How to read the figure

Time capacity is not automatically a cash saving or additional revenue.

Annual hours = team × repetitive hours per week × efficiency × 52. Annual productivity value = those hours × your hourly value. Return = (annual value − first-year investment) ÷ investment × 100. It assumes the same workload for 52 weeks; adoption and actual cash costs can change the outcome.

The original R144,000 default and R12,000/month reference were illustrations, not interchangeable offers. A managed service has its own scope and commitment. This calculator now asks for a total first-year assumption; only your written proposal establishes the price and included services.
