Operational health check

Find Out What’s Holding Your Trade Business Back

A practical Operational Health Check to help you see what needs improving – and where to start.

You know your trade. But when you’re busy getting jobs done, keeping customers happy and catching up on admin, there’s rarely time to step back and look at how the business runs.

Office Shed’s Operational Health Check gives you an experienced outside view of your systems, processes and day-to-day operations, with a detailed report to help you decide what to tackle next.

Is this you?

Has Your Business Grown Faster Than Your Systems?

A spreadsheet here. A workaround there. Another task that only you know how to do.

It’s understandable. You’ve been focused on bringing in work and delivering it. But the systems that helped you get started may now be making the business harder to run.

You don’t need to guess what needs fixing first.

The Health Check helps you identify the gaps, bottlenecks and opportunities so you can make informed decisions about improving your operation.

What We Look At

Six Areas. One Clearer View of Your Business.

We assess six key areas of your trade or service business and bring the findings together in your Operational Health Check report.

Systems & Job Management

Do your systems support the way your team works, or create extra steps?

Quote to Cash Process

How smoothly does work move from the first quote through to getting paid?

Admin & Back Office

Where are repetitive tasks, workarounds or handovers slowing you down?

Sales & Marketing

How are you managing enquiries and the activity that brings in new work?

People & Recruitment

How are your people and recruitment processes supporting the operation?

Financial Visibility

Do you have a clear enough view of the numbers to make informed decisions?
