hestia-wide app to be used to register loyalty and make payment at any PoS location across the estate.


THE UNIWARE CLOUD

Uniware Cloud requires very little daily management. All sales items, prices, promotions and product groupings are automatically fed into the solution via a fully integrated client-based F&B solution. 


Daily reporting is scheduled and delivered to the correct people at designated times and locations thus streamlining day-to-day EPoS management.
