What chasing certificates costs the program.

Enter your roster and the hours your team already spends. The model uses published DueFiles prices and assumptions you can change. It is a planning tool, not a quote.

Where the hours go

Reading the ACORD 25, hunting endorsements, explaining a gap to a broker who already issued the cert, and assembling a board or lender packet. Minutes per file become days per quarter once the roster grows.

What the model counts

Staff time on reviews, plus follow-up time for packets that need another request. Subscription cost uses the published band for your vendor count. Replace every example assumption with a value from your own records.

What it does not count

Insurance losses, payment holds, and delayed jobs. Those amounts depend on facts this calculator does not collect, so the dollar result covers labor only.

Assumptions, in the open

How accurate is this calculator?: It multiplies the hours and rates you enter by the time-reduction assumption you choose. The example starts at 75%, which is not a DueFiles performance claim. Replace it with a measured target for your process before using the result for planning.
Why does the example start with 70% needing follow-up?: It is an editable example, not a benchmark. Replace it with the share of packets that needed another request in your own review history.
Which plan does it pick?: Free through 10 vendors, Starter through 50, Pro through 200, Business through 750, matching published pricing. If you need SSO, API access, custom limits, or implementation support, write to sales.
