How this is calculated

  • Yearly manual cost = people × hours per week × 52 × loaded hourly cost, plus 12 months of error and rework cost.
  • Savings = the share you choose that can be automated, applied to both labor and rework.
  • Net first-year savings = gross savings − project cost − 12 months of any support plan.
  • Payback = project cost ÷ monthly savings after support costs. It's blank if the numbers don't pay back.
