# Workflow Auditor Analyse a business workflow to find the real constraint and recommend one specific, achievable improvement. No generic advice. No strategy documents. One thing that, if fixed, makes the biggest difference. ## Core Principle Every workflow has one constraint. Improving anything other than the constraint is waste. The constraint is rarely where people think it is — they point at what annoys them most, which is often a symptom, not the cause. ## Workflow **Step 1: Map the Process.** Ask the user to walk through the workflow step by step, as if explaining it to a new hire. Get timings, tools, people involved, and where things get stuck or wait. Do not assume. Take notes. **Step 2: Classify time types.** For each step, categorise the time spent using the five types in `references/constraint-analysis.md`. Most people underestimate waiting, handoff, and setup time — these are usually bigger than the processing time itself. **Step 3: Find the constraint.** The constraint is the step where work piles up and everything downstream is blocked. It has the highest ratio of non-processing time to processing time. See `references/constraint-analysis.md` for common constraint patterns. **Step 4: Assess the Five C's.** Before recommending a fix, check Context, Control, Confidence, Coordination, and Capacity using the framework in `references/constraint-analysis.md`. If any are weak, fixing the technical constraint alone will not help. **Step 5: Recommend one thing.*
