Economic Impact Analysis
● Consistency
● Toil
● Risk
● Testing
● Automation

9. 9
Economic Impact
● Waste:
○ Possibly >30% (on a 450m budget) $135M wasted
on general processing.
● Consistency:
○ Another 10% to 15% on lost opportunity cost (low or
no automation) $45m to $67M
● Risk:
○ Negative Risk ROI.
