Integrator Profit Calculator

“Higher Margins. More RMR. Fewer Headaches.”
A financial modeling tool that shows integrators exactly how much more they earn with BluBØX.


Intro Page — Why This Matters

Security integrators increasingly face margin pressure:
• Rising labor costs
• Unpredictable product availability
• Higher customer expectations
• Multi-vendor integration failures
• Callback labor reducing profit by 18–22%
• Shrinking hardware margins industry-wide

BluBØX uniquely reverses this trend.

The Integrator Profit Calculator quantifies the financial impact of:
• Eliminating on-prem servers
• Using a unified platform (access, video, visitor, elevator, AI)
• Reducing installation complexity
• Reducing support and callbacks
• Increasing RMR (AI analytics, logbooks, DDE, mobile credentials)
• Faster deployments
• Higher win rates in competitive bids

This tool gives integrators hard numbers — not marketing talk.


What the Calculator Measures

Project Profitability

• Hardware margin
• Labor hours saved
• Design/engineering hours saved
• Server elimination savings
• Reduced troubleshooting time
• Faster deployment cycles
• Lower T&E (truck rolls, overnight support)
• Fewer integration points = fewer issues

BluBØX Impact:
Unified platform = 30–50% fewer hours per project.


Support & Service Profitability

• Callback labor savings
• BluEYES/SceneIT/AI diagnostics automation
• Less multi-vendor finger-pointing
• Remote troubleshooting vs on-site visits
• Health monitoring reduces emergency calls

BluBØX Impact:
AI + cloud = 70–90% reduction in post-install service labor.


Recurring Monthly Revenue (RMR)

Core RMR
• Cloud access control
• Cloud video
• Visitor management
• Vendor management
• Mobile credentials

AI RMR
• SceneIT summaries
• Logbooks
• RaceTrack analytics
• AutoLabel / AutoID intelligence
• Building Oracle reasoning
• Automated video summaries

Elevator RMR
• Destination dispatch integration
• Traffic analytics
• VIP routing
• Mobile dispatching

BluBØX Impact:
Integrators typically gain $3–$15 per door/device per month in new RMR.


Opportunity Win Rate

The calculator measures the financial impact of:
• Offering unified access + video + elevator + AI in one platform
• Faster proposal turnaround
• Stronger differentiation
• More predictable lead times
• Higher close rates on modern/AI-driven projects

BluBØX Impact:
Integrators report 20–40% higher win rates when bidding BluBØX vs legacy systems.
