Is TracePack worth running as a client service?

The evidence supports TracePack as a technically viable, open-source evidence management layer for agencies with developer resources, but only if the client accepts TracePack branding and a managed implementation. Client price, labor cost, usage, overhead, and expected volume are not supplied, so ROI and margin cannot be modeled.
