  26. MANUFACTURING INVESTMENT CLUSTER STRATEGIC INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS SIP STUDY PURPOSE OF THE STUDY - conducted in 2004 • The key strategic question that this evaluation sought to address was “ Is the programme attracting the right projects?”. • For the purpose of this study, right projects were defined by reviewing what constitutes a strategic project in the context of investment promotion and what are the objectives of the programme. • Consequently the right projects were viewed to be projects that upgrade local industries, enable the higher value manufacturing and generally improve the overall cluster competitiveness.

  27. MANUFACTURING INVESTMENT CLUSTER STRATEGIC INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS KEY FINDINGS • There is a strong indication, that the level of awareness of the SIP programme and its complementary incentives is low amongst industrialists. • The awarding of the SIP allowance has played a decisive part in the investment decision for only a third of the respondents with approved projects. • The majority of the SIP-approved projects are forecasted to have positive impacts on their clusters. However, the level of direct job creation from the projects is forecasted to be low. • SIP is predominately attracting applications from existing companies who are expanding their South African operations. • The extra tax revenue enabled by the SIP incentive will more than pay for the cost of the incentive. • There is a paucity of applicants with focused labour intensive projects as well as a paucity of applications from foreign direct investors. • The key issue with regards to the administrative process is the time taken to process applications. LESSONS • Generally, South Africa is struggling to attract the mega-million Rand investments which are also labour-intensive, due to its inferior competitive advantages compared to other regions. • The present criteria and design of SIP have resulted in the Adjudication Committee approving projects which pass the criteria, but which are not necessarily aligned to the specific development of sector objectives. • The key weakness with the SIP administration processes is the long processing time for applications. Secondly the process followed to assess applications from foreign applicants needs to be streamlined SIP STUDY

  28. MANUFACTURING INVESTMENT CLUSTERINVESTMENT AND TRAINING ALLOWANCE (12i) AIM • To promote industrial upgrading and new investments in manufacturing Objectives • Improved energy efficiency with emphasis on cleaner production technology • Innovative: focus on projects that will utilize processes of innovation, thereby changing pre-existing techniques and the use of plant, machinery or equipment and these processes will materially improve production time, reduce production costs, improve product quality or improve product longevity. • General business linkages: acquiring goods and services from small, medium or micro enterprises • Location in industrial development zone • Direct employment creation and Skills development Performance • Projects recommended by the Adjudication committee as of 31 march 2011: 4 • Total investment: R4.1 billion • Investment allowance: R1.3 billion • Training allowance: R13.3 million • Direct Jobs: 370

  32. SERVICES INVESTMENT CLUSTER BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING & OFFSHORING: PERFORMANCE BPO &O STUDY • A review and benchmarking of the government assistance and support (GAS) that is currently offered by the BPO sector was conducted in 2010. • The objective was to analyse performance of and benchmark SA incentives, and make future recommendations • SA’s current incentives were compared with established offshore locations’ (India and Philippines) and Tier 2 competitors (Egypt, Malaysia and Kenya) • A key finding was that countries attempt to address most elements of the BPO cost structure in their incentives and most provide significant incentives that address operational expenditure (opex) in addition to capital expenditure (capex). • The benchmarking also shows that the total value of incentive per Full Time Job Equivalent (FTE) provided by South Africa is comparable to established destinations but lesser than that of emerging destinations. • SA’s incentives should include opex and offered for new offshore jobs, in order ensure competitiveness and achieve maximum impact. • The dti should continue to market SA’s value proposition globally for foreign direct investments through missions. • Following the study, the dti launched a revised BPS incentive programme effective 1 January 2011. • the dti developed a targeted Value Proposition targeted to economic distress areas.

Critical Infrastructure Programme support The CIP contribution amounts to R50,2 million towards the following infrastructure items: • Bulk electrical infrastructure • Rail connection to the main Railway line • Access roads The project has estimated R4, 3 billion worth of investment and will consist of: • An ore preparation facility and sinter plant which will beneficiate the ore into 2.4 million tons per annum of a high grade sinter. • A smelter located in Coega that will produce 320 000 tons per annum of high carbon ferromanganese. • The smelter will consume some 700 000 tons per annum of the sinter leaving 1.7 million tons for export. • The project has already invested R6,1 billion in underground mine in the Northern Cape and further R4,2 billion will be invested towards the smelter at Coega in the Eastern Cape • Kalagadi Manganese project estimated to create 877 direct permanent job opportunities . • To date 56 direct permanent jobs were created

  48. INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT CLUSTER CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAMME Impact study of CIP IMPACT OF CIP TO THE ECONOMY (study done in 2009) • CIP is one of the most effective grant scheme in SA in terms of value for money. The long term value added to the wider economy for every R1 allocated to the scheme is considerable. • On average R67 worth of new capital investments is leveraged in the economy for every R1 CIP grant allocated to the project. • Compared with Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) between 2005/06 to 2007/08, total MIG allocations totaled R5.4 bn and CIP R700m, but CIP has been able to leverage more than 50% of the total MIG funding allocated by National Treasury. • Compared with Agriculture, Transport and Government Services, CIP performs best in terms of output, leveraging investments to the economy and job creation.

  49. INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT CLUSTER CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAMME Impact study of CIP IMPACT OF CIP TO THE ECONOMY • 36 investments supported by CIP led to 3% increase in investments in the economy – translating into 1.14% increase in GDP and 2.8% increase in exports (2000 prices). • From inception to 2009, CIP created 23915 direct jobs abd 64615 construction job opportunities – leading to a 0.3% reduction in national unemployment rate. • CIP has benefited households, mainly in urban areas where CIP investment projects are located. CHALLENGES Subdued economic growth that has negative effect on investment demand SOLUTIONS Revised guidelines for CIP that will lead to accommodation of other sectors of the economy Improved marketing of the scheme to attract more applications

  50. Background INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT CLUSTER INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT ZONES (IDZs) • The South African government approved the Industrial Development Zones (IDZ) Programme in 2000. • The main aim of the programme was to improve South African competitiveness through attraction of foreign direct investments and export of value added commodities. This would in turn create jobs and promote linkages between zone and non-zone enterprises. • An Industrial Development Zone (IDZ) can be defined as a purpose-built industrial estate linked to an international port or seaport that leverages both domestic and foreign fixed direct investment in value-added and export-oriented manufacturing industries and services.
