1. Estimated Average Price List for Expenditures at the Institution Level |
|
|
The toolkit provides a template for a price list for institution level expenditure items. These prices will automatically enter into the costing analyses in the rest of the toolkit. Since this is a template, you only need fill in prices for items identified in Toolkbox 3 as being required for your ICT Intervention.
Also, the quantities of expenditure items generated in Toolbox 3 are automatically carried into the corresponding costing analyses. Any changes in these quantities will require you return to the appropriate form in Toolbox 3.
Many of the subsequent forms allow you to add items not previously identified and their prices.
The prices you enter into the price list should be averages across institutions.
For preparatory work, you may use the form provided to gather the average prices for your area before you enter them into the web based form.
Any changes to the price list will propogate through the subsequent cost analyses.

2. Cost Analysis at Institution Level |
|
|
Estimating costs for each Program Institution requires two variables.
- Quantities of expenditure items per category generated in the previous planning tools in Toolbox 3 and Toolbox 4.
- Unit costs of these items
Enter these two values into the form below for each institution.
|
|
3. Cost Analysis at Regional Level |
|
|
Costs of ICT Interventions in each geographic area served by the ICT Program are made of two parts.
- Sum of costs of all institutions in the geographic area concerned
- Costs of ICT interventions that are specifically incurred at the geographic area level
The Tool sums automatically the ICT costs in all institutions in the geographic area concerned.
In this Section, you need to estimate the costs of ICT interventions that are specifically incurred at the geographic area level. These costs depend on two variables:
- Quantities of expenditure items per category generated in the previous planning tools in Toolbox 3 and Toolbox 4.
- Unit costs of these items
Enter these two values into the form below for each geographic area.
|
|
4. Cost Analysis at National or Central Level |
|
|
Costs of ICT Interventions at the national level are made of two parts:
- Sum of costs in all the geographic area served by the ICT Program
- Costs of ICT interventions that are specifically incurred at nationwide/central level
The Tool sums automatically the ICT costs in all the geographic area.
In this Section, you need to estimate the costs of ICT interventions that are specifically incurred at the nationwide/central level. These costs depend on two variables:
- Quantities of expenditure items per category generated in the previous planning tools in Toolbox 3 and Toolbox 4.
- Unit costs of these items

5. Summary of ICT Program Costs by Geographical Areas |
|
|
The Tool automatically summarizes the costs of the ICT Program from the previous steps.
|
|
|
6. Summary of ICT Program Costs at National Level |
|
|
The Tool automatically summarizes the costs of the ICT Program from the previous steps.
|
|
|
7. Distribution of Costs Over Time |
|
|
This step involves taking the total costs just generated and spacing them out over the next four years and beyond. |
