# The hours you get back, in money

Looking for information, retyping service reports, reconciling spreadsheets, chasing approvals and building reports. Tell us how much time goes into that and how much you expect to cut. We show you the whole calculation.

- Runs in your browser
- Formulas and assumptions in plain sight
- A link to share the result

### Shall we email you this calculation?

With your numbers, the result, the assumptions and the link to open it again.

### Shall we go over it with your numbers?

Bring us these numbers. We will show you attendo with your case and go over together which part of the result is realistic.

Copy the link with your numbers first and paste it into the form message: that way we arrive with the math already done.

## The whole calculation, in plain sight

It is an estimate based on your numbers. These are the formulas with the calculator’s numbers: they change with what you enter above.

### The math, step by step

Each line shows what we calculate, with which formula and with which numbers.

1. Hours a week on these tasks
   office staff × hours + field staff × hours
   `5 × 6 + 10 × 2` equals **50 h**
2. Hours a year
   hours a week × working weeks
   `50 × 45` equals **2,250 h**
3. Cost per year, today
   hours a year × cost per hour
   `2,250 × €25` equals **€56,250**
4. Hours you get back
   hours a year × reduction
   `2,250 × 25%` equals **562.5 h**
5. Savings per year
   hours you get back × cost per hour
   `562.5 × €25` equals **€14,063**

### Assumptions

- We only count the time spent on the tasks you tell us about. Technical work and customer service are not included.
- The time you get back is valued at your cost per hour. It is not cash leaving the bank: it is time your team spends on something else.
- If you enter the cost of attendo, we treat it as a yearly cost. The months to recover it come from spreading the year’s savings over 12 months.
- The reduction is the same for the office and the field.

### What we leave out

We leave it out so we do not inflate the result.

- The errors you stop making when nobody copies data by hand.
- Getting paid sooner because service reports arrive sooner. That is what the service reports and paperwork calculator is for.
- Better-served customers and renewals. They exist, but we cannot measure them with five numbers.

### Sample values and why

They are not industry averages or figures from a study: they are a starting point so you do not start from a blank page.

## Where the improvement comes from

The “with attendo” scenario is not magic: it comes from these features. You set the percentage.

### What comes in, comes in once

Tickets, emails, service reports and documents land on the same record. Nobody copies them from an email into a spreadsheet.

### Approvals with their own flow

The approval reaches the right person and is logged. No more chasing it by email.

### The service report arrives signed

The technician closes the service report in the app with photos, hours and signature. Nobody at the office retypes it.

### Reports that already exist

Reports come from the day’s data and are emailed whenever you schedule them. Nobody builds them on Friday.

What late tickets add up to per month and per year: contract penalties and the hours spent explaining and compensating.

Field Service

### [Service reports and paperwork](https://attendo.me/en/calculators/paper-work-orders)

The office hours spent retyping service reports and the money waiting to be invoiced in the meantime.

## Frequently asked questions

### Where does the 25% reduction come from?

It is a cautious starting point, not a measurement or a figure from a study. There is always work that does not get automated: reviewing, deciding and handling exceptions. Change it to whatever you think is reasonable, and try a lower value too.

### Why is the price of attendo not shown?

Because we do not publish prices on the website: they depend on the modules, the number of people and the implementation. If you already have a proposal, enter its annual cost and you will see the return and the months to recover it.

### Are the savings money I really save?

It is time valued at your cost per hour. It turns into money if that time goes to billable work or saves you a new hire. That is why we talk about hours you get back, not money coming in.

### How do I measure the hours spent on these tasks?

Ask two or three people to write it down for a normal week. Have them note the time spent looking for information, retyping service reports, reconciling spreadsheets, chasing approvals and preparing reports. One measured week is worth more than any average.

### Do you store the data I enter?

Not unless you ask us to email you the calculation. The calculation runs in your browser. The values stay in the page address so you can share the result: they only travel with the link if you share it. If you ask for the calculation by email, we keep your email address with the values and the result to send it to you, as the privacy policy explains.

## Go over the numbers with your operation

Tell us which tasks take up the most hours in your team. We will show you attendo with your document types and your processes, and go over together which part of the savings is realistic.

- With your operation, not a generic demo
