Source Robinette This might be a starting point for the costing. So one person takes an hour to cycle through the stations, but we have 3 stations going simultaneously. We anticipate best case scenario of 15 people per day, worst case of 10 people per day, thus a costing could be estimated on 12 people per day. Data collection: Demographic station: paperwork involves, meet and greet, signing forms, filling in questionnaires etc. One person in the room could handle this on the day.

This resource might be sought as a partner contribution, but in the meantime could be costed at a fixed price per unit a call centre rate of say $1.50 per phone call. – Potential cost savings/efficiencies should be explored such as the possibility of an on-line booking system and an on-line demographic survey to maximise This might allow the proportion of time allowed for face-to-face paperwork to be substituted for additional measuring time. Data processing and quality control of the 3-D scans should be costed separately and would depend on the type of scanner, software used and the number of scans collected. Data processing for CAESAR took approximately 15 minutes per scan and there were 3 scans per person measured.
