The WPI Dining Services Delivery Plan project evaluated three major methods of delivery implementation for WPI Chartwells, identified the demand for a delivery service, and provided recommendations to achieve a successful, efficient, and more profitable service. It was in the best interest of both Dining Services and the team to help facilitate the life of the WPI community through the delivery service. The team conducted expert interviews, surveys, data transformation, decision making and risk analyses, and a Monte Carlo simulation to accomplish said outcomes. As a result, the team recommended sponsor WPI Chartwells to partner with Starship robot company to provide their service - helping Chartwells take the next step into both their business growth and modernization.
