‘Liable’ to is used to denote negative predictions or undesirable outcomes; ‘likely’ is used for happy or positive forecasts. Since the whole sentence means to point to out that the program is cost effective, a positive feature, we must use ‘likely’ rather than ‘liable’. Remove A, B and D. Between C and E, C brings out the intended meaning neatly

Generally speaking, ‘proved’ and ‘proven’ are the same when used as past participles, except that we can use ‘proved’ as a past tense verb, while not 'proven'. However, ‘proven’ is more acceptable than ‘proved’ as an adjective before a noun such as ‘proven capacity’ or ‘proven MS skills’ etc. For use as a verb, such as in him ‘has proved’, ‘proved’ is more often the preferred form.
