Consider integrating a system where students can schedule laundry pickups and drop-offs online. Use a QR code or unique identifier system to track each student's laundry and notify them when it's ready for collection.

Implement a system where students can check the current crowd level in the mess in real-time. This could be achieved through a mobile app or a web interface that displays the current occupancy and suggests less busy times to visit.

Develop a platform where students can browse menus, place orders, and make payments online. Include features for specifying pickup times to avoid long queues and ensure timely service.
