What is a process audit and how do you find bottlenecks?
A process audit is a structured evaluation of how work actually happens across workflows to identify bottlenecks, rework, and inefficiencies. It helps operations leaders understand where time is lost, why SLAs are missed, and how to improve performance and customer satisfaction using real data. This guide explains how to audit operational workflows, what metrics to track, and how modern teams use digital work records to simplify audits, reduce manual effort, and maintain audit-ready processes.
