SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — July 27, 2026 — Illumia, a leading provider of technology solutions that power payments, access, foodservice and operational experiences across higher education, healthcare, senior living and corporate environments, today announced a partnership with Elecate, a browser-based catering solution built to help foodservice teams manage events.

Through the partnership, Illumia will extend its foodservice capabilities with Elecate’s event management tools, modern payment capabilities, staffing and inventory tracking, client self-service portal, production workflows, and reporting. The solution gives teams a single source of operational data across the full life of an event, helping reduce manual coordination while simplifying execution.

“Catering and events require careful coordination across customers, kitchens, staff, inventory, payments and reporting,” said Arun Ahuja, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Healthcare and Corporate for Illumia. “Elecate gives foodservice teams a more connected way to manage that work from the first inquiry through the final invoice. This partnership supports our focus on integrating fragmented operations and giving our clients practical tools that make daily work easier.”

Elecate helps organizations create branded proposals and menus, manage customer approvals, coordinate kitchen production, track staffing and resources, as well as report on sales, profitability and event performance. It is designed to support complex foodservice environments, including universities, healthcare systems, corporate dining programs, and multi-location operations.

“Elecate was built to bring structure and visibility to one of the most detail-heavy areas of foodservice operations,” said Mark Douglas, CEO at Elecate. “By partnering with Illumia, we can help more institutions connect the customer experience with the operational work required to deliver flawless events.”

The partnership reflects Illumia’s continued investment in connected technology that helps institutions modernize essential operations and improve the daily experiences they provide to students, staff, patients, residents, and guests.
