Budgeting For Your Project

Budgeting is one of the most important considerations for any mobile project. Building a holistic picture of all the related costs associated with a mobile project takes time. Please feel free to Contact Us | Dimagi with any questions on the TCO Model or your proposed project.
Total Cost of Ownership Model
To help organizations estimate the total cost of adopting CommCare (or other mobile technologies) for frontline programs, we have developed an easy-to-use budgeting tool called the Total Cost of Ownership Model.
The TCO Model serves as a simple, transparent exercise for organizations interested in understanding the cost of maintaining a mobile solution. The tool provides a model to budget the adoption and deployment of CommCare over five years, and is based on 10+ years of experience helping hundreds of partners determine their budgets.
The TCO Model helps organizations:
Estimate the total cost of adopting CommCare or other mobile technologies
Explore permutations and plan budgets accordingly
Help groups understand and/or identify the real cost drivers to maintaining a mobile system
Assess how these costs can be shared by governments, external donors, NGOs, or others
