Cooking 4:11 vs 5:00 target
Biggest lever
33% waiting
Most ticket time is items sitting, not cooking
Prep-start skipped
Compliance

A median food ticket is on screen 5:20 = 1:45 waiting + 3:16 cooking. Cooking is roughly on target across most stations; the drag is coordination/wait.
Kitchen by station
| Station | Tickets | On screen | Waiting | Cooking | Target | Start-btn | Status |

Cooking = start-button to bump. Waiting = fired to start-button. Start-btn = share of tickets where a prep start was logged; low values mean the split isn't reliable and the button is being skipped.
