Project description

Bono is a SaaS restaurant management system designed to streamline operations and elevate the dining experience. It redefines order handling by reducing waiter-customer interaction through a QR code system placed on tables. Customers scan the code, browse the menu, place orders, and track their preparation in real-time. Once the order is marked "done," waiters are notified to deliver the food. Payments are simplified with multiple API integrations like Telebirr, Cbebirr, and Chapa, allowing customers to pay online and leave at their convenience.

When developing Bono, I aimed to solve key challenges restaurants face in managing orders and payments. The result was a SaaS platform that empowers restaurants to streamline operations and offer a modern dining experience.
I personally handled:

  • Crafting the user experience for customers, from scanning QR codes to real-time order tracking and seamless online payments.
  • Tackling the technical challenge of real-time communication by implementing WebSocket integration in Django.
  • Architecting the back-end to handle advanced analytics for admins, such as time-to-completion metrics and income reporting.
  • Crafting the UI/UX design and attributes that have both the customers and the administrators in mind for an easier user experience.
  • Creating and managing the Front-end development.
  • Content strategy for social media

Impact of my role

Bono has been instrumental in optimizing operations for a restaurant client, reducing their order processing time by 40% and increasing efficiency. This project reflects my ability to identify real-world problems, design effective solutions, and deliver results that matter. Bono is currently operational in a cafe, showcasing its value in a live environment. Bono stands as one of my proudest achievements, where I played a pivotal role in its development. I took the lead in designing and implementing this SaaS restaurant management system to streamline restaurant operations and elevate customer experiences.
