Methodology: Benchmarks are derived from real forestry operations in the Northeast US. Labor waste ratios (90% ticket-entry elimination, 70% reconciliation reduction, 50% AR reduction) reflect conservative estimates validated with mill accounting teams. Delayed payment cost uses a 6% opportunity cost rate. Error rate of 3–5% of loads is an industry-observed average for paper-based systems.
