How we calculate this

Current cost = Questionnaires per year x Hours per questionnaire x Hourly staff rate

Projected cost = (Current cost x 20%) + Annual subscription (AnswerVault reduces response time by approximately 80% by reusing existing answers and evidence)

Annual savings = Current cost - Projected cost (includes subscription)

ROI = Annual savings / Annual subscription cost x 100

The 80% time reduction is based on the typical improvement seen when moving from manual, ad-hoc questionnaire responses to a structured, reusable answer vault. Your actual results may vary depending on the complexity of your questionnaires and the maturity of your existing ESG content.
