Notes & Assumptions

Saved hours = (Projects/yr × Submittals/project × Hours/submittal) × effort reduction.
Time/Cost Rejection Savings = [(Total submittals × Rejection rate × Cost/rejection) × Rejection reduction] + [(Total submittals × Rejection rate × Hours/submittal) × Rejection reduction × Loaded labor rate].
Total Value = Time/Cost Rejection Savings + (Saved hours × PM revenue $/hr).
