Missed-renewal cost calculator
A contract that renews because nobody gave notice commits you to another term on the old terms. The cost is the share of that spend you could have cut or renegotiated. Enter the yearly value, the renewal term, that share and how many renewals slip past each year to see the loss per missed renewal and per year.

General information, not legal advice. Check the result against your contract and the law that applies to it.
When to use it
Use it to put a figure on renewals that pass unnoticed, for a business case, a budget review or a conversation with management.
How to get a reliable answer
Step 1
Take the figures from the contract
Use the dates, periods and amounts the signed contract states, not a summary or an old spreadsheet.
Step 2
Check the working
Every result shows its steps, its assumptions and the data it used, so you can see where each number comes from.
Step 3
Keep it on the contract
In Pactinel the same calculation runs for every contract you hold and reminds the owner in time.
Frequently asked questions
What share of the spend can usually be saved?
It depends on the market and your negotiating position. Enter your own estimate; even a small share adds up across many contracts.
Why count missed renewals per year?
Because the loss repeats. A few renewals that slip past each year across a portfolio cost far more than a single contract does.
