Familiar symptoms: where processes fail

If the work relies on the heroism of individual employees rather than clear rules, the audit will show exactly where time and money are lost.

Processes rely on people

When a key employee leaves, part of the work stops because the rules are not documented anywhere.

Enquiries and tasks are lost

Enquiries and tasks get stuck, forgotten, or fail to reach the result at the intersection of departments.

Data is transferred manually

Employees copy information between spreadsheets, messengers, and systems, losing time and accuracy.

Approvals are delayed

Decisions wait for one manager, while deals and documents sit idle waiting for a response.

Actions are duplicated

The same work is done in multiple places—extra steps go unnoticed from the inside.

Management cannot see the big picture

There is no data to show where the process is stalling and why results are falling.

CRM was implemented, but it didn't get easier

The system exists, but it does not reflect the real process—meaning the problem is deeper than settings.

What is included in the audit

What we check during the audit

We analyze the company's work as a whole—from people and regulations to loss points and process readiness for automation.

Processes and their participants

How work actually flows, who is responsible for what, and where there are ownerless zones.

Regulations and documents

What is documented, what lives only in employees' heads, and where versions diverge.

Loss points and bottlenecks

Stages where the process stalls, and clients and money slip away.

Duplication and unnecessary approvals

Where work is repeated and which steps can be removed without losing control.

Readiness for automation

Which operations should be automated first and what is required for this?

How it works

How the business process audit is conducted

1

Briefing and data collection

We discuss the tasks and scope of the audit, collect processes, regulations, and metrics.

2

Interviews with employees

We talk with process participants — about how work is actually done, not just on paper.

3

Analysis and process mapping

We build a map of business processes, marking bottlenecks, losses, and duplication.

4

Report and results presentation

We present findings, priorities, and a change plan — and agree on the next step.

What you will get

What you will get: a report and a clear action plan

The audit is the first step to working automation, not a report for the sake of reporting. The result is a document you can act on.

Business process map

A visual scheme of how the company's work is actually structured.

Report with bottlenecks

Where and why time, enquiries, and money are lost — with specifics.

Prioritized improvement plan

What to change first and what will yield the fastest effect.

Automation Roadmap

Step-by-step plan: what and in what order to automate and implement.

Typical findings

What the audit usually finds

Enquiries are lost during handover

Enquiries pass between employees and disappear without a responsible person.

Data is copied manually

Information is transferred from messengers and spreadsheets — with errors and time loss.

Approvals depend on one person

The process stops when the manager is busy or unavailable.

Tasks have no owner or deadline

It is unclear who is responsible and when it should be ready — control is lost.

Reporting is collected manually

Numbers are compiled in tables, data diverges, and decisions are made blindly.

CRM does not reflect the real process

The system is configured for one thing, but work goes differently — data is not trusted.

We have solved similar challenges in practice — for example, in the travel company sales automation case study.

Who is it suitable for

Who needs a business process audit

Sales department

When enquiries are lost and the sales pipeline is opaque, an audit shows what to fix before sales department automation.

Service and support

When enquiries are processed slowly, and some enquiries remain without response and control.

Operational departments

When there is a lot of manual work and data transfer between departments and systems.

Companies before CRM implementation

So that CRM implementation starts with a real process rather than arbitrary settings.

Companies before automation

So that business process automation addresses real losses rather than merely convenient tasks.

Business results

What changes after the audit

Processes become more transparent

You can see how work is structured and where it gets stuck.

Loss points are clear

Management knows where time, enquiries, and money are lost.

Unified rules emerge

The team has a shared understanding of who leads the process and how.

It is clear what to automate first

Decisions are made based on priorities, not intuition.

CRM is built on a real process

Implementation starts with facts, not a set of random settings.

Cost

How much does a business process audit cost?

The cost depends on the number of processes, participants and depth of the audit. After a short briefing, we will determine the scope and prepare a clear plan. You can describe the task in the form or on the contact page.

FAQ

Questions about business process audit

It is a diagnosis of how the company's work is actually structured: processes, participants, approvals, task transfers, and loss points. The goal is to find where time and money are lost and prepare a clear change plan.
Analysis of processes and their participants, regulations and documents, loss points and bottlenecks, duplication and unnecessary approvals, as well as assessing the readiness of processes for automation.
To see the real picture of the company's work, understand where losses occur, and make decisions on optimization and automation based on facts, not guesses.
Four steps: briefing and data collection, interviews with employees, analysis and building a process map, report with bottlenecks and a change plan.
Timelines depend on the number of processes, participants, and depth of the audit. We determine exact timelines after a short briefing.
The cost depends on the number and complexity of processes and the depth of the audit. We calculate the scope and cost after a short briefing.
An audit is a diagnosis: we find bottlenecks and losses. Optimization is changing processes based on the audit results. The audit answers 'what and why to change', while optimization and automation answer 'how'.
The audit is conducted by WDA specialists in CRM implementation and automation. Therefore, the result of the audit is not a theoretical report, but a plan that can be implemented in practice.
Yes. The audit shows real processes, and CRM implementation starts with a clear picture, not a random set of settings. This saves time and money on the project.
A business process audit analyzes the company's work as a whole: people, stages, approvals, manual operations, and loss points. CRM audit checks an already installed CRM system: sales pipelines, fields, permissions, reports, and settings.
