Instead of Chomp
Stop renting Chomp. Own your kitchen records.
We build your version around your food control plan, map and check your Chomp history, and run it for you. Your checks, corrective work and verification evidence stay in a database you own.
Chomp lists NZ$959 paid annually or NZ$92 a month, excluding GST. Multiple kitchens are quoted separately.

What the subscription covers
Compare the kitchen workflow, not just the annual bill
Chomp bundles a device app, management tools, training and audit reports. The free base here gives a trusted operator the records and recurring reviews. Your custom version adds the working tools your kitchen needs.
An annual or monthly plan
Chomp lists NZ$959 paid annually or NZ$92 monthly, excluding GST. This is a modest bill for one kitchen, so ownership and fit matter more than a large savings promise.
A quote for multiple kitchens
Chomp asks businesses with more than one venue to talk to its team. Compare your actual quote with the scope of your own version.
Task and user management
Chomp includes a management dashboard for tasks, users, training and reporting.
Food safety training
Training is included with Chomp. The free base here records training evidence and review dates. It does not supply a training course.
Audit reports
Chomp includes audit reports. Here, verification preparation draws on your checks, corrective records and training evidence, with original reports kept in your archive.
Optional temperature loggers
Chomp lists logger hardware at NZ$265 each and an annual subscription of NZ$39 per logger, excluding GST. Sensor collection is a separately scoped connection in your custom version.

Ten questions across your kitchen records
These answers run on the demo records today. Build the reviews your operator needs around your own history.
Switching
How to switch from Chomp
A move involves exporting and reviewing your records, mapping the checks you want to bring across, and testing the new process before you stop using Chomp.
- 1
Export and keep your records
Chomp documents audit reports that you can select by date range or task, but its native spreadsheet layout has not been verified. Ask Chomp what export formats your account allows, usually CSV or Excel, and keep the original reports and archive. Decide which check history to bring across. Attachments and sensor history need separate handling.
- 2
Prepare a test import
Map the checks you want to bring into the supplied CSV layout, then have a person review the mapping against the Chomp source. Only reviewed, mapped check records can be imported. Start with a dry run, which tests the prepared records without importing them. Do not assume other Chomp history will transfer automatically.
- 3
Review the import findings
Check what the dry run flags and compare its record counts with the source reports. Resolve mapping or record issues before importing. A bad row can stop the whole import, so do not proceed until the prepared checks have been reviewed and the counts make sense. Keep the source reports available for comparison.
- 4
Run both systems briefly
After importing, keep Chomp available while the operator records real work in the new system for a short period. Compare the checks and results with the Chomp source, and confirm the staff workflow and configured plan details are right. The base system is for a trusted operator, so agree who records work before making the switch.
- 5
Switch off Chomp
Stop using Chomp only after the operator has checked the new records and confirmed the day to day process works. Keep the original reports, exports and attachments in your archive, and preserve records for the required retention period. The new system does not certify compliance or replace your food control plan or verifier.
Where the real effort goes
The main work is usually mapping your own fields and rules, then deciding how much Chomp history to bring across. Attachments and sensor history need separate handling, and the base import covers reviewed mapped checks only. If you have Enterprise DNA install and run your custom version, they handle the mapping and review work for your version.

Questions
Instead of Chomp, answered
Is this an approved food control plan? expand_more
No. It is a records system for the plan your business follows. The responsible operator and verifier confirm the applicable rules and required evidence. Record checks flag gaps and configured reminders. They do not certify compliance or decide food is safe.
Can we bring our Chomp history across? expand_more
Yes, after mapping and review. Chomp describes audit reports selected by date range or task. We have not verified a native spreadsheet layout. Keep your original reports, map the checks and compare them with the source before importing. Enterprise DNA handles that work for your custom version. Attachments and sensor history need separate handling.
Will it work on the kitchen tablet and collect temperatures? expand_more
Tablet entry and automatic sensor collection are scoped additions to your custom version. We agree the actual staff workflow before switching. The free base supports a trusted operator recording work and producing read-only reports.
What does the free version cost to keep? expand_more
The software is free under the MIT licence. You handle installation, backups, access and ongoing changes. Hosting and any assistant subscription are separate costs. Enterprise DNA can build and operate your version for one setup fee and then a retainer.
Is switching worth it for one kitchen? expand_more
Chomp lists NZ$959 paid annually excluding GST. A small subscription alone is not a reason to commission a custom system. Bring the questions, record gaps and working habits your current setup does not handle. The call establishes whether owning a tailored version is worth the work.
