Workshop Optimization & DEP 720° Audit

From Congested Floors to High-Performing Workshops.

STC India’s proprietary DEP 720° Audit is a deep-dive diagnostic that uncovers hidden inefficiencies in your workshop — across layout, process flow, manpower movement, and machine utilization.

 

We don’t just spot issues.

We quantify losses, benchmark KPIs, and redesign your workspace with real-world solutions.

 

01

720° Workshop Efficiency Audit

Our proprietary DEP 720° Audit isn’t your average walk-through — it’s a deep-dive into every angle of your workshop’s performance. We analyze space usage, process flow, team movement, equipment placement, and output metrics — all in one powerful diagnostic.

 

We don’t just spot the problems. We quantify the losses and show you exactly where efficiency is leaking.

02

Space Planning + Inventory Flow

Poor space utilization = lost productivity.
We help you reclaim valuable square footage by redesigning how people, materials, and products move through your workshop.

 

  • Logical zoning for raw, WIP, and finished goods

  • Optimized inventory flow paths

  • Visual line marking and lean storage

Enhanced safety and accessibility

03

Production KPIs Benchmarking

We identify what truly matters — and measure it precisely.
Using industry benchmarks, real-time observation, and operational data, we help you track the KPIs that directly impact performance and profitability.

 

  • Output per man-hour

  • Machine uptime vs downtime

  • Rejection & rework percentages

Material-to-output ratio

04

Workshop Redesign Plans

Once insights are gathered, we build you a custom transformation blueprint. Whether it’s reorganizing workstations, reallocating utilities, or relocating storage — we give you a design that works on-ground, not just on slides.

 

  • CAD layout redesigns

  • SOP integration

  • Material flow simulation

  • Implementation support with your team

From chaos to clarity  your workshop becomes a model of precision and pace.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the DEP 720° Audit?

The DEP 720° Audit is STC India’s proprietary workshop diagnostic system. It analyzes your space, processes, manpower movement, and machine layout from every angle — identifying inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and hidden productivity leaks.

How is it different from a regular audit or walkthrough?

Unlike a general walkthrough, the DEP 720° Audit uses real data, custom KPIs, and operational benchmarks to quantify your losses and offer implementable, on-ground solutions — not just theoretical advice.

What areas of the workshop does the audit cover?

The audit covers:

  • Space and layout optimization

  • Inventory flow paths

  • Machine placement and operator movement

  • Process mapping and time study

  • Production KPI tracking (output/hour, downtime, rework, etc.)

What kind of improvements can I expect after the audit?

Post-audit, clients typically experience:

  • Up to 20–30% improvement in workflow efficiency

  • Reduced operator fatigue and waiting time

  • Better space utilization and material flow

  • Fewer production errors and bottlenecks

Do I need to shut down my workshop for the audit?

No, the audit is conducted alongside live operations. Our team works with minimal disruption to your day-to-day activities.
