Calculate time potentially freed
Weekly team hours × 52 weeks × your assumed time reduction. For example, 20 hours per week and a 60% reduction gives 624 hours per year.

How this ROI calculator works
A simple undiscounted model, suitable for early vendor evaluation—not a financial forecast or guarantee.
Estimate the value of that time
Hours potentially freed × your hourly staff cost. This is the value of time available for other work, not necessarily a cash saving.
Compare costs only if useful
Add actual one-time and annual software costs. Indicative ROI = (total estimated benefits − total ownership costs) ÷ total ownership costs × 100. Additional ownership costs can include implementation, hosting and other recurring expenses.
What the model does not assume
The calculator does not assume a guaranteed time reduction, an AssetPrime price, or automatic payroll savings. ROI estimates assume constant annual benefits and costs and do not account for tax, inflation, discounting or rollout delays. Do not count the same ownership expense twice.

Frequently Asked Questions
ROI calculator FAQs
01How do I estimate the time saved with asset management software?
01
How do I estimate the time saved with asset management software?
Enter the total hours your team spends each week on manual asset tasks and your own estimated percentage reduction. The calculator multiplies weekly hours by 52 weeks and that percentage. It is a planning assumption, not an AssetPrime performance claim.
02Is the value of time saved the same as cash savings?
02
Is the value of time saved the same as cash savings?
No. The calculator multiplies hours potentially freed by the average hourly staff cost to estimate productivity value. That time might be used for other work instead of reducing payroll. Treat it separately from verified cash savings.
03How do I calculate asset management software ROI?
03
How do I calculate asset management software ROI?
Enter your quoted software purchase and annual support costs to compare them with the estimated value of time saved. You can also add implementation, hosting and other costs under Additional ownership costs. ROI is (estimated benefit minus ownership cost) divided by ownership cost, multiplied by 100.
04Does this calculator use official AssetPrime pricing or guaranteed savings?

Does this calculator use official AssetPrime pricing or guaranteed savings?
No. Example inputs are clearly labelled, and software costs are initially blank. Use your own business figures and a quotation. AssetPrime does not guarantee a particular reduction in time, losses or maintenance costs.
