Cost Prevention

Direct Labor SavingsRefers to the reduced manufacturing labor – Always use direct wages + benefits (27.5% average benefit costs)

Rework and scrap savingsCost of quality issues that required additional manufacturing labor and cost to rectify the problem. Includes the cost of quality issues that cannot be reworked. Top performers are around 0.6% business revenues. Worst performers are around 2.2% of business revenues and sometimes more.

Floor Space ReductionPrices per square foot to build manufacturing facilities often vary. Average cost may vary from $2100 per square meters or $200 per square foot up to $6400 per square meter or $600 per square foot. These savings are often realized when an automated solution produces more than a manual operation.

Employee RetentionThese savings are often realized when automating difficult working conditions. On average it costs $4129 and 42 days to fill an open position. The cost to hire increases proportionately based on the duration of the search.

Revenue Growth

Capacity GainRefers to the increase in revenues for the company due to the adoption of a 3D scanning solution.

Customer RetentionCost of sales and marketing divided by the number of new customers acquired.
