Que signifie cross-section dans ce contexte ? Ce terme est beaucoup utilisé dans les domaines techniques...c'est pourquoi je n'ai aucun proposition de départ à vous faire dans ce contexte.

Selected
échantillon
When 'cross-section' means a selection, 'échantillon' is one term that I've come across in this sort of context.

Emie, to answer your question below, I'd say "not quite" — it's seems to me (subject to your wider conbtext, of coirse) that the source text is actually saying « coût unitaire d'un échantillon des services gouvernementaux » (also consider if 'gouvernement' is right here, I can't help wondering if this isn't 'état' in fact?)

Note from asker:
| Ok, so It would be "coût unitaire de l'échantillon des services gouvernementaux" |

: Pas ici, je pense : ça, c'est dans le sens de 'representative cross-section', ce qui n'est pas le cas ici.
