Cost Considerations Costs depend on facilities rental, basic utilities and staff. As staff costs are covered by the UN Network Service, the monthly recurring cost of this service is USD 3075, to be apportioned to agencies depending on the number of essential staff each agency has as defined in the Emergency Security Plan. Sourcing Alternatives This service can be provided by a commercial facility (e.g. hotel. However, even if such facilities are immediately available, they will not have the required UN infrastructure and connectivity. For comparison, the most economical option for such a commercial service in Maputo was USD 20,000 per month.
