Skandia Voice Pilot ROI · Lite Validation Model
Digital Employee Voice Pilot ROI
This interactive model estimates the pilot economics for a focused two-month validation of voice performance, Genesys connectivity, customer contactability and database-update impact before full production rollout.
Total Pilot Fee
$12,500
Two-month reduced-scope pilot. Credited toward full implementation if Skandia proceeds.
Phase 1 Payment
$6,000
Voice setup, Genesys connectivity and acceptance testing.
Phase 2 Payment
$6,500
One-month live outreach pilot with the approved contact base.
Included Voice Minutes
5,000
If the pool is exceeded, work pauses until Skandia approves extra calling.
Voice Overage
$0.45 / min
Charged only after approval and only above the included pool.
Default pilot assumptions: 3,000 contacts, 50% reached, 50% productive conversations, 50% basic data capture and 50% higher-quality enrichment. No ongoing monthly fee and no omnichannel event pricing.
Reached Customers
1,500
Customers reached by the Digital Employee.

Phase 1 · $6,000
Voice Setup & Acceptance Testing
Reduced-scope voice Digital Employee and initial knowledge base.
Genesys connection setup and test calls.
Tonality, latency, behavior and guardrail validation.
Phase 2 · $6,500
Live Pilot With 3,000 Contacts
One-month outreach sequence across days and times.
Capture approved fields and flag invalid/unreachable numbers.
Monitor contactability, productivity and data-update impact.
Scale Path
Credit Toward Full Implementation
100% of pilot investment credited if Skandia proceeds.
Next phase can add CRM updates, database management and reporting.
Creates a validated basis before full rollout.
Pilot Calculation Flow
The model follows the pilot funnel from selected contacts to measurable database-update impact.
1
Start base
Skandia provides a commercially usable contact base.
2
Reach customers
The Digital Employee connects through Genesys.
3
Qualify conversations
Reached customers move into productive conversations.
4
Capture value
Approved fields are captured or validated.
5
Validate ROI
Results support the rollout decision.

Shows the conversion path from the 3,000-contact base to reached customers, productive conversations, captures and enrichment.
Pilot Value vs. Cost
Pilot value
$15,063
Pilot cost
$12,500
Net value
$2,563
Compares estimated measurable value against the pilot cost. The pilot can also be credited toward the full implementation if Skandia proceeds.
Voice Minutes Usage
4,500 minutes used · 500 minutes remaining · $0 overage
The pilot includes 5,000 connected/spoken voice minutes. Overage only applies if extra minutes are approved.
Pilot Value Composition
Manual
$1,000
Capture
$7,500
Enrichment
$6,563
Value mix: avoided manual effort, basic data capture and higher-quality enrichment.
How value is generated
The pilot validates whether the Digital Employee can connect through Genesys, reach customers, create productive conversations and produce measurable database-update impact.
Contactability valueValidates whether the provided contact base is accurate and commercially usable.
Data-update valueBasic captures create value by improving contact quality and reducing outdated-record exposure.
Enrichment valueHigher-quality records support segmentation, advisory readiness and future CRM/database quality.
How cost is generated
The pilot has a fixed two-month fee and controlled usage governance.
Fixed pilot cost$12,500 total pilot fee: $6,000 Phase 1 + $6,500 Phase 2.
Included voice usage5,000 connected/spoken voice minutes are included.
Approved voice overagemax(0, connected voice minutes − 5,000) × $0.45/minute, only if approved.
No event pricingOmnichannel event pricing is removed from this model.
