Ingredient Preparation Activity.

Abstract

The Ingredient Preparation Activity (IPA), formerly a branch of the Central Food Preparation System (CFPS) at Fort Lee, Virginia, was evaluated separately and subsequently to the CFPS evaluation to ascertain the practicality and potential for an autonomous IPA operation. The TRADOC and Fort Lee, as the operators of the CFPS, perceived the IPA as an efficient, cost effective, well received, and highly desirable activity. These characteristics suggested that the IPA should be further analyzed for possible adoption, on a command option basis, as a means for improving the cost effectiveness, quality, and responsiveness of an installation's food service program.
