They trust us today to support them in updating and evolution of this decision support tool. \u200b Shared between the different actors (operators, regulators, line ministries, donors), these models have the objective to constitute a full part decision support and negotiation tools allowing strategic arbitrations in terms of coverage of the service, investment, financing and pricing. \u200b In Togo, a technico-financial model of the urban water service had been developed in 2016 during the implementation of the tariff study carried out by Val\u00e9rie Audibert. In Benin, the model has been in place within SONEB for more than 10 years, and redeveloped during the project manager assistance of the Cotonou DWS project - Phase 2. \u200b Each time, it is a complete financial simulation model, projecting by 2030, the term of the Sustainable Development Goals, the water demand of all the centers of the current and future perimeter, the investment program to meet this demand and the financial statements of the companies in charge of operating and managing the infrastructure. It enables the calculation of the average price ensuring the financial balance of the companies. \u200b Ph\u0153nix is delivering a training and support series for a team of agents in the water sector using a technico-financial model. In Togo, with funding from AFD, 9 agents from the TdE - the farmer -, from SP EAU - the assets company - and from ARSE - the regulatory authority of the sector - follow training for three consecutive years. In Benin, with SONEB's own funding, the sessions are geared towards an annual update of the model, with an increasingly complete control of the tool by the agents. \u200b These training must allow the agents to understand, master and update the model, with updating exercises in real situation."}
