Warehouse Audit
A warehouse is where operations meet reality. If controls here are weak, it doesn’t matter how clean your books look—errors, leakages, and inefficiencies will creep in.
At N D Savla & Associates, we audit warehouses with a focus on accuracy, control, and movement. We look at how inventory flows, how it’s recorded, and where things can go wrong.
This isn’t just about counting stock. It’s about understanding how your warehouse actually functions.
What we do
- Physical stock verification within warehouse premises
- Location-wise inventory checks (bins, racks, zones)
- Inbound & outbound process review (GRN, dispatch, returns)
- Stock reconciliation with ERP/WMS and accounting records
- Pick-pack-dispatch validation to identify operational gaps
- Cycle count evaluation and variance analysis
- Warehouse control review (access, authorization, documentation)
- Identification of slow-moving, damaged, or obsolete stock
Where this helps
- Reducing stock discrepancies and shrinkage
- Improving warehouse efficiency and accuracy
- Strengthening internal controls and accountability
- Supporting statutory audits and stock reporting
- Better planning for procurement and inventory management
Our approach
Here’s what usually happens. Systems say one thing, the warehouse tells another story.
So we:
- Walk through actual warehouse operations
- Trace inventory movement from entry to dispatch
- Test controls at every stage
- Highlight gaps that lead to losses or inefficiencies
You don’t just get a report. You get clarity on what’s working and what needs fixing.
F.A.Q.
It’s a detailed review of warehouse operations, stock accuracy, and internal controls to ensure inventory is properly managed.
Stock audit focuses on quantity and valuation. Warehouse audit goes deeper into processes, controls, and movement of goods.
It’s especially important for businesses with large inventory, multiple SKUs, or multiple storage locations.
Stock verification, storage systems, inward/outward processes, documentation, and control mechanisms.
Yes. It helps identify leakages, pilferage risks, and process inefficiencies.
Yes. We check how systems are used and whether records match physical stock.
Depends on size and complexity. It can range from a couple of days to a full operational review over weeks.
