What Does The Service Audit Include?
A service audit is an assessment of the business's services. It can be directed at any aspect of your business, but it's typically focused on your customer experience and the way you deliver your products or services.
Your service audit will include an analysis of the following:
- Your service process and roadmap
- Your service tools and assets
- Your service pipeline
- Your service team
- Your service reporting
- Your service effectiveness

- Develop - Do the work. Build. Create. Put it together.
- Detect - What are the results? Publish intentionally and consistently. Use data to learn.
- Deepen - How can we make this better? Optimize.
Better Decisions Require Accurate Data…
Data is the lifeblood of your service team. It's the currency that allows you to move forward, and if it's not flowing freely, your business will suffer. With better data, your service team can make more informed decisions about how to handle customer problems and concerns. They'll also be able to predict what customers are likely to need in the future and be ready for it when it comes up.
…Turning That Data Into Strategy Require Expertise
We believe in creating a positive environment where you can feel comfortable asking questions and giving feedback as we work together to achieve your goals. Our experts have been handpicked based on their expertise in the field and their ability to work with clients. We also strive to be transparent about our processes so you know what you're getting into before you decide whether or not working with us is right for you.
We are here because we love what we do and want nothing more than for you to succeed!
Service Audit FAQs
To conduct a service audit, you need to first define your objectives and then choose the appropriate tools for measuring them. You can use surveys, questionnaires, interviews, or focus groups to gather information. Service audits should also include an analysis of financial data when it's available.
You may need a service audit to make sure that your business is operating effectively and efficiently, so that it can meet customer needs while also keeping costs down.
It depends on what kind of audit you have: full or partial. A full service audit will typically cost more than a partial one.
You should get an audit done whenever you're planning on making changes or improvements in your business operations. for example, if you're planning on adding new products or services, changing the way things are done in your office space, or implementing new technology systems across multiple departments within your organization.
We recommend that businesses conduct an annual internal service audit (internal) as well as an annual external service audit (external). This will help ensure that your organization is operating at peak performance levels throughout the year.
There are two main ways to set up a service audit: activity-based and process-based. An activity-based approach focuses on the steps involved in delivering the service, while a process-based approach focuses on what activities should occur to deliver the desired results. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages, but most businesses tend to use one or the other.
