Indicative estimate only. Based on available public data, benchmark assumptions and information provided by the school. Final savings depend on current contracts, service requirements and supplier confirmation.
When your account executive waits for quote responses from education technology suppliers, it can reduce the time available for other accounts. For MSPs working with schools and trusts in Bradford, even conservative delays can add up. Our tool helps you quantify the effect in a straightforward way, so you can decide where procurement changes might help.
The calculator uses a set of baseline assumptions: five quotes per account executive per day, an average supplier wait of eight working hours, and a GBP 12.71 hourly cost. Over a five-day working week, this shows a cost that is indicative only. It does not use worst-case timings, so the result is a careful starting point for your commercial conversations.
Once you have an estimate of weekly quote delay costs, you can explore changes such as refining internal processes or testing faster-responding suppliers. Edunet gives you a real, supplier-backed live quote inside your free MSP account, so you can judge actual turnaround times for education connectivity services without waiting.
It multiplies the number of quotes your account executive processes each day by the average supplier wait time in hours and a baseline hourly cost rate, then projects across a working week. It is designed to start a conversation, not to replace detailed internal accounting.
Yes. Inside your free Edunet MSP account you can access a supplier-backed live quote for 1000Mbps annual connectivity, which removes the typical eight-hour wait and gives you a real, actionable number.
While we built it with Bradford education procurement patterns in mind, the same logic applies across the UK. You can use it wherever your MSP serves schools and trusts.
