Costs of implementing project
There is not really a cost savings;
it’s more of an efficiency savings.

The current process of sending follow-up notifications to applicants, who have been
incomplete for 45 days and 90 days, is a five-step process within three different computer
systems. Each entry term (spring, summer and fall) must be ran individually, which adds
to the amount of time it takes. Because it is so time consuming, what should be a daily
task, has become a weekly one.
Y = process time. Defect occurs when process time is 5+ steps.
Stream line the follow-up procedure to improve/condense processing time.
