HCM ROI Calculator

Hourly rate for every cohort is derived from their annual salary as salary ÷ (250 working days × 8 hours) = salary ÷ 2,080. Six savings buckets are then computed and summed:

1. Employee & manager self-service productivity. Every employee moves ~4 HR transactions a month (leave, payslip, letters, claims) online at ~12 minutes each; every manager clears ~30 approvals a month at ~5 minutes each. Time freed is valued at each cohort's own hourly rate and multiplied by the scenario's capture rate (Conservative 60% → Aggressive 90%, capped at 90%), then by 40% redeployment (freed minutes rarely convert 1:1 into recovered cash).

2. HR shared-services automation. HR handles ~3 transactions per employee per month at ~9 minutes each; hours freed are valued at HR's hourly rate and captured at the scenario rate.

3. Lifecycle & exits automation. ~10% of headcount go through a lifecycle event a year (~3 HR-hours + 1 manager-hour each); ~20% annual attrition drives offboarding (~4 HR-hours + 1 manager-hour each); ~15% of headcount are hired each year (~6 HR-hours per sourcing cycle). Effort is automated at the scenario's cycle rate.

4. Payroll & compliance accuracy. ~3% of employees need a payroll correction each month at ~₹400 per fix (error-cut rate applied); the monthly payroll run is ~24 person-days a cycle × 12 (run-auto rate applied); a baseline ₹1.5L annual compliance-penalty exposure is cut at the penalty-cut rate.

5. Attrition & hiring efficiency. Baseline 20% annual attrition × blended salary × 40% replacement cost is reduced at the modelled attrition-cut rate and further quarantined behind 15% attribution to HONO; early (90-day) attrition of ~10% of new hires at 25% of annual cost is cut at the scenario's early-attrition rate.

6. Print & legacy elimination. ~5 printed pages / employee / month at ₹3/page (paper-cut rate applied) and a baseline ₹250 / employee / year of legacy licence spend retired at the legacy-capture rate.

USD values are converted from INR at the live rate below (or a fallback of 1 USD = ₹84 if the FX fetch fails). This is a modelled estimate; your actuals will vary.
