Where the Leakage Comes From

Clarifying information (12 min/day)$4,950/mo
Re-entering data (10 min/day)$4,125/mo
Searching for documents (8 min/day)$3,300/mo
Waiting on approvals (6 min/day)$2,475/mo

This only measures time.

It does not account for the downstream damage that workflow friction causes, which is often where the real cost lives:

Rework from miscommunication
Missed deadlines and penalties
Change orders falling through cracks
Field crews idle, waiting on answers
Billing errors and revenue leakage
Employee frustration and turnover
