Job management ROI calculator

Anyone who goes out and does the work: an electrician, an engineer, a fitter, a two-person team counted as two. Office staff are not operatives, though their time is what the admin-cost input is measuring.

The most reliable way is to pick one operative and one week, and count. Include the scheduling calls, the chasing, the re-keying of survey data into a DNO form, the quote written up in the evening, and the invoice raised days later. Most installers we speak to are surprised by how high it is once they count it honestly rather than estimating it.

It is deliberately below what we have seen, because a calculator that assumes a good outcome is not worth much. Costelloes Group described the change as taking hours of paperwork out of the working day, which is a bigger claim than 25%. Set the slider to whatever you would actually bet on.

Because an extra job is not an extra job’s worth of profit. It carries materials, labour and travel. Counting extra work at full revenue is the most common way an ROI calculator produces a number nobody believes. The default of 35% is a common gross margin on installation work, but yours is the one that matters.

No. The licence cost defaults to the installHUB Business price because that is the page you are on, but the field is editable and the maths is vendor-neutral. It is just as usable for building the case against buying anything, which is a legitimate answer.

No. The calculation runs entirely in your browser, there is no form submission, and there is no email gate. Nothing you enter is sent anywhere or recorded.
