Company snapshot

Rough estimates are fine — we'll refine on a call.
$
Your company's total rental + sales revenue in the last full year. Used to estimate billing leakage — money that should have been charged but wasn't (unnoticed shortages, missed late fees, rushed returns).
$
The depreciated value of your rentable inventory. This acts as a reality-check so we don't pretend the four categories below are everything — RFID covers way more.
Default: 1.25%. Applies to everything beyond the 4 categories below — tables, staging, tools, misc gear.
Rental companies typically lose 1–3% of non-tracked miscellaneous assets annually. We default to a conservative 1.25%.

Your inventory

Four common high-volume rental categories. RFID works for much more.
TTent tops
$
Low-frequency loss (1–2/yr).
CChairs
$
Small losses add up fast.
LLinens
$
Highest drift without check-in.
RDish racks
$
Fewer units, higher per-unit cost.

Operations & investment

Last step — just a few numbers about labor and delivery.
$
Blended rate for warehouse/yard staff who count, pick, and reconcile inventory.
Combined team hours weekly spent on manual counts, searching for items, reconciling returns, and re-verifying loads. A 3-person crew each spending 1hr/day = 15hrs/week.
Missing items, wrong items, short counts, or anything that triggers a re-delivery, refund, or scramble. Industry average: 1–3% of deliveries.
$
Includes re-delivery labor, fuel, replacement items, discounts/refunds, and reputational cost. Typical range: $200–$800.
$
Not sure? Leave the default — we'll build a precise quote during discovery.
Covers RFID readers, tags for initial inventory, software setup, and training. Most rental companies invest $15k–$40k depending on scale.

Where the savings come from

SShrinkage reduction
$0
Why this matters

What it means: Items that disappear, get tossed at events, or never reconcile back to inventory. RFID scan-in/scan-out makes every item accountable.

How we calculate it: Category-aware — tents lose slowly (1–2/year), chairs ~3%, linens ~5%, racks ~2%, other assets use your %. Each is reduced by 20–35%.

LLabor savings
$0
Why this matters

What it means: Hours your team spends counting, searching, and reconciling — time they could spend on revenue-generating work.

Formula: Weekly wasted hours × wage × 52 × 35% reduction. A full bulk count that took 4 hours can take 15 minutes with RFID.

EDelivery error reduction
$0
Why this matters

What it means: Wrong items, missing items, re-deliveries, refunds — every mistake costs real money and damages client trust.

Formula: Monthly mistakes × cost × 12 × 50% reduction. Scan-to-verify at load-out and return prevents "we thought it was on the truck" issues.

BBilling recovery
$0
Why this matters

What it means: Revenue leakage — money you should have charged but didn't (unnoticed shortages, missed damage fees, rushed returns, late fees).

Formula: Gross sales × 0.25%. A conservative "misc leakage" estimate. RFID gives you the evidence trail to bill accurately every time.

Your personalized summary

At your scale, RFID pays for itself in ~X months.

Based on your inputs, Easy RFID Pro could return roughly $0 in year one and $0 over five years. These are conservative estimates — most clients see additional benefits we haven't modeled here.
