• Effective monitoring of the provision of infrastructure Professional ServiceProviders (PSP’s) and Implementing Agents (IA’s) that the Department ofBasic Education and provinces are utilizing for the implementation of theinfrastructure programme.
• Monitoring addresses planning, budgeting, expenditure, procurement andproject management. These are interrogated and a sample of projects arevisited. Based on the findings from these visits, remedial actions aredevised with the province and monitored by the DBE.
• Monitoring deals with both programme and project matters;• Programme matters include:- The pattern of overall expenditure being achieved;- Comparisons of expenditure to projected cash flows;- Progress being made with key groups of projects [eg. Water, sanitation,
libraries, laboratories, Grade R]- Management of the portfolio of projects [ie evidence that the programme
of projects is being managed effectively through the project cycle];
MONITORING
43
• At the Project level the focus is on ensuring:
- that PSP appointments are being made;
- that planning and design processes are progressing;
- that the tender process for the appointment of contractors is progressing, that
construction is progressing satisfactorily, [i.e. on programme, on budget, at
acceptable quality…]; and
- that projects are being handed over and closed out and that final accounts are
being wrapped up.

CHALLENGES & REMEDIAL ACTIONS
45
CHALLENGE NATURE OF CHALLENGE
REMEDIAL ACTION
1.
• Declining/ no allocation of the Equitable Share toward Infrastructure Delivery poses pressure on the Education Infrastructure Grant.
• Delay payment to contractors resulting in sites been abandon.
Budget/ Finance • PEDs are to allocate Equitable Share.• Delay projects on pre-construction stage to
commence to construction, whilst awaiting for adjustments.
• Monitor the submission of the invoices of the work done by the IA to ensure that work on ground is equivalent to the expenditure.
• PEDs and the IA to reconcile figures on monthly bases.
2.
• Lack of Programme Management System with reliable data information to enhance the planning and delivery of the required Infrastructure timeously
IT • Deployment and the implementation of a transversal system (EFMS) by all the PEDs to manage the data.
• PEDs to increase the IT capacity to house the system.
3.
• Excessive number of schools requiring maintenance
Planning • Re-alignment and reprioritisation of all the projects earmarked for maintenance to comply with the DoRA condition of the 30% allocation towards the programme.
• PEDs to ensure that projects are assessed to avoid duplications or over emphasis on the same schools.
4.
• Non- compliance with SCM processes resulting in irregular expenditure by the Implementing Agent
Procurement • PEDs to conduct quarterly audits to ensure compliance on all the process.
CHALLENGES & REMEDIAL ACTION (….CONTINUE)
46
CHALLENGE NATURE OF CHALLENGE
REMEDIAL ACTION
5.
• Late appointment of service providers(contractors) by the Implementing Agentfor projects that were already planned anddesigned in previous financial years.
• IA’s lack of capacity resulting in extensionof times, variations orders and delayedoccupation of the asset,
• Inaccurate reporting and poor project andprogramme management.
• Contractors lack of capacity resulting inpoor quality of infrastructure.
• The IAs not meeting the milestone andexpenditure targets as per IPIPs
• The contractual obligations not carried outas per the signed SLA with theimplementing agents
Programme/ Project Management
• Approval of projects for implementation by the PED’s prior to the commencement of implementation.
• The internal capacity through works inspectorsclosely monitors the projects under implementation.
• Monthly progress meeting with IA’s to improve on reporting and to mitigate any challenges.
• Stricter enforcement of timeframes as proposed by FIPDM schedule and the projects reassigned to IA’s that have the capacity to delivery.
• Amendment of the SLA’s to ensure that all engagements are regulated in order to be able to enforce of penalties on non-performing.
• Withdrawing and re-allocation of projects to other performing Implementing Agents.
• Project disruptions by Business Forumsand Local Communities
• Volatility of the construction industry leading to many companies going under and others filing for Business Rescue
Programme/ Project Management
• Continuous engagement with Local Community and Political Leadership to address the identified challenges.
• Effective and close project monitoring and forecasting of trends
BACKGROUND• The audit revealed that 3898 (desktop study) schools
still have inappropriate sanitation facilities.
• An allocation of R2.8 billion has been allocated for the SAFE Initiative over the MTEF as follows:
– 2019/20 : R700 000 000.00
– 2010/21 : R800 000 000.00
– 2021/22 : R1 300 000 000.00
• The SAFE Initiative will be implemented through:
– Provincial EIG allocation
– Partnerships/Donations
– SAFE Initiative Allocation

PLANNING, DELIVERY AND MAINTANANCE
▪ Integrated National School Infrastructure Sector Plan: All schools in the country profiled in
terms of their infrastructure needs in line with Norms and Standards;
▪ Revise Education Infrastructure Delivery Model: This delivery model will address:
▪ Expediting delivery of infrastructure projects,
▪ Controlling the cost of providing education infrastructure and;
▪ Improve Contracts Management Processes;
• Standard Floor Layout Plans and Technical Specifications : Develop standardised plans
and specifications for all Education Facilities (Primary Schools, Secondary Schools, Learner
Boarding Facilities, District and Circuit Offices);
• Establishment of an Education Infrastructure Planning & Management Agency / Bureau:
Infra Bureau/Agency to be set up at national level to centrally facilitate and co-ordinate all the
macro and micro planning processes, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of all
infrastructure projects in the Basic Education Sector.
PLANS TO IMPROVE INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING AND DELIVERY
65
• Revise project prioritization model to use condition
assessment as a determinant for Project Priority List.
• Utilization of data from STATS SA , like population trends
at a local level, to ensure that size of schools built
addresses the current and future population dynamics;
• Review of SLA’s/MOA’s with IA’s to impose penalties for
non-compliance with progress delivery, deduct management
fees for non compliance or withdraw projects as a result of
poor performance.
• Strengthen Contract Management and Monitoring
processes on infrastructure delivery.
PLANNING, DELIVERY AND MAINTANANCE
66
• Strengthen internal Technical Capacity to implement projects, ensuring:
- Qualified and Professionally Registered key personnel;
- Accredited Project Managers;
• Employee retention strategies for attracting and retention of built
environment professionals:
– Revise remuneration scales for professionals;
– Improve working conditions and provision of tools of trade;
• Increase the use of alternative building technologies for quicker
construction;
• Benchmark with other role players like independent schools to reduce
the cost of building schools;
PLANNING, DELIVERY AND MAINTANANCE
67
FUNDING AND PARTNERSHIPS• Provinces to ensure that sufficient funding is allocated to the Equitable Share
and ring fence such funding for infrastructure;
• Condition Grant allocations (EIG) to be ring-fenced and used solely for the
intended purpose, as a condition of the grant;
• EIG Funding allocations to be per project on the basis of an approved Business
Case and progress on projects implemented;
• Diversified funding modalities for school infrastructure:
• Public-Private Partnerships (Build, Operate & Transfer – BOT);
• Donor and Grant funding;
• Rand-for-Rand Public-Private Partnerships;
• Partnerships with Institutions of Higher Learning and Non-governmental Organizations.
