💡 Why we built this
The story behind the resource.
""We need a business case for the board". Phrase we hear weekly. Most CFOs build cases by hand, omitting key variables or applying naive ROI without considering risk or payback. This calculator gives you the format, formulas, and 3 scenarios that a board accepts without discussion."

How to use it
It's not just downloading. It's using it well.
1. Define the project scope clearly first
Don't mix "ERP + CRM + e-commerce". Pick ONE. You can run the calc multiple times to compare.
2. Answer the maturity test honestly
The temptation is to rate yourself 70+. If you do, the projected ROI is unrealistic and the project will fail. Be brutal.
3. Use the simulator to find your killer assumptions
Drop "adoption rate" from 75% to 40%. Does NPV drop 60%? That's the critical thing to monitor in execution.
4. Take the result to your investment committee
NPV + IRR + Payback are the universal language of finance. Request the full Analyst dossier to present it.
