Ticket & Change Request Cost Model

For Inovaare customers who use the change request or ticketing process for dashboard and reporting updates. Enter your current numbers to see the annual cost of the ticket-based model — and your estimated saving with governed self-service.

Average number of new dashboard or report change requests your team raises each month.
How long it takes on average from ticket submission to final delivered dashboard.
Combined hours for requester (brief, review, revisions) and developer/analyst (build, revise, deliver).
Loaded cost per hour including salary, benefits, and overhead for staff involved in the CR process.
Average services cost charged per completed change request. Enter 0 if not applicable.
Tickets closed without completion because the team gave up waiting or stopped expecting delivery.

Your Estimated Annual Reporting Model Cost

Cost Breakdown

Internal staff cost (monthly)
External services cost (monthly)
Cost of abandoned tickets (monthly)
Estimated days of delayed decisions per month
Annual total (direct cost only)
Estimated payback period

How We Calculate This

Monthly staff cost = tickets/month × hours/ticket × hourly rate
Monthly services cost = tickets/month × services cost/ticket
Abandoned cost = abandoned tickets × average hours × hourly rate (sunk cost)
Annual total = (staff + services + abandoned) × 12
Estimated saving assumes 70% of current CR volume is self-serviceable with Designer Studio and a 12-month average payback period on investment.

Fragmented Reporting Cost Model

For health plans evaluating a move from fragmented BI environments to a governed analytics layer. Enter your current numbers across four cost components to see what fragmented reporting is costing your organization annually.

Separate tools or systems your team uses to produce compliance reports and dashboards (BI tools, data exports, spreadsheet environments, etc.)
Number of dashboards, reports, or executive summaries that are manually built or assembled across all tools each month.
Hours spent per dashboard or report build including data gathering, consolidation, formatting, and review.
Fully loaded cost per hour for analytics and reporting staff including salary, benefits, and overhead.
Hours spent pulling data from multiple systems and reconciling before executive meetings, board reviews, or leadership reports.
Number of business users who maintain their own spreadsheet-based reporting workarounds because they do not trust or cannot access official dashboards.

Your Estimated Annual Fragmented Reporting Cost

Based on the numbers you entered across four cost components. Most health plans are surprised by the total.

Annual Assembly Cost
Manual build & consolidation
Total Annual Cost
All four cost components
Estimated Annual Saving
With governed analytics layer

Cost Breakdown — Four Components

Component 1: Manual assembly cost (annual)
Component 2: Data consolidation cost (annual)
Component 3: Shadow analytics overhead (annual)
Component 4: Governance risk premium
Total annual cost (quantifiable components)
Estimated payback period

How We Calculate This

Assembly cost = builds/month × hours/build × hourly rate × 12
Consolidation cost = consolidation hours/month × hourly rate × 12
Shadow analytics cost = shadow users × 8 hrs/month (estimated workaround time) × hourly rate × 12
Governance risk premium = estimated contingent exposure based on tool count and shadow user count (Low / Medium / High)
Estimated saving assumes 65% reduction in assembly and consolidation time with a governed analytics layer. Payback period assumes mid-market deployment pricing.
