The evaluation aims to assess the cost-effectiveness of process-control systems in South Africa's urban infrastructure projects.
Applied panel data estimation to analyze cost-effectiveness over multiple regions and time periods
Monitored various infrastructure projects to compare costs between implemented and non-implemented systems
Modelled maintenance outcomes using a specified regression equation
85% of monitored projects experienced cost decreases when utilizing process-control systems
Average total expenditure reduction estimated at $10 million annually
Demonstrated significant cost-saving potential, advocating for broader implementation
