Payment is processed before the order proceeds to the kitchen.</li><li data-list="ordered"><strong>Kitchen Assignment</strong></li><li data-list="ordered">Validated orders appear on the live Kitchen Dashboard. When a Chef accepts an order, concurrency protection prevents another staff member from claiming the same order.</li><li data-list="ordered"><strong>Kitchen-to-Delivery Handoff</strong></li><li data-list="ordered">When an order is marked as ready, it becomes available to the delivery workflow.</li><li data-list="ordered"><strong>Delivery Assignment</strong></li><li data-list="ordered">Managers can assign orders to in-house couriers or use external delivery providers such as Yandex Delivery or Uber.</li><li data-list="ordered"><strong>Order Completion</strong></li><li data-list="ordered">Once delivery is confirmed, the order status is updated across the system and relevant analytics are updated.</li></ol><h3>Technical Foundation</h3><p>The existing architecture includes:</p><ol><li data-list="bullet">Concurrency protection for order assignment</li><li data-list="bullet">Real-time synchronization between staff dashboards</li><li data-list="bullet">Order timelines and auditing</li><li data-list="bullet">Role-based workflows</li><li data-list="bullet">Inventory reservation</li><li data-list="bullet">Payment processing and protected webhooks</li><li data-list="bullet">Automated handling of exceptional order states</li></ol><p>This gives the buyer an existing operational foundation that can be customized, expanded, or commercialized without rebuilding the core restaurant order-routing workflow from scratch.</p>
