Role Overview
The Agency operates under a cost recovery model to ensure financial sustainability and transparency in service delivery. The current FY 25-26 cost model requires review and refinement to incorporate expected costings and support the development of the FY 26-27 cost model. This includes integrating newly introduced Tier 2 pricing for Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR) services. A bottom-up template for the FY 26-27 cost model has been developed; however, additional cost inclusions and validation are required to ensure accuracy and alignment with full cost recovery principles.
