How the model calculates ROI

Transparent formulas make the business case easier to review and adjust.

Selection labor savingsMonthly cases × current minutes × reduction % × hourly labor cost ÷ 60

Quotation labor savingsMonthly quotations × current minutes × reduction % × hourly labor cost ÷ 60

Incremental gross profitMonthly quotations × conversion uplift % × gross profit per additional win

Intangible valueResponse value per case + monthly rework, experience, knowledge and governance values

ROI(Total benefits − total investment) ÷ total investment
