  35. OVERALL PERFORMANCE

  36. Standard Reporting Format and Rating System "Building a Caring Society. Together" • For the quarterly report, and for ease of analysis an additional colour coded column, (green, amber and red), is used to determine progress towards meeting pre-determined targets and objectives. On course– no major action needed. Moderaterisk that some problems exist and as a result the target will not be achieved in the planned time frames- remedial action is needed to avoid this. Certainty that the target will not be achieved or was not achieved in the planned timeframes- major remedial action and urgent intervention is required 36

  43. CHALLENGES

  44. CHALLENGES The implementation of the Department’s programmes is affected by a number of challenges. Limited capacity due to the termination of service by many senior managers during the reporting period. The Inspectorate for social security is not yet fully fledged or operational. As such the lack of capacity has affected it work during the period under review. The Department works with other institutions both governmental and non-governmental in implementing some of its projects, as such delays created by other institutions have an impact on the rate at which the Department delivers on its mandate. -Projects affected by this include the delayed approval of comprehensive social security reforms. Reporting lines with provinces need to improve in order to address challenges such as lack of timely reporting by some provinces. "Building a Caring Society. Together" 44

  45. INTERVENTIONS

  46. INTERVENTION /CORRECTION/ WAY FORWARD Regular Programme performance reviews are held to identify areas that need interventions for better and effective performance. As such performance review sessions have been held. The following actions were agreed to as part of improving performance. Programmes will prioritise projects: Spending and Procurement plans of the Programme Managers are analyzed regularly to assess progress on the implementation of key projects Programme Managers committed to fast-track projects that are partially achieved. Bid Adjudication and Bid Evaluation committees meet frequently to fast track procurement approval processes and for follow-ups on all identified key projects The Department is working on developing a standard approach to processes such as writing of Terms Of Reference, etc. and offer capacity building on those to avoid delays in approval of such processes The Department has improved working relations with provinces, through amongst others, Joint Sector Planning Sessions and HSD meetings "Building a Caring Society.
