EXCORA Operational Impact Assessment
This tool explores how the timing of operational information could affect service costs and outcomes. Results depend entirely on the assumptions entered.
Your inputs and assumptions
Starting values are for exploration only. They are not industry benchmarks or averages. Choose a range or type your own number.
Devices, branches, stores or safes you coordinate service for.
Times per month that a cash or service decision was affected because information arrived after a planning cutoff. Zero is a valid answer.
Extra cost when it happens, emergency trip, overtime, additional dispatch. Use your own figure if you have one.
Of those events, the percentage where someone could reasonably have known in time.
Of the identifiable events, the percentage where earlier notice would actually have changed the decision.
Total across all devices. Zero if not relevant.
Your own estimate of lost fees, customer impact or other cost per hour a device is unavailable.
A hypothetical figure for comparison. EXCORA pricing has not been set.

Under these assumptions the potential cost exceeds the potential value. That is a meaningful result.
Illustrative estimate based on the ranges and assumptions provided. Not a quote, forecast, or guarantee of savings.
Illustrative results. Annual late-event cost $45,000. Potentially addressable events 15 per year. Potential operational value $6,750. Potential EXCORA cost $15,000. Illustrative net value -$8,250. Illustrative ROI -55 percent.

How this is calculated
- Annual late-event cost
- Late events per month × 12 × incremental cost per late event.
- Potentially addressable events
- Late events per year × share identifiable before the cutoff × share the recipient could act on.
- Potential operational value
- (Addressable events × cost per late event) + (downtime hours per month × 12 × value per hour × the same two shares).
- Potential EXCORA cost
- The hypothetical annual cost you entered. Pricing has not been set.
- Illustrative net value
- Potential operational value − potential EXCORA cost. This can be negative.
- Illustrative ROI
- Illustrative net value ÷ potential EXCORA cost. Not shown when cost is zero.
There is no score, rating or hidden factor. If you set either share to zero, or late events to zero, the potential value is zero, a valid outcome that tells you EXCORA may not be useful for your operation.

Forecasting / Cash Optimization Context
This figure is not included in any result above. Reductions in idle cash usually come from forecasting and cash-optimization systems, and should not automatically be attributed to EXCORA. EXCORA is not primarily a forecasting product.
Approximate, ranges are fine.
Assumed share that better planning could release.
Your cost of funds or yield foregone.
Illustrative annual opportunity cost of reducible idle cash
$11,250
Service points × average cash × reducible share × opportunity rate
