Outputs
The output is meant to be operational, not theoretical. It should create the evidence and direction needed to make the next move cleanly.
A working view of the current acquisition, follow-up, reporting, and operations stack.
A diagnosis of leaks, friction points, trust gaps, and system mismatches.
The current performance picture that future improvements can be measured against.
A clearer picture of how the system should be structured instead.
A sequenced plan for what to build, what to fix, and what to control next.
Method
The audit is still run through the broader Formulation method, but it concentrates on the diagnosis and architecture layers.
Map the system, find the leaks, set the baseline.
Design the fix and the control points.
At the end of the audit, the business should know whether to build, in what order, and under what control model.
Start here
If the main problem is still diagnosis, not production capacity, the audit is the correct first move.
