The costing structure is made up of a per device cost for the Universal Flow Tracker (UFT) and a subscription to the Logix Portal. It is determined on the level of subscription you sign-up with for the Portal aspect as well as the number of devices you ultimately purchase.

A good place to start when costing out the benefits versus costs is to ask yourself:

• What do I want to achieve? And why?
• What features do I need? And why?
• How much can I afford to spend?

Some examples of these questions might be:

• E.g. Am I trying to eliminate the time spent manual reporting?
• E.g. Do I actually need to maps weeds or do actually only need chemical volume tracking?)
• What is the cost of time saved doing this manually vs. automatically? What budget do I have to spend?
  
  

Before we jump into the actual costs, lets take a look at the benefits of the Rapid Logix Spray Logging System (SLS) and how these align with your needs and budget.

When you compare the multiple features of a quality automated spraying system with the old, manual systems you currently have, it quickly becomes obvious this is something you can't afford to NOT have!

Time is money and how much time do each of your operators (or yourself) currently spend:

• calculating chemical usage
• mapping and entering data points for treatment areas
• entering weather data
• filling out spray sheets - both job requirements and regulations
• calculating chemical usage and forecasting accurate requirements for future work
• following up your staff for treatment records
• creating spray and treatment reports for compliance
• connecting all the separate records for chemicals and weed map data
• providing proof of work documentation.

A Rapid Logix SLS is like having another set of hands, another pair of eyes and extra staff on the ground and/or in the office.

Imagine a system so intuitive that you will be completely freed from the time-consuming "busy-work" of fuddling around with manual data sheets and records. If you make a quick calculation of the time spent each day / week / month mapping and entering data, calculating chemicals, creating reports - the cost savings of a system that does this for is immeasurable!

Not only that, compliance (and the annoyance and worry of trying to keep perfect records) becomes a matter of simply pulling up data that is automatically created AS the jobs are being done! Export the data for easy reporting, or to input into your GIS system.

No more following up operators to provide proper records of data points or treatment areas. A Rapid Logix SLS will be doing this in the most difficult terrain, with the most complicated chemicals mixes, in any weather - and the information will be transmitted to head office AS the jobs are being done! 

The very short answer is:

• Hardware is a once-off cost.
• Ongoing data and software will depend on the number of device and features you require.

When considering if you can afford to take advantage of the benefits that a Rapid Logix SLS will bring, ask yourself if your current system has:

• accurate, shareable data including map visualization for proof of placement
• searchable historical records for complaints or compliance purposes
• completely accurate records of each chemical, the quantity and mixtures and how much each individual sprayer has used
• a true reflection of each operator’s performance
• having all the disconnected data and treatment records together in one place and easily accessible from any phone, tablet or computer

If it doesn’t, then is the initial outlay clearly outweighed by benefits a Rapid Logix system provides?
