Operations Clarity Audit

A focused operational review designed to surface the bottlenecks, unclear workflows, founder dependency, and missing systems that are quietly holding the business back.

This is not a surface-level assessment or a generic checklist. It is a detailed, hands-on review of how your business actually runs — conducted by Michelle Craigen, who brings over 20 years of enterprise operations experience at IBM and Amazon to every engagement.

Operations Clarity Audit — strategic process analysis

Who This Is For

Built for founder-led service businesses that know something is not working — but cannot pinpoint exactly what.

The Operations Clarity Audit is designed for service businesses that have grown past the point where informal processes and the founder's personal involvement can hold everything together. Revenue is coming in. The team is working hard. But things feel harder than they should.

If you have a nagging sense that your operations are not keeping pace with your growth — that the business is running you instead of the other way around — this audit is built for exactly that moment.

Common Signs

Signs your business may need an operational review

You are personally involved in almost every decision and process

New hires take weeks or months to become productive

Client experience varies depending on who handles the account

The same operational problems keep resurfacing

You cannot take a week off without things slipping

Your team frequently asks questions that should already have documented answers

Handoffs between roles or departments regularly drop details

Growth feels harder than it should — not because of demand, but because of internal friction

What We Review

The audit examines the workflows, handoffs, documentation, and systems behind your day-to-day business — the ones that determine whether your team executes cleanly or scrambles constantly.
