Does anyone have ideas for efficiently supplying tea to staff during working hours? We currently leave tea, milk and sugar in the lunchroom but suspect the facility is being abused. Thanks

Please use the tea/coffee machine; it will surely minimize the cost. Use milk powder instead of milk and sugar pouches instead of sugar. This option is cheaper and easier to serve. Please hire an office boy. He will ensure the optimal usage of tea and coffee materials, reducing wastage.

I go with Mr. Vipin's views, and this is the practice in my office too.
A small correction: Instead of hiring an office boy, you can hire a coffee/tea/milk boy to do the same based on timings. He can come at that time, serve it, and leave the office, and at times in the evening too.

Hi Simply put a vending machin for easy to use as per employee requirement and load tea and milk once in morning. Regd. C. Bhushan Sharma

If your office is planning to reduce consumption, please consider reducing the number of office tea services. Specify the number of people to be served. You can also mention the serving times - 10:30 AM in the morning and 3:30 PM post-lunch. If people can have tea when needed, opt for tea bags. Additionally, as Vipin suggested, consider using milk powder (available in pouches/sachets) and sugar sachets. Thank you.

I guess there are some vending machines that have the facility to operate through coupons. You may issue two coupons to your employees, which they can use whenever they want in a day.

Yes, Ravi...
You have no clue - HR people are questioned if the tea is disappearing and even if water supply is not there in the restroom. And all these assignments will be forwarded only by people who we report to... they say - we execute!

Hi,
- Have a separate pantry.
- Fix the timings.
- You can serve tea to individuals at their cabin/seat. If someone missed it, don't offer again. If you do, then you have to serve people the whole day.
- Men can make good tea/coffee according to the individual's requirements.
- Vending machines can only give you the same taste.
