Calculation Methodology

Time Savings: (Hours saved per week × Staff hourly rate) + (Hours saved × Quality review percentage × Review time per output × Staff hourly rate)

Annual Savings: Weekly savings × 4.33 weeks/month × 12 months

Payback Period: (Implementation cost + Monthly tool cost) ÷ Monthly savings

ROI Percentage: (Annual savings ÷ Total investment) × 100
