Status Audit and Gap Analysis

Every successful intervention should commence with an evaluation of current status. It is therefore suggested that prior to proceeding with the development of a formal Management System, detailed information pertaining to the existing business processes and organisational procedures (formal or informal) is acquired. 

The method used to obtain this information takes the form of a process assessment and system audit. At least one member of the clients’ management is typically included as part of the audit/assessment team.

This ‘health check’ is used as input to a detailed project plan and position report which indicates the overall status of the client’s management system.

Important aspects such as identification of key business processes and their definition, areas for improvement relating to business process, human resource or hardware all assist in the subsequent development of the formal system
