Custom Offline Restaurant and Bar software
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
I run a busy restaurant-bar operation and need a tailor-made, keyboard-centric POS that works entirely offline. The application must be written from the ground up in either .NET or Java and store its data in SQL Server; repackaged or template code is not acceptable.
My day-to-day flow relies on two parallel billing tracks—table-based service on the restaurant floor and quick bar-counter billing—so the UI has to let staff move between those screens with as few mouse clicks as possible. Orders entered on a captain pad should print instant KOTs in the kitchen, sync back to the main terminal and update running totals in real time.
Reporting is equally vital. I will need:
• Daily sales snapshots for management review
• Inventory usage tallies that reconcile against pours and portions
• Fully compliant excise reports plus month-end and on-demand correction statements
All reports must generate instantly from the offline database and export to PDF and Excel without invoking cloud services.
Deliverables
1. Executable desktop application and captain-pad module
2. Full, well-commented source code with build instructions
3. SQL Server schema and seed data scripts
4. Brief user manual and developer documentation
5. Post-delivery support agreement for ongoing improvements and regulatory updates
Acceptance criteria will be a live demo on my hardware—both restaurant floor terminal and captain pad—showing smooth keyboard navigation, zero internet reliance, correct tax/excise calculations, and complete report generation.
If your team has deep expertise in .NET/Java desktop development, SQL Server optimisation, and hospitality workflows, I’d like to hear how you would architect this solution and a realistic timeline for phased rollout.
