BQCIS

Optimizing Flow and Securing Critical Distribution Nodes

Distribution centers and warehouses are vital links in the supply chain. Inefficiencies or control gaps here lead directly to increased cost, inventory risk, and delays. A detailed logistics audit ensures these facilities operate at maximum efficiency while maintaining world-class security and compliance.

BQCIS provides end-to-end auditing for logistics networks and storage hubs, covering TAPA, C-TPAT security, Lean Logistics process efficiency, occupational safety, and inventory integrity. Each audit identifies gaps, quantifies loss risks, and issues prioritized corrective actions.

Our holistic approach supports 3PLs, manufacturers, and retailers by delivering actionable recommendations that minimize waste, strengthen cargo protection, and ensure full operational transparency.

Key Audit Activities

Security & Compliance Audits (TAPA, C-TPAT)

Comprehensive assessment of perimeter, access control, CCTV, and cargo-handling zones against TAPA FSR and C-TPAT standards. Includes personnel vetting, seal management, and incident response verification to ensure full cargo-theft resilience and compliance certification.

Operational Efficiency & Process Optimization

End-to-end workflow audit covering receiving, storage, picking, packing, and dispatch. Using Lean Logistics and Six Sigma metrics, we identify bottlenecks, improve slotting logic, and enhance material-flow efficiency for measurable cost and time savings.

Key Benefits of Logistics Audits

Benefit 1

Enhanced Security Compliance

Meets international cargo-security standards (TAPA, C-TPAT) and mitigates theft or tampering risks in global logistics chains.

Benefit 2

Improved Process Efficiency

Identifies operational bottlenecks, optimizes warehouse layout, and enhances throughput for faster, leaner fulfillment.

Benefit 3

Reduced Operational Costs

Streamlined workflows and data-driven inventory control lower labor, energy, and loss-prevention costs across facilities.

Benefit 4

Audit-Ready Transparency

Delivers clear documentation and traceability for client, insurer, and regulatory audits, reinforcing brand credibility.

Success Story

Warehouse Audit Slashes Picking Errors & Boosts Efficiency

The Challenge:

An electronics distributor faced high labor costs and frequent fulfillment errors due to inefficient warehouse layout and outdated picking practices.

Our Solution:

BQCIS conducted a Lean workflow audit, mapped value streams, and analyzed slotting accuracy and travel distance. We re-engineered layout and sequencing to minimize motion waste and re-balance workload distribution.

The Result:

Picker travel distance dropped by 20%, accuracy improved by 15%, and annual labor savings exceeded 10%. The optimized layout also enabled smoother digital WMS integration for continuous improvement tracking.
