High level plans and challenges regarding infrastructure delivery in South Africa
PRESIDENTIAL INFRASTRUCTURE COORDINATING COMMISSION
Friday, 14 February 2014
Background
Challenges
• Poverty, inequality and unemplyment
• The New Growth Path sets a goal of 5 million new jobs by 2020; identifies structural problems in the
economy to be overcome and points to opportunities in specific sectors and markets (“jobs drivers”)
• The 1st jobs driver is infrastructure: laying the basis for higher growth, inclusivity and job creation
• However, the pace of infrastructure development and spending on infrastructure is projected to fall
from 9,1% of GDP currently to 8,1% of GDP (2013)
• Blockages include weak implementation capacity in parts of the state (with unspent monies) and poor
project development planning
• Projects are not always strategic, integrated or aligned with national priorities
• Poor co-ordination slows projects and limits their impact
2
Response by Government
• Establish a structure in 2011 to address the challenges through coordination, integration and
accelerated implementation: the Presidential Infrastructure Coordinating Commission (PICC)
• Adopted a single common National Infrastructure Plan in that will be monitored and centrally driven
• Identify who is responsible and hold them to account
• Develop a twenty-year planning framework beyond one administration to avoid stop-start patterns
Moving from poor performance to integrated, multi-programme delivery
• Poor planning at institutional level
• Slow approval of projects
• Late start to projects
• Poor quality of execution
• High costs and monopoly pricing
• Poor industry reaction time
• Poor project controls (schedule, cost, quality, safety, health and environment)
• Tender abuses and corruption• Unrealistic acceleration• Unplanned and costly rework of
designs or construction• No political alignment with no
champion
• Permitting (e.g. EIA) rework or delays
• Lead time delays
• Slow or non-payment of contractors
• Improved programme co-ordination in state supported by project management and engineering skills
• Align the National, Provincial and Local structures
• Long term support for long term projects, especially regional projects
• Predictable process for implementing projects including streamlined regulatory approvals
• Strong policy direction for incentivisation of supplier development, localisation and private sector participation
• Plan and build projects that promotes low life cycle costs
• Standardised designs and delivery
• Full life cycle costs recovered through user tariff and a committed funding strategy
• Strengthening project controls and monitoring in government departments and state owned enterprises
• Standardised and simple automated reporting to track project progress and performance
• Early warning to address bottlenecks

SIP 1: Unlocking the Northern Mineral Belt with Waterberg as the Catalyst
Project location
Unlocking SA’s northern mineral belt in one of the poorest provinces (Limpopo) through key infrastructure provision in the Waterberg and Steelpoort districts, initiating new energy and industrial development, shifting coal from road to rail in Mpumalanga and increasing rail capacity to Richards Bay whilst supporting regional integration
Investment in rail, water pipelines, energy generation and transmission infrastructure will catalyse unlocking of rich mineral resources in Limpopo resulting in up to 98 000 direct jobs across the areas covered. Urban development in the Waterberg will be the first major post apartheid new urban centre and will be a “green” development project.
Mining includes coal , platinum and other minerals for local use and export, hence the rail capacity is being extended to Mpumalanga power stations and for export principally via Richards Bay and in future Maputo (via Swaziland link).
The additional rail capacity will shift coal from road to rail in Mpumalanga with positive environmental and social benefits. Supportive logistics corridors will help to strengthen Mpumalanga’s economic development.
