SOPs for Granville businesses
Panel shops, mechanics and food businesses around Granville Station depend on repeat steps being done the same way each time. When an experienced worker is away, quality and safety can slip. We watch how the work is done and write short procedures: booking in a vehicle, recording damage and photos, checking a repair before handover, handling a warranty complaint, opening and closing the shop. For food and sweet shops, we document hygiene, labelling and stock rotation as checklists. For a supplier, we cover receiving, picking and delivery sign-off. Apprentices and new starters get a first-week guide, and each SOP is tested by someone who has not done the task before.
The business runs on what one or two people know. New staff take months to get up to speed, tasks get done differently each time and a sick day causes real problems.

SOPs in Granville: questions
Which workshop routines should be documented first?
Vehicle intake with photos, repair checks before handover and complaint handling. These happen on every job, and mistakes in them are costly, so they give the quickest benefit.
Can SOPs help train apprentices?
Yes. A short, illustrated checklist for each task gives an apprentice something to follow between demonstrations, and it frees up senior staff from repeating the same instructions.
Is Granville an easy trip from your Fairfield studio?
Yes. It is about 20 minutes away by car, so meetings at your workshop or shopfront, signage checks and photo shoots are easy to arrange. Many Granville trades also work across Parramatta and Merrylands, and we plan for that.
Where do the documents live?
In whatever you already use, such as Google Drive or Notion, so there's nothing new to learn.
