End-to-End Business Diagnostics & Operational Audits for SMBs
Identify hidden cash leaks, supply chain friction, and operational bottlenecks across Money, Inventory, People, Market, Operations, and Quality—with an actionable 90-day turnaround roadmap.
Pinpoint the Invisible Bottlenecks Holding Your Business Back
Many small and medium-sized enterprise (SMB) owners work in their business rather than on it. When growth stagnates or profit margins tighten, the underlying issue is rarely a single department—it is usually cross-functional friction between finance, inventory, people, and processes.
Combining 25+ years of digital transformation, business operations consulting, and data-driven systems architecture, I provide an objective, full-spectrum diagnostic audit. I evaluate how your data, cash, materials, and teams flow through your company to replace guesswork with concrete, measurable solutions.
THE 6-PILLAR SMB DIAGNOSTIC FRAMEWORK
Money & Financial Costing (Capital & Margins)
- Unit Economics & Cost Accounting: Analyzing cost per unit, direct vs. indirect overheads, and machine idle time costs (integrating with SAP/ERP data).
- Working Capital & Cash Flow Traps: Identifying long payment collection cycles, hidden leakages, and margin dilution.
- Pricing & Profitability Analysis: Reviewing pricing tiers against actual service/product delivery costs.
Inventory & Supply Chain Health
- Stock Turnover & Holding Costs: Identifying slow-moving and dead inventory tying up liquid capital.
- Procurement & Vendor Risk: Evaluating vendor dependency, purchase price variance, and supply chain lead times.
- Reorder Logic & Demand Forecasting: Auditing stock management processes to eliminate out-of-stock events and overstocking.
People, Organization & Role Clarity
- Role Alignment & Accountability: Mapping organizational charts against key business outcomes to eliminate duplicate responsibilities.
- Productivity Benchmarks: Evaluating team throughput, output per employee, and delivery velocity.
- Key-Person Dependency: Uncovering operational risks where critical business knowledge is concentrated in a single individual.
Market, GTM & Customer Retention
- Sales Pipeline Velocity: Auditing lead conversion rates, customer acquisition cost (CAC), and sales cycle duration.
- Customer Retention & Churn: Pinpointing root causes behind client attrition and declining repeat business.
- Channel & GTM Alignment: Evaluating your go-to-market strategy against market demand and competitor positioning.
Core Operations & Digitalization
- Workflow Bottlenecks: Mapping end-to-end operational processes to find handoff delays and manual friction.
- Digital Transformation Audit: Evaluating your ERP/CRM tools (SAP, Odoo, custom software) to automate manual data entry and paperwork.
- Asset Utilization: Analyzing machine uptime, capacity constraints, and operational throughput.
Quality, Governance & Compliance
- Defect Rates & Rework Cost: Auditing product/service defect frequencies and customer return costs.
- SLA & Delivery Consistency: Measuring performance against client delivery commitments and service standards.
- Process Documentation: Ensuring standard operating procedures (SOPs) are established for consistent quality control.
