Hidden work can exceed license costs.

Recommended approach: Include seats, usage fees, implementation, migration, training, maintenance and switching costs.

How to validate: Estimate annual total cost per active client and workflow. Avoid claiming causation, rankings or outcomes that the evidence cannot support.
