Lifting with cranes?  Save BIG on wind delay costs with the Vita Load Navigator

 

Wind delays drain your project budget and stall progress. In just six months, one of our clients lost 89 hours of lifting time due to wind restrictions on their tower crane — costing them nearly $280,000.

Introducing the Vita Load Navigator:

  • Doubles maximum working wind speed threshold - Depending on load size and other variables**

  • Enables safer, faster lifts with remote load control from up to 182 metres away - keeping workers safe

  • Helps you save significant costs by reducing downtime so you're not paying for idle resources


Here’s what the numbers say:

  • Lost time: 89 hours

  • Estimated cost impact: $279,648

  • VLN Hire cost for same period: from $500 per day

  • Net savings: $195,500


Calculating Return on Investment - VLN

Assess ROI via value-based, risk-adjusted lens—beyond simple revenue-minus-cost.

  • Efficiency Gains: 30% faster/cheaper projects. Annual savings: (current project costs/time) × 30%.

  • Downtime Reduction: Operate in high winds; cut weather delays. Savings: (lost days/year) × (daily cost).

  • Safety Enhancements: 63% fewer injuries. Savings: (annual claims) × 63% + reduced downtime/insurance.

  • Contract Wins: Innovative edge could win extra X tenders / year.
