The MAHD Advantage:
Project Roi estimator

Investing in process improvement should drive measurable business results. Based on experience and customer feedback, the MAHD Framework consistently accelerates time-to-market—delivering solutions, on average, 25% faster—while increasing customer value and reducing costs.

These benefits directly impact an organization’s bottom line. To estimate the potential ROI for one of your projects using the MAHD Framework compared to your current approach, use the Project ROI Estimator below. Simply input your project’s key variables to see the results. Hover over the information icon for more details on the input variable.

Directions for Using the Project ROI Estimator

1. Change the default basic project variables of investment (including R&D expenses and capital) and the estimated or typical duration of the investment before profit occurs. Note investment and profit periods are based on quarters. E.g. 1 year=4 quarters.
2. Change the default expected overall profit and the time frame this profit will occur. To keep it simple, the model assumes a normal distribution for both the investment and profit.
3. Enter the discount rate you typically use to justify a project (most companies use between 10% and 15%.) Enter 0 if do not want to discount the cash flows from profit.
4. Input the improvements you anticipate from implementing the MAHD Framework. On average, organizations achieve a 25% reduction in time-to-market. You can also apply the reduction in time directly to investment savings (this is set by default).  Estimating increased value can be more challenging, but consider factors like competitive advantage (reduced discounting), higher customer value, and lower costs.
5. After you make any changes be sure to click on “UPDATE RESULTS” to see the new numbers reflected.

Keep in mind, these results are from a single project. When extrapolated across multiple product releases and your entire portfolio, the impact compounds significantly. It becomes clear that adopting agile isn’t just a good investment—it’s essential for maintaining long-term competitiveness.
