Nutrient Standard Menu Planning

A Boy Enters His PIN Number on the Lunch Line
As of May 2009, there are fourteen software programs approved by USDA available to State agencies, school food authorities and local schools for implementing Nutrient Standard Menu Planning (NSMP). Before being approved by USDA, these software programs are tested and evaluated for use in conducting nutrient analyses that meet School Meals Initiative requirements.

We provide this information to assist State agencies, school food authorities, and local schools with the selection of a software program for use in implementing Nutrient Standard Menu Planning or conducting nutrient analyses to meet School Meals Initiative (SMI) requirements.
During the past year (May 2008 - May 2009), the following companies have submitted programs for evaluation and are in the process of meeting the specifications and requirements required for approval by USDA:
  • CN Resource
    (CN Menus)
  • Horizon Software International, LLC.
    (One Source)
Programs Currently Authorized by USDA

Click on a software title from the list below to view a chart with additional information about the program provided by the software developer. The following charts provide detailed information about costs, training, support, functions, additional services and features, and hardware requirements of the approved programs.
