The estimator turns a few planning figures — operators assigned, shifts, loaded labour cost, investment and maintenance — into a potential labour-cost impact, an estimated annual benefit and a simple payback period, with the formula shown under every result.
It is a planning estimate, not a quotation. An engineer can refine it against your own data.
