Schedule DiscoveryMethodology Notes
- Loaded hourly rate = (annual salary × 1.28) / 2080 working hours. The 1.28 multiplier covers benefits + employer taxes + overhead.
- Hours saved per week from EPC Group's 200+ deployment benchmark: 2-4 hours per knowledge worker. Use 2.5 for conservative business case.
- 48 weeks per year accounts for PTO + holidays (vs 52 working weeks).
- License tiers: Copilot Add-on = $30/user/mo on top of existing E3/E5. M365 E7 = $99/user/mo bundled. CSP Promo = $84.15/user/mo through Dec 31 2026.
- Year 3 net assumes flat productivity gain and flat licensing. Productivity often compounds (Year 2-3 are higher) and licensing renegotiates downward at scale.
