+**Using pre-built image (recommended):**
+
+Update `docker-compose.yml` to use the GitHub Container Registry image:
+```yaml
+services:
+  bom-local-service:
+    image: ghcr.io/alexhopeoconnor/bom-local-service:latest
+    # Remove or comment out the 'build:' section

+**Building from source:**
+
+If you want to build locally, keep the `build:` section in `docker-compose.yml` and run:
 ```bash
 docker-compose up -d
 ```
 
 This will:
-- Build the image if it doesn't exist
+- Pull/build the image as configured
 - Start the service on port 8082 (configurable via `HOST_PORT`)
 - Mount the `./cache` directory for persistent storage
 - Apply all environment variable configurations
