contents <p>In Rwanda, process-control systems have been implemented in various sectors to enhance efficiency and effectiveness. However, their cost-effectiveness remains a subject of debate. A difference-in-differences model was employed, comparing pre- and post-intervention data from control and treatment groups in Rwanda. Data on costs and outcomes were collected through surveys and administrative records. The DID analysis revealed a significant reduction in operational costs by approximately 15% for the treated sector compared to the control group, with a confidence interval of (8%, 24%). This study provides robust evidence on the cost-effectiveness of process-control systems in Rwanda and offers a methodological framework that can be replicated. Further research should explore the long-term impacts and scalability of these systems across different sectors.
