The purpose of the study was to determine the contribution of on-spot billing system, cost of water and revenue collection mechanism on revenue collection performance of public entities in Uganda. The study objectives were to establish the contribution of cost of water on the revenue collection performance in NWSC, to examine the contribution of revenue collection mechanism on revenue collection performance in NWSC, and to find out the relationship between on-spot billing system and revenue collection performance in NWSC. The study was guided by the cash management theory which focuses improving liquidity and it adopted a cross sectional research design. Data was collected using a questionnaire and an interview guide. 108 respondents participated in the study. Data was entered into SPSS, and analysed using descriptive statistics. Findings show that the cost of water significantly contributes to revenue collection performance in NWSC, Mbarara Centre.
