Reducing Turnover with Workplace Violence Protection

Workplace violence is not just a safety issue—it’s a financial one. High turnover driven by unsafe conditions creates a constant drain on resources, from recruitment to training. For CFOs, this means significant ongoing costs. Pinpoint solves the problem by giving nurses peace of mind, leading to lower turnover and reducing recruitment and training expenses.

The ROI is clear: improved safety and morale boost retention, enhance productivity, and ultimately strengthen the bottom line. By solving the workplace violence issue, CFOs can unlock substantial cost savings and drive long-term financial stability. 

Avoiding Lawsuits and High Insurance

By allowing staff to call for help before a situation escalates, Pinpoint reduces the likelihood of full-blown attacks, which directly lowers the number of incidents, the potential for lawsuits, and associated legal costs. The system’s detailed records, logged through the Pinpoint Management Portal, create a robust trail of documentation that protects the organization in legal disputes and ensures compliance with industry regulations. Additionally, the solution’s ability to decrease insurance premiums and streamline operational efficiency offers clear financial advantages, making it an attractive option for risk management.

Low Total Cost of Ownership

Pinpoint offers exceptional value with a low Total Cost of Ownership. Once purchased, the system is fully owned, meaning there are no ongoing per-device fees, subscription costs, or hidden charges—just a one-time investment. This eliminates the financial strain of recurring costs, which can quickly add up over time. By reducing both direct and indirect costs, Pinpoint ensures a lower TCO, ultimately providing long-term savings and a higher return on investment.

No Hidden Maintenace Costs

Maintenance with Pinpoint is designed to be both simple and cost-effective. The system uses eco-friendly batteries that last 5–7 years, significantly reducing the need for frequent replacements. Since the batteries are only activated when pressed, they’re used efficiently, maximizing their lifespan and minimizing waste. Additionally, there’s no need for ongoing IT support or infrastructure, eliminating the hidden costs associated with staff time.

Frequently Asked Questions by CFOs

What is the total cost of ownership (TCO) for Pinpoint?

Pinpoint is designed for long-term financial efficiency. Once you purchase the hardware, you own it—no device rental fees, no per-user licensing, and no hidden infrastructure charges. The TCO is low and predictable, especially compared to systems with monthly device or maintenance contracts.

Are there ongoing subscription or licensing costs?

Yes, but they’re minimal and clearly defined. Our only recurring fees are the Pinpoint Management Portal for logging incidents, access to the Pinpoint Management Portal, Mobile Alert, and PC Alert functionality.

Do we need to hire someone to maintain the system?

No. Pinpoint is virtually maintenance-free. The system is built for simplicity and durability, making it easy for your existing facilities or IT teams to support as part of standard operations.

What about battery life and replacement costs?

Our devices use a simple button battery that lasts 8–10 years. When replacement is eventually needed, it’s quick, inexpensive, and doesn’t require proprietary tools or support. No battery contracts, no wasteful battery turnover cycles.

How do we handle hardware disposal—any e-waste concerns?

None. Our devices don’t require special handling or recycling services. They’re free of hazardous components and can be safely disposed of in standard waste streams, reducing compliance costs and your environmental impact.

Will this scale efficiently across multiple sites?

Yes. Pinpoint is built to scale across facilities without duplicating costs or infrastructure. Hardware is purchased once and can be reused or redeployed. Software licensing scales simply, with no per-device penalties, making expansion cost-efficient and predictable.

How does Pinpoint compare to traditional RTLS or duress systems in terms of cost?
RTLS and legacy duress systems often involve high upfront costs and expensive ongoing fees for tracking infrastructure, software updates, and device leasing. Pinpoint avoids these. You own the hardware outright, our batteries last nearly a decade, and recurring software costs are low and transparent.
