What to check when picking an EDG consultant for F&B
- Has the consultant deployed CDP work specifically in Singapore F&B?
- Can they integrate with your POS vendor (Eats365, Storehub, Toast, etc.)?
- Do they understand PDPC consent flows for F&B customer data?
- Can they design the rollout to layer alongside PSG-funded productised tools?

Frequently asked questions
EDG funds CUSTOM transformation work — multi-outlet customer data platforms, proprietary demand forecasting, integrated reservations + kitchen flow, AI menu engineering at chain scale. PSG only funds off-the-shelf solutions from the pre-approved catalogue. If you need bespoke F&B AI work, EDG is the route.
S$80,000 to S$300,000 per project is common for F&B EDG work, with EDG covering up to 50% for SMEs. Multi-outlet chains often run multiple EDG projects over 12-18 months as the transformation phases roll out.
Application + approval typically 3-6 months from scoping to Letter of Offer. Most F&B EDG projects then run 6-12 months in execution. Plan for 9-18 months end-to-end including reimbursement.
Not required, but often smarter. Use PSG to deploy productised AI tools quickly (POS, inventory, loyalty), validate the use case at one outlet, then use EDG to scale and customise across the chain. This sequence reduces EDG risk and strengthens the business case.
