Abstract
This article reports on the utilization of budget split model in distributing fund to implementing agency at operation level. Budget split module is an experimental and engineering mathematical model developed to bring about fair distribution of funds to all regions. This article reports the comparative analysis of using budget split model versus empirical approach. The objective of this study is to compare the budget allocation based on empirical method against Budget Spilt Module developed into RMMS system. The finding indicates that when the budget split model is used, no region gets surplus budget. The budget is distributed such a way that all regions received reasonable amount. The Model balance the fund so that the amount available is shared based of the needs and justification of the road length. Finally, it is concluded that using Budget split model developed into system for fund distribution at operational level will create balanced economic development between regions.
Keywords: Budget split model; Road fund distribution empirical approach; Fund distribution; Road expenditure.
