How to read this

  • Payback under 6 months - almost always a yes. Ship it.
  • Payback 6-12 months - solid investment if the workflow is stable.
  • Payback 12-24 months - only worth it if you're confident the process won't change. Otherwise scope smaller.
  • Payback over 24 months - wrong project. Either the build is too big or the savings are too small.
