Part 1: Approach for developing strategic and annual performance plans
Statutory compliance • National Treasury regulations: Chapter 5 (Department) & Chapter 30 (Entities) • Prepare a strategic plan with a five year planning horizon • Table annual performance plans with a three year horizon consistent with the Medium Term Expenditure Framework • Public Service regulations: Part 3 B Based on the strategic plan of the department, an executing authority shall determine the department’s organisational structure in terms of its core and support functions; grade proposed new jobs according to the job evaluation system; define the posts necessary to perform the relevant functions
Statutory compliance • Presidency Policy framework for the Government-wide Monitoring & Evaluation System The accounting officer of a department or municipality, or the chief executive officer of a public entity, is required to establish a monitoring and evaluation system for the institution. Primary users of the M & E system will use these source systems to refine their planning and implementation processes. In the case of the Department the Balanced Score Card was selected as the model to use. • National Treasury Framework for Strategic Plans and Annual Performance Plan Alignment to the government outcomes oriented monitoring and evaluation approach (i.e. Programme of Action, Delivery Agreements ) and Strategic and Annual Performance Plans
Government Wide Monitoring & Evaluation Framework (GWM&E) Manage towards achieving these results (e.g. Economic growth) Equity What we aim to change? Indicators (e.g. Access to water) Indicators What we wish to achieve? Effectiveness (e.g. Dam) Indicators Plan, budget, implement and monitor What we produce or deliver? Efficiency (e.g. Processes or actions) Indicators What we do? Economy (e.g. Human and financial resources) Indicators What we need to do the work?
Gaps from the 2012/13 using the Balanced Score Card Universal access to basic water Water supply & demand Equity in water allocation Reduce licensing backlog FM to address audit Revenue generation Funding for infrastructure backlog Protect resources LG support Shared water courses Institutional realignment Reduce “water crimes” Performance management & leadership Information systems Skills pool

Rationale for infrastructure projects Operate & maintain 25% 25% 25% 25% Percentage per phase of multiyear projects
Rationale for infrastructure projects • Infrastructure projects are conducted in a highly regulated framework in accordance with statutory requirements – example NWA, WSA, NEMA, PFMA as well as the prescripts provided by National Treasury, Auditor-General and National Planning Department. • Projects are often dependent on multi-year, inter-disciplinary, intra-and-inter-departmental factors. • Budgets may originate solely from the fiscus or be a combination of public and private funds. Often the budgets fall into the defined mega-projects categories, which require specific reporting formats. • Projects involve intricate stakeholder engagements. • Testing of infrastructure models at a designated laboratory can take significant amounts of time. • The targets and indicators are developed in terms of industry best practice and project management principles.
Rationale for infrastructure projects ProjectsRisks • Construction or builders holidays / breaks • Inclement weather causing delays • Acquisition of land • Labour interventions • Skills availability • Stakeholder or Interested and Affected Party (I&AP) engagements • Environmental Authorisations • Intra-and- inter-departmental co-operation • Contractual arrangements • Availability of resources, equipment, materials (example of unavailability of pipes in South Africa causing huge delays)
