As of December 2009, there are fifteen 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.
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.
*This program is no longer being maintained by Bon Appetit/Pacific Triangle Software, Inc., and does not contain the newest version of the Child Nutrition Database (CN13). Users who rely on USDA-approved software should begin the procurement process so that they may obtain USDA-approved software by the start of the 2010 school year.
