34. Pros/ cons of model PROSCONS Provides proof of revenue to justify service Requires accurate cost modeling, resulting in ability to estimate projects to high degree of accuracy Reduces scope-creep Sets expectations for annual production goals Quantify additional staff in terms of cost-recovery Risk of alienating core users (faculty, curators) who expect free services from institution Does not support full range of preservation activities (difficult to pass on maintenance costs to user) Requires.5 FTE to oversee business modeling and budget balancing Can leave staff vulnerable to shifting economies
