smartGRC ROI calculator

Use this for a general GRC ROI view — CFO/CISO business case, or if you don't have SAP GRC today.

  • Audience: CFO, CISO, Head of Audit
  • Horizon: 1-2 year payback

book Shared assumptions and glossary
Consultant rate (EUR/day): Blended EU rate for senior SAP GRC consultants. Both calculators use the same slider — default 900 EUR/day. Range 600-1500 EUR/day covers junior to Big-4 partner rates.
MD (Man-Day): One consultant working an 8-hour day. Base SAP GRC 12 → 2026 migration averages 150-200 MD; add-ons 45-65 MD each.
smartGRC Enterprise subscription: Includes 5 modules (Access, SoD, Report, Review, Workflow) + AI agents (SoD Monitor, Session Audit, Anomaly Detection, GRC Copilot). Pricing depends on user count and modules; slider default ~40,000 EUR/year.
GRC Advisory partnership: When ON (default in cost calc), migration is absorbed by the parallel-run engagement — validated in 15+ signed enterprise references. When OFF, self-migration adds 20-60 MD × rate to Year 1.
AI token cost: LLM inference usage; default ~500 USD/month, converted to EUR at 0.92. Set to 0 if using an internal LLM (Bielik, on-prem Llama). Same assumption in both calculators.
Why the two calculators show different numbers: They measure different things. This one (ROI) measures broader business value: audit hours saved, FTE freed, faster remediation. The SAP GRC cost calculator is the sharp SAP GRC upgrade delta over 3 years. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Use both if you want the full picture.
FAQ

Frequently asked questions about ROI calculator

How accurate is the smartGRC ROI calculator? expand_more

The calculator uses real benchmarks from 15+ signed customer references (PCC Rokita, Volkswagen, AmRest, Cyfrowy Polsat). Inputs include SAP user count, current SAP GRC Access Control license cost, and audit recertification effort. Output is a 60-second estimate of year-1 savings and break-even timeline. Typical accuracy: +/- 15% versus actual signed contract value.

What does the calculator compare smartGRC against? expand_more

Default comparison is SAP GRC Access Control enterprise license (~250K EUR/year for mid-market) plus internal recertification effort. You can switch the baseline to Pathlock, Saviynt or SailPoint via the dropdown - each has its own published per-user pricing model that we mirror in the calculator.

Does the calculator include implementation costs? expand_more

Yes. smartGRC implementation is included in the annual fee (no hidden costs). For competitor comparison the calculator adds estimated professional services: SAP GRC AC ~100K EUR for typical 6-month rollout, Pathlock ~80K EUR, SailPoint ~120K EUR. Numbers come from publicly disclosed RFP responses and analyst reports (Forrester 2024, Gartner Magic Quadrant 2024).

Is the ROI calculator output suitable for board presentation? expand_more

Yes. After calculating, click "Download PDF" to get a 1-page summary with: your input assumptions, year-1 savings, 3-year cumulative savings, break-even month, and methodology footnote. The PDF is designed for CFO/CISO sign-off. Several customers used this exact PDF in their board approval process.

Can I get a custom ROI analysis for my specific SAP landscape? expand_more

Yes - book a 30-minute call with a senior consultant via the contact form. We will customise the model to your exact SAP modules, user count, recertification schedule, and audit obligations. The custom analysis includes detailed assumptions and is delivered as Excel + PDF within 5 business days.

What if my organisation already invested in SAP GRC AC? expand_more

The calculator includes a "sunk cost mode" where past SAP GRC AC investment is treated as fully amortised. In that case smartGRC ROI compares only ongoing license + maintenance fees (typically 18-22% of license cost per year) against smartGRC annual fee. Break-even is usually 4-8 months in this scenario.
