Most organisations know their testing process is broken. Few have quantified what it is actually costing them across labour, failures, compliance, and AI readiness.

Cost Driver 1
Labour & Manual Testing Overhead
Barclays identified this as a direct replacement for BCS Test Runner. The question is not just salary — it is the hidden cost of scripting, maintenance, and re-running failed cycles.
Include salary, benefits, overhead

Scripting + execution + re-runs

Time keeping old scripts alive vs. actual testing

Cost Driver 2
Production Failures & Release Risk
J&J highlighted packaging automation demand and governance gaps. Every failure that gets through incomplete UAT carries a direct cost — remediation, rollback, user impact, and reputational exposure.
Issues that UAT should have caught
Remediation, rollback, user impact, reputational cost

Planned releases that slipped because testing was not complete
Opportunity cost, SLA risk, competitive impact

Cost Driver 3
Compliance & Audit Evidence Burden
MS Amlin specifically called out audit evidence as a pain point. Without automated audit trails, teams spend weeks manually compiling evidence before every compliance review.
SOC 2, ISO 27001, internal audits, etc.
Manual compilation, screenshots, email chains
IT + compliance + management time

Regulatory fines or remediation costs from audit failures

AI Readiness Gap & Blocked Initiatives
M&T Bank is excited about Copilot integration and internal LLM usage — but non-deterministic AI outputs cannot be validated by manual or script-based UAT. This is the hidden blocker nobody is measuring.

Your fully loaded cost of manual UAT including labour, failures, compliance, and blocked AI value.
Estimated Cost with ATP360
$0
ATP360 eliminates the majority of labour overhead, prevents production failures through better coverage, auto-generates audit evidence, and unblocks AI initiatives.
