How this works in production

This calculator measures active checking waste. In social housing maintenance, utilities (gas, water, power) and civil engineering, managers are inundated with hundreds of weekly check sheets, near-miss forms and audit completions. Put an automated triage layer in front, such as Insight Agents or smart validation, and only the 15 to 20% holding a real anomaly or risk needs human sign-off.

1. Direct time savings

Multiplies the hours currently spent by the automated triage rate, releasing qualified managers back to high-value field work.

2. True loaded labour rate

Accounts for national insurance, pension, workplace overheads and true cost to company beyond nominal gross salary.

3. Re-deployable capacity

Translates abstract savings into tangible metrics: reclaimed workdays, site inspections and FTE equivalents.
