The Cost Recovery Framework

The Cost Recovery Framework is a method used by organizations or governments to ensure they recoup the expenses involved in providing a service or project. It involves calculating the total costs—such as labor, materials, and overhead—and then determining fees or funding sources that cover these costs without profit. This approach aims to make services sustainable and fair, ensuring that the costs are fairly distributed among users or stakeholders. Ultimately, it helps organizations manage resources responsibly while maintaining essential services or projects.
