02
Operations and productivity
Processes, flows, quality, bottlenecks.
-
03
Logistics and warehousing
Layout, inventory, order picking, transport, service levels.
-
04
Information systems
ERP, WMS, data, dashboards: do they really serve the business?

Margins and cash
An operational reading of costs and cash, in coordination with your expert-comptable (chartered accountant).

Frequently asked questions
Business audit: your questions.
The questions we are asked most often before an audit.
What is an organizational audit?
It is an outside look at how your company works: who decides what, how information and work flow, where time and money are lost. It leads to a diagnosis and priorities for action.
Organizational audit or operational audit: what is the difference?
An organizational audit looks at structure: roles, governance, decision-making processes. An operational audit looks at execution: flows, productivity, quality, logistics. Our 3-day audit covers both, focusing on what weighs most on your results.
How much does the 3-day audit cost?
It is a fixed fee of €3,600 excl. VAT for 3 days on a standard scope (one site, one business activity), excluding travel expenses. If the scope is broader, the quote, drawn up after a free first conversation, specifies it. The amount is deducted if an assignment follows.
Can the audit be done remotely?
Yes. Through secure data exchange (accounting exports, ERP or WMS exports, indicators, organization charts) and video interviews, the audit can be carried out entirely remotely. An on-site visit can complement it if it adds value.
What happens after the audit?
You leave with a written diagnosis and a prioritized action plan. You can implement it on your own, with occasional support, or entrust its execution to an interim manager. No follow-up is imposed.
Does my data remain confidential?
Yes. Data is exchanged securely, used solely for the audit, and we never name our clients.
