Costs of preparing for improved productivity and performance: McKinsey (2004) also estimated the costs of a package to improve performance which included 1) resources to increase availability of medical supplies, 2) team performance incentives amounting to some 20% increase in salaries, 3) strengthening of continuous education, including upgrading of all Zonal Training Centres. The total costs of this package were estimated to ~27 billion Tsh for recurrent expenditures and ~75 billion Tsh for one-time capital expenditures.
