Buyer-validated ROI calculation
Every driver is shown independently. Open each line to see the study evidence, validation input and modelling boundary.
Learning and training-team administrationReleased capacity4 staff × £45,000 × 35%£63,000
Study-backed evidence first. The UK Employer Skills Survey records £53 billion of annual employer training expenditure and widespread use of online learning. The calculator does not turn those national figures into savings: it applies the editable capacity-release percentage only to the training-team cost entered by the buyer.
Validate with buyer data. Treat this as released capacity unless payroll or external administration spend will genuinely be removed. Validate it with a before-and-after time study.
Boundary. Treat this as released capacity unless payroll or external administration spend will genuinely be removed. Validate it with a before-and-after time study.
Shorter, targeted trainingReleased capacity1000 employees × 18 hrs × £24/hr × 20%£86,400
Study-backed evidence first. UK employers reported an average 5.7 training days per trainee in 2024. HSE guidance says training should be relevant, effective and appropriate to the work. The model values only an editable reduction in the organisation’s own paid training hours.
Validate with buyer data. The evidence establishes the scale and need for relevant training, not a universal duration saving. Confirm the percentage by comparing equivalent courses without reducing required competence or assessment.
Boundary. The evidence establishes the scale and need for relevant training, not a universal duration saving. Confirm the percentage by comparing equivalent courses without reducing required competence or assessment.
Flexible self-directed learning capacityReleased capacityRemaining scheduled learning cost × 10% flexible share£34,560
Study-backed evidence first. Seven in ten UK employers that provided training used online or e-learning in 2024. This supports flexible delivery as an established method; the calculator still values only the share of scheduled release time that the buyer confirms is genuinely replaced.
Validate with buyer data. Do not count mandatory unpaid learning. HSE guidance says health and safety training should take place during working hours and be free to employees.
Boundary. Do not count mandatory unpaid learning. HSE guidance says health and safety training should take place during working hours and be free to employees.
Manager and team-leader administrationReleased capacity150 people × 3 hrs/week × 52 × £38/hr × 25%£222,300
Study-backed evidence first. Recent NBER research across three firms found that middle-manager behaviour was closely tied to training participation and was associated with employee performance and absence. SKRIXX can centralise assignment, evidence and follow-up, but the model values only the buyer’s entered manager hours and editable reduction.
Validate with buyer data. This is released capacity, not automatic payroll saving. Measure the same recurring tasks before and after a controlled pilot.
Boundary. This is released capacity, not automatic payroll saving. Measure the same recurring tasks before and after a controlled pilot.
SOP revision and acknowledgement workflowReleased capacity24 updates × 4 hrs × £38/hr × 50%£1,824
Study-backed evidence first. HSE guidance requires relevant training and refreshed competence when work equipment or working practices change. The calculator models the organisation’s own time to distribute revisions, identify affected people, assign learning and collect evidence.
Validate with buyer data. No external percentage is treated as proof of workflow savings. Validate update volumes and administration time from document-control records.
Boundary. No external percentage is treated as proof of workflow savings. Validate update volumes and administration time from document-control records.
Better-trained workforce productivityReleased capacity1000 employees × £24/hr × 1650 hrs × 1.5%£594,000
Study-backed evidence first. British industry panel research found that a one-percentage-point increase in the proportion of workers trained was associated with about 0.6% higher value added per hour. OECD research also links skills mismatch with lower labour productivity. The calculator therefore uses a deliberately smaller editable capability-productivity uplift than broad 10–30% warehouse claims.
Validate with buyer data. This is independent evidence for the mechanism, not a claimed SKRIXX outcome. Expected package assumptions range from 1% to 2%, remain capped at 3%, and should be replaced by measured throughput, quality or cycle-time results from a pilot.
Boundary. This is independent evidence for the mechanism, not a claimed SKRIXX outcome. Expected package assumptions range from 1% to 2%, remain capped at 3%, and should be replaced by measured throughput, quality or cycle-time results from a pilot.
Direct employee replacement cost avoidedAvoided cost and risk110 leavers × £5,000 × 20% fewer leavers£110,000
Study-backed evidence first. Retention assumption: capped at 20% fewer leavers. Independent research supports recognition, development and internal mobility as retention mechanisms, but the calculator does not present them as a guaranteed SKRIXX result.
Validate with buyer data. Use the organisation’s voluntary-leaver count and direct replacement cost. Pay, management, working conditions and the wider employee proposition also affect turnover.
Boundary. Use the organisation’s voluntary-leaver count and direct replacement cost. Pay, management, working conditions and the wider employee proposition also affect turnover.
Retained experience and productivityReleased capacity22 avoided leavers × £3,780 ramp-up productivity value£83,160
Study-backed evidence first. This value is calculated from avoided leavers multiplied by the buyer’s own weeks-to-competence, working hours, labour cost and new-starter productivity gap. It separates retained experience from direct recruitment cost.
Validate with buyer data. There is no universal external percentage in this line. Use payroll, onboarding and operational performance data, and do not repeat productivity loss inside the direct cost per leaver.
Boundary. There is no universal external percentage in this line. Use payroll, onboarding and operational performance data, and do not repeat productivity loss inside the direct cost per leaver.
Faster new-starter time to competenceReleased capacity88 remaining starters × £3,780 ramp-up value × 25%£83,160
Study-backed evidence first. Research supports a connection between training participation and employee performance, while HSE defines competence as training, skills, experience, knowledge and the ability to apply them. The calculator applies the editable acceleration only to remaining new starters.
Validate with buyer data. Validate time to competence by role using assessments and operating measures. Course completion alone is not evidence of competence.
Boundary. Validate time to competence by role using assessments and operating measures. Course completion alone is not evidence of competence.
Technology and tool consolidationCashable cost£180,000 current annual cost × 25%£45,000
Study-backed evidence first. This is a procurement calculation: current annual contracts multiplied by the editable share that can genuinely be retired, consolidated or avoided.
Validate with buyer data. Use invoices, renewal dates, exit costs and confirmed implementation scope. External research is not substituted for buyer-specific contract evidence.
Boundary. Use invoices, renewal dates, exit costs and confirmed implementation scope. External research is not substituted for buyer-specific contract evidence.
Capability-aware rota gap reductionAvoided cost and risk120 issues/month × £650 × 12 × 20%£187,200
Study-backed evidence first. Capability-aware allocation can surface whether people are available and ready before assignment. SKRIXX has repeatedly stress-tested allocation of 500 staff in approximately 15 seconds on a development laptop; that demonstrates tested processing performance, not a customer cost outcome.
Validate with buyer data. Value only verified rota or capability gaps and their direct overtime, agency, delay or lost-output cost. Confirm the reduction in a controlled operational pilot.
Boundary. Value only verified rota or capability gaps and their direct overtime, agency, delay or lost-output cost. Confirm the reduction in a controlled operational pilot.
Operational capability-error reductionAvoided cost and risk45 errors × £900 × 15%£6,075
Study-backed evidence first. HSE defines competence as the combination of training, skills, experience and knowledge applied to perform work safely. The model links validated capability to an editable reduction in operational errors recorded by the buyer.
Validate with buyer data. Evidence supports the competence mechanism, not a standard error-reduction percentage. Use quality, rework, scrap or service-recovery records and exclude compliance incidents counted elsewhere.
Boundary. Evidence supports the competence mechanism, not a standard error-reduction percentage. Use quality, rework, scrap or service-recovery records and exclude compliance incidents counted elsewhere.
Compliance incidents avoidedAvoided cost and risk20 incidents × £3,500 × 15%£10,500
Study-backed evidence first. A NIOSH systematic review found strong evidence that occupational safety training improves knowledge, skills, attitudes and safe work practices. HSE estimates show that workplace injury and ill health carry substantial economic cost.
Validate with buyer data. NIOSH also found insufficient high-quality evidence that training alone reduces injuries. Count this only as avoided risk and validate it alongside management commitment, hazard controls and worker involvement.
Boundary. NIOSH also found insufficient high-quality evidence that training alone reduces injuries. Count this only as avoided risk and validate it alongside management commitment, hazard controls and worker involvement.
Other non-compliance cost reductionAvoided cost and risk£150,000 separate annual cost × 15%£22,500
Study-backed evidence first. HSE identifies investigation, downtime, overtime, temporary labour, damage and lost expertise among the visible and hidden costs of incidents. The calculator uses only the buyer’s separately entered annual remediation and non-compliance cost.
Validate with buyer data. Exclude costs already entered under incidents or operational errors. Fines and rare events should be probability-weighted rather than treated as certain savings.
Boundary. Exclude costs already entered under incidents or operational errors. Fines and rare events should be probability-weighted rather than treated as certain savings.
How to read this model: cashable cost can reduce actual spend; released capacity only becomes financial value when time is productively redeployed; avoided cost and risk is probability-weighted exposure rather than guaranteed cash.
Measurable annual value by driver
This is an evidence-supported model, not a forecast or customer outcome. Validate assumptions through discovery or a controlled pilot, identify which capacity can be redeployed and only count costs the organisation can actually avoid.
INDEPENDENT WORKFORCE RESEARCH
Evidence behind the modelled workforce value.
This calculator is an illustrative model, not a published outcome, forecast, audited result or guaranteed SKRIXX outcome. Replace defaults with verified organisation data before using it commercially.How SKRIXX uses this evidence
The research validates the underlying drivers - progression clarity, internal mobility, recognition, engagement and structured development. It does not prove that SKRIXX alone will reproduce any individual study result, and the ROI figures shown by SKRIXX are modelling illustrations rather than customer published outcomes.
A 20% turnover-reduction scenario is therefore presented as an illustrative upper-end modelling assumption, not a guaranteed software outcome. Actual results depend on implementation, adoption, leadership, pay, working conditions and the wider employee proposition.
Deloitte Global Human Capital Trends supports the wider strategic importance of capability building, adaptability, culture, trust and workforce resilience. No specific turnover percentage is attributed to Deloitte.

Supporting note guide used in the ROI calculator
The notes below explain the evidence themes used behind the modelled ROI assumptions. They are written for customer and investor diligence, separate regulatory relevance from saving mechanisms, and should be replaced with organisation-specific data wherever available.
Training and L&D administration
Supports: Supports released capacity from training coordination, scheduling, completion tracking and record maintenance.
The UK Employer Skills Survey shows that employer training is a large recurring cost base. SKRIXX only applies the editable reduction to the buyer’s own entered L&D or training-team cost.
Learning efficiency and ramp-up
Supports: Supports shorter targeted training, flexible delivery and faster time-to-competence.
UK training data, HSE training guidance and competence guidance support relevant, targeted and flexible learning as a mechanism. The calculator values only the buyer’s own paid training hours and ramp-up assumptions.
Manager coordination burden
Supports: Supports time released from reconciliation, chasing evidence and action coordination.
Research on training within firms links middle-manager behaviour with training participation, performance and absence. The calculator does not assume automatic payroll savings; it values only entered manager hours and an editable reduction.
Turnover and replacement cost
Supports: Supports direct leaver cost avoidance and retained experience value.
LinkedIn, Gallup, Workhuman and McKinsey evidence supports the retention mechanisms behind clearer progression, recognition, internal mobility, onboarding and development. The calculator caps the turnover-reduction assumption at 20% and asks buyers to use their own leaver count and replacement cost.
Capability matching and productivity
Supports: Supports productivity uplift and reduced rota / capability gaps.
IFS and OECD research supports the link between training, skills match and productivity. Warehousing guidance also highlights the operational importance of competent equipment use and site activity. The model uses a cautious editable uplift rather than broad productivity claims.
Compliance and operational risk
Supports: Supports SOP workflow savings, capability-error reduction and compliance-cost avoidance.
HSE competence guidance, NIOSH safety-training research and HSE incident-cost material support the mechanism that better training, procedure control and traceability can reduce exposure. The model still uses buyer-entered incident, error and cost volumes.
Technology and tool consolidation
Supports: Supports buyer-validated cashable value from retiring or avoiding duplicate systems and manual tooling.
This is a procurement calculation rather than a benchmark. Buyers should use invoices, renewal dates, exit costs and confirmed implementation scope to decide what can genuinely be consolidated.
Buyer-specific invoice and contract evidence should be used for this line.
