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 an account executive waits on a supplier for a connectivity, broadband or safeguarding quote, every hour of silence pushes revenue out. For MSPs serving Darlington schools and trusts, even a conservative 8‑working‑hour delay turns into dozens of lost quotes per month. That backlog means fewer school contract wins, stretched teams, and harder conversations about growth.
We calculate the financial impact at GBP 12.71 per hour based on 5 quotes per AE per day, an 8‑hour average supplier wait, and a 5‑day week. Multiply that across your team and the annual cost of slow supplier response becomes a management‑grade number. This isn’t a live quote — it’s an indicative baseline that you can refine inside your free MSP account.
The supplier-backed quote available to Edunet MSP account holders returns a live, ready‑to‑compare connectivity price for the school you’re quoting, removing the 8‑hour guesswork. That means your account executives can quote faster, win more, and stop treating supplier delay as normal. The calculator here helps you decide if it’s worth the conversation.
It turns an abstract problem — supplier delay — into an annual workload and cost estimate. You can then decide whether chasing faster quotes is worth the operational change.
No. This page gives an indicative delay cost. A live, supplier‑backed connectivity quote is available only inside the free Edunet MSP account, where you can get an annual price for the school you’re quoting.
