What could getting that time back be worth?

Start with one repetitive task. Estimate the staff time it takes today, the time it could take after a change, and the costs of making it. Nothing you enter is stored or sent.

The task

Total across the whole team. Do not multiply again by headcount.

times a week

Combined time of everyone involved, not elapsed waiting time.

minutes

Include checking, exceptions and remaining administration.

minutes

Weeks this workflow operates. Set to 48; change it if your year differs.

weeks
Costs (optional, in GBP)

Leave a cost blank if you do not know it. Enter 0 only if there is genuinely no cost.

Blended employment cost for the people doing the task, not a selling rate.

per hour

Include external fees and internal setup, testing and training cost you want counted.

one-off

Incremental software, maintenance and support. Exclude existing costs that will continue unchanged.

per month

Your estimate

Enter your figures and select Calculate My Estimate. Or load the example to see how it works.

Time released is capacity you can use elsewhere. It only becomes a cash saving if your actual spending falls.
