Who fills in the projected headcount on the Production Log?

The projected headcount on the Production Log is filled in by the facility manager. This position is responsible for overseeing the operational aspects of the dining facility, including staffing, resources, and budget management. The facility manager ensures that accurate projections are made to facilitate effective meal planning and inventory management.

By maintaining an accurate headcount, the facility manager helps to ensure that food service operations run smoothly, preventing over-preparation or under-preparation of meals. This role is critical in managing the logistics of serving meals to military personnel, as it directly impacts the efficiency and effectiveness of the food service operation.

In contrast, while the dining facility supervisor and shift leader focus on daily operations and team management, and the food service officer may have a broader oversight role, it is the facility manager who holds the responsibility for filling in the projected headcount on the Production Log.
