BEOs Aren’t Operational. Galley Makes Them Executable.
Galley Assist imports BEOs into Galley’s Culinary Resource Planning platform—turning event plans into operational data you can purchase, produce, and execute.
Importing the BEO is just the beginning.
Built for caterers managing
high-change, high-volume events
THE REALITY OF BEOS
What BEOs Do — and What They Don’t
BEOs are great at describing the event: menus, guest counts, stations, and service details. But execution still lives elsewhere.
What BEOs Don’t Handle:
Turning menus into purchasable ingredients
Scaling recipes as counts change
Managing nutrition, allergens, or compliance
Driving prep, production, and execution workflows
That gap is where catering teams lose time
—and where mistakes happen.
GALLEY’S ROLE
From BEO to Execution — Automatically
Galley Assist imports BEOs and converts them into structured, operational data inside Galley—so every downstream workflow stays aligned.
IMPORT THE BEO
Import the BEO. Then Go Operational.
No matter how your BEO arrives, Galley Assist turns it into the foundation for execution.
Capability
Import from Files
Upload BEO PDFs or catering system exports.
Import from Text
Paste BEO details from emails or notes.
Import from URLs
Pull event and menu details from public links.
AI Event Creation
Automatically create Events, Stations, Menu Items, and Volumes.
Every input becomes clean, structured event data
—not a static reference.
PREVIEW & CONTROL
Review the Plan Before It Becomes Operations
Preview events, menus, stations, and quantities
Edit details to reflect the latest revision
Approve before anything is created
Nothing is created until you approve it.
TURN BEO MENUS INTO RECIPES
BEO Menus Become Real Recipes
Galley Assist can create recipes directly from the imported BEO—using the same menu details.
Why This Matters
Recipes now drive purchasing and prep
Menu changes update execution automatically
No disconnect between sales plans and kitchen reality
This is where the BEO becomes actionable.
EXECUTE THE EVENT IN GALLEY
Once It’s in Galley, You Can Run the Event
Execution Capabilities:
Purchase ingredients based on real volumes
Understand nutritional and allergen impact
Scale recipes as guest counts change
Align prep, production, and execution teams
Reuse recipes and menus across future events
The BEO doesn’t change. Execution does.
WHEN THE BEO CHANGES
When the BEO Changes, Execution Stays Aligned
Galley Assist updates event data without forcing teams to rebuild downstream work.
Guxest count increases
Menu swaps or station changes
Portion or volume adjustments
“Update all entrée portions to 120.”
WHY THIS MATTERS FOR CATERERS
Built for High-Change Catering Operations
Fewer execution mistakes from outdated plans
Faster response to last-minute changes
Cleaner handoffs from sales to culinary to ops
One source of truth from BEO to breakdown
