The base for ROI
We are not going to invent a savings number for you.
Every one of the 70 applications in this brief acts on a line that Kajaria already reports. Those lines are below, exactly as published. In the first four weeks we baseline the specific metric each application moves, using Kajaria's own data — and only then does a rupee number belong on a slide.

How the business case gets built
- 01Pick the metric. Each application names one operating metric — call resolution, dispatch accuracy, gas per square metre, days of receivables.
- 02Baseline it from Kajaria's own systems in weeks one to four. No benchmark, no proxy, no industry average.
- 03Run the quick win against that baseline for one quarter, with the finance team measuring, not us.
- 04Only then size the annual number, and only for what has actually moved.
