    Frequently Asked Questions

    What's the average ROI of QHSE software?
    Mid-market deployments typically show 200-400% 3-year ROI when measured against conservative assumptions. Top quartile deployments exceed 600% by combining reporting efficiency, incident reduction, and audit cost savings.
    Why do you use 45% reporting reduction?
    Aggregated case studies (Velocity EHS, Cority, SafetyCulture, Tekmon) consistently show 40-60% reduction in time spent on incident reporting, audits, and compliance documentation. We use 45% as a defensible midpoint.
    How is incident reduction calculated?
    We default to your industry's recordable rate × employees × 15% reduction. Mature programs see 20-30%; we use 15% as the conservative first-year figure. Multiplied by $40K per OSHA-recordable (direct + indirect).
    What about audit savings?
    $50/employee/year covers reduced audit prep time, lower external consultant fees, faster certification renewal, and reduced finding remediation cost. Based on ISO 45001/14001 client data.
