tell your cfo the FTE math. we basically got a headcount back without hiring, that line lands better than a % tbh
Set expectations by the workload, not the slogan. Inventive AI reports up to 90% faster responses, and their AssetWorks case study cites 422% ROI and roughly 1.5 to 2 FTEs reclaimed. Our own result was smaller but real: a 100-question RFP that used to eat a full day now takes a couple of hours. The savings come from editing drafts instead of writing, so the messier your process, the bigger the jump.
for us the roi wasn't just time, win rate went up bc we stopped rushing and submitting sloppy responses at 11pm
