ESTIMATED NET CAPACITY PER WEEK

Potential time released after the new review effort.

Current handling time20.0 h / week
Handling + new review11.3 h / week
Annualized capacity451 hours

A planning estimate, not measured savings. Assumes a steady 52-week workload. Excludes setup, maintenance, monitoring, usage costs and any change in task volume.

How the estimate works

Weekly capacity = tasks × ((current minutes × assumed reduction ÷ 100) − new review minutes) ÷ 60.

With the example inputs: 100 × ((12 × 60% − 2) ÷ 60) = 8.7 hours per week. Negative results mean review would consume more time than the proposed change releases. Test the assumptions on a pilot before using the estimate in a business case.
