The weekly operating loop

How the agent runs the operation

From the availability deadline through the last-minute drop, the work moves forward without turning the manager into the scheduling engine.

  1. 01

    Availability locks

    Staff set a usual week and weekly exceptions for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner.

  2. 02

    Banquet demand arrives

    Your weekly BEO data brings in events, rooms, times, guest counts, and staffing needs.

  3. 03

    The schedule is built

    Onvell applies banquet rules, availability, hour targets, seniority, and rotation fairness.

  4. 04

    Assignments go live

    Servers and captains see their work in the app, organized around the banquet week.

  5. 05

    Coverage recovers

    Drops move to the trade board and eligible staff can pick them up while Onvell monitors gaps.

  6. 06

    Managers supervise

    The dashboard shows the agent’s work, exceptions, and coverage so a manager can intervene anytime.

Built by a banquet operator

The rules came from running the floor.

Onvell’s first proving ground is the founder’s own large US resort banquet operation. The agent is shaped by the decisions that determine whether a real banquet week works.

Call times

Timing based on the event and service style

Hour targets

FT goals, caps, seniority, and fair rotation

Meal periods

Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner availability

Captain coverage

Leadership and break-pool rules built in

The agent’s work, made visible

You supervise the agent that does the scheduling.

The manager dashboard provides oversight and manual control. The staff app provides each person’s assignments, availability, communication, and trade board access.

  • See the full week and every exception
  • Override assignments when operations require it
  • Reach teams through in-app communication

See the staffing operation run itself.
