Management & Leakage Audit — Remote Cost & Margin Review
Independent review identifying where cost, margin, or cash is leaking out of the business, delivered remotely
Overview
Management & Leakage Audit combines an independent review of how effectively an organisation is managed with a focused investigation into where cost, margin, or cash is leaking out of the business — through inefficient processes, uncontrolled discounting, vendor overbilling, inventory shrinkage recorded but never investigated, or duplicated and unauthorised expenses. Unlike financial or statutory audit, this engagement is not primarily concerned with the accuracy of reported numbers but with the gap between what the business should be earning and what it actually retains. Delivered through remote data review and structured video interviews with department heads rather than an on-site walkthrough, this audit is particularly useful for Boards and promoters who sense that margins are thinner than they should be but don't have a clear, evidence-backed explanation of where the leakage is occurring.
