TITLE: ICASS

ACTIVITIES: ICASS charges associated with management and staffing total an estimated $611,598. These

charges were estimated using the anticipated total of six US Direct Hire (USDH) staff and 36 locally

engaged staff.

There are two other actions that could potentially affect the total ICASS charges in FY2008. In August,

2007, there was a consolidation of motorpool operations with the US Embassy and CDC and there may be

some cost savings realized as a result of this consolidation. Secondly, CDC will be setting up OpenNet on

site during 2008; this action is needed to work more efficiently with the US Embassy on management and

administrative processes. This action may result in some increase in ICASS charges. Therefore, the final

ICASS charges may be affected by these two actions.
