How the math works.
Labor recovery = users × hours/week × 52 × hourly rate × 60% adoption efficiency. The 60% factor is intentional: theoretical hours saved rarely convert 1:1 to recoverable capacity in year one.
Software consolidation = current monthly spend × 12 × 50%. Most clients don't retire 100% of replaced tools — some are kept for niche workflows. We model the half that typically goes away.
Implementation range comes from revenue-tier benchmarks: under $10M lands $40k–$80k; $10–50M lands $80k–$200k; $50–200M lands $200k–$500k; over $200M lands $500k–$1.5M. These cover configuration, data migration, integrations, custom dev, training, and PM.
License cost is blended at ~$100/user/month across a typical Customer Engagement + Business Central + Power Platform mix. F&O-heavy scenarios cost more; CE-only runs less.
3-year ROI = (3-yr benefit − 3-yr total cost) ÷ 3-yr total cost. Total cost = implementation midpoint + (annual licenses + 15% support) × 3.

Calculator questions.
How accurate is this ROI calculator?
It's a directional estimate, not a quote. The calculator uses conservative industry assumptions: 60% adoption efficiency on theoretical labor savings, 50% software consolidation rate, blended Dynamics 365 license cost of ~$100 per user per month, and implementation ranges by revenue tier. Real-world ROI depends on scope, current systems, change management, and product mix.
What goes into the implementation cost range?
The range covers configuration, data migration, integrations, custom development, training, and project management. We size by revenue band: under $10M typically lands at $40k–$80k for focused Business Central deployments; $50–200M revenue tier runs $200k–$500k for multi-module rollouts; enterprise scenarios run higher.
Why 60% adoption efficiency on the labor savings?
Even with great change management, theoretical hours saved rarely convert 1:1 to recoverable capacity. Some hours go to higher-value work, some get reabsorbed into adjacent tasks, and the first six months always involve learning. 60% is the conservative recovery rate we plan against on real engagements.
Does this include Power Platform and Azure costs?
The blended license assumption covers a typical mix of Dynamics 365 + Power Platform user licenses. It does not include Azure consumption (compute, storage, IoT), which depends heavily on use case. We'll factor those in during a personalized estimate.
