  2. Presentation Outline • Tshumisano’s Strategic Intent & Moral Purpose • Envisaged Outcomes for Business Plan FY 2008/9 • Programme Review for FY 2007/8 • Technology Stations and their scope • Performance Review FY 2006/7 – FY 2007/8 • SWOT Analysis • Business Plan for FY 2008/9 • Strategic Imperatives FY 2008/9 • Income and Budget Forecast : FY 2008/9 – 2010/11

  3. Strategic Intent: To be within reach of every SME in the country through its Technology Transfer and related activities at Universities.

  4. Moral Purpose To do what is right: The efficient and effective usage and deployment of public funds. To do what is worthwhile: Providing world class technology solutions and training to SME’s to enhance economic growth in South Africa.

  5. Envisaged Outcomes for Business Plan • Increase the number and quality of SME’s assisted through referrals and linkages with other Agencies and Government Programmes. • Enhanced alignment with DST’s ten year Innovation Plan. • Enhanced Human Resource Development with specific emphasis on Internship Programme and Student involvement • Continuous Improvement to mitigate Structural Inefficiencies within the Trust.

  6. Why SME’s?? • SME’s generally have higher growth tendencies (sales, turnover, jobs) than larger firms • SME’s accounts for a disproportion number of gross jobs created • Benefit of Economics of Scope rather than Economics of Scale – nimble and shielded from Exogenous shocks • Tends to be more Innovation intensive than large firms Ref. Schreyer, P. 2000. High Growth Firms and Employment, OECD Science, Technology and Industry, Working Papers, 2000/3

  7. Technology Stations Programme PROGRAMME REVIEW for FY 2007/8

  8. Technology Stations and Their Scope

  9. Agro Processing and Chemical Cluster • To Support the Chemicals and the Agro-Processing Industry. • Formulations, Pharmaceutical and the Natural/Indigenous Products, Detergent & Paint . • Testing and analysis in manufacturing low-end products.

  10. Primary Manufacturing Cluster • The secondary manufacturing cluster focuses on advanced manufacturing and value adding services within three critical industrialized sectors • Specialises focus is in product development and prototyping • Application of Smart materials, textiles and reverse engineering

  11. Secondary Manufacturing Cluster • This is a support cluster , with service of system automation and processing of materials. • Material compositions and casting (foundry) solutions.

  12. Performance Review FY 2006/7 -FY 2007/8

  13. Type of Technology support from TSP First six months of FY2007/08

  14. 20% compound increase of Technology Stations clientele = aprox. 1300 Technology base SME
