Current annual manual cost is based on 47 working weeks and 1,880 working hours per employee. Gross saving = current manual cost × selected automation coverage. Year 1 ROI = (gross saving − implementation cost − annual running cost) ÷ (implementation cost + annual running cost). Payback uses the monthly net saving after recurring cost. This is a planning estimate, not a guaranteed return.
