AI TRANSFORMATION ROI · BUSINESS-CASE TOOL
Put numbers
behind the AI decision.
Estimate the value of time a workflow might release, then compare it with implementation and running costs. Replace every sample assumption with your own.
Your assumptions
Sample figures only. None are a Vimicoach quotation or forecast.
ILLUSTRATIVE ANNUAL SCENARIO
- Time capacity recovered
- 276 hours
- Gross time-capacity value
- RM11,040
- Net capacity value after running cost
- −RM960
- Capacity-value payback
- Not reached
Time capacity is not cash savings. Cash payback needs evidence of reduced spending or additional contribution margin.
A return needs a route to value.
If five people spend four hours a week on a workflow, recovering 30% across 46 working weeks releases 276 hours. At RM40 per hour, that is RM11,040 of annual capacity value. With RM12,000 in annual running costs, this example does not cover its ongoing cost on time value alone.
The calculator assumes the same recovery rate throughout the working year. Include review time, training, integration and support in your costs. It excludes implementation ramp-up, financing, taxes and revenue gains. Do not count the same hours as both payroll savings and extra capacity.
Capacity-value payback = setup cost ÷ (positive net annual capacity value / 12)
A pilot should test the assumptions. We discuss which workflow, baseline and evidence would make a business case credible before recommending a wider rollout.
