The four cost-saving defaults sum to the Ibeks target band: 0.5% of delivered cost (conservative) to 2% (top of target). The band draws on Australian benchmarks: transport-infrastructure overruns of A$34b / 21% over promised cost (Grattan Institute, 2020); rework ~6.4% of contract value, direct cost alone (Love & Edwards, Curtin University); ~5–6% builder net margins (Master Builders Australia 2023; ABS / IBISWorld). The time-saved and retention defaults are working assumptions. Dial everything to your own experience.

Where the value comes from

Bars show the top of each range. The four cost-saving drivers sum to the 0.5–2% target band; commercial time saved is shown for context and sits outside the band.

Illustrative. Figures are an estimate from the assumptions above, not a guarantee. Realised savings depend on adoption and acting early on what Ibeks shows. We don't change your contract value; we protect the margin inside it.
