Average Automation Cost

To visualize the program's cost evolution, access one of the below charts available under the Average Automation Cost page:

1. By Cost Type: the chart reflects the average yearly cost of implementing and running an automation, broken down by cost type.

2. By Ease of Implementation: the chart reflects the average yearly cost of implementing and running an automation broken down by the ease of implementation and cost type.

   Item	Definition
   Easy (to implement)	Automations that have the ease of implementation percentage between 65% (including) and 100% (including).
   Medium (to implement)	Automations that have the ease of implementation percentage between 35% (including) and 65% (excluding).
   Difficult (to implement)	Automations that have the ease of implementation percentage between 0% (including) and 35% (excluding).

You can easily refine the information displayed on each dashboard by using the following filters:

• Submitter's Business unit
• Ease of implementation
• Submission Path
• Phase
• Status

• Categories as set up in the Admin Console by the System Admin.

Note: The automation ideas with no costs filled in, final Ease of Implementation not filled in the Cost Benefit Analysis page, or the ones in the Assessment phase (except for Awaiting Review status) are not included in this chart.

USD is just an example of currency on this page. The currency displayed for all chart values will be the one selected by the System Admin under Admin Console > Cost Setup page.
