5 year Strategic Goals & Outcomes Vision - A service oriented Public Works Department delivering value and contributing to the national agenda for social and economic development Strategic Goals and contributions to Government Outcomes
Setting the Scene • The Minister’s Policy Statement identified five strategic priorities for the five year period of this Administration: • The creation of 6 million work opportunities through the EPWP; • Operationalisation of the PMTE (Property Management Trading Entity) to manage the core business of Public Works – custodianship of state immovable assets and provision of accommodation to government; • Operationalisation of the Governance Risk and Compliance Branch – to strengthen the fight against fraud and corruption, as well as to spearhead the Efficiency Enhancement phase of the Turnaround - using the tools of strategic planning, Service Delivery Model processes and risk and performance management. • The Policy Review – working with all stakeholders, particularly the provinces, to develop a new Public Works White Paper culminating in the tabling of a Public Works Act to codify and clarify the mandate of Public Works; • The Transformation of the Built Environment – so that ownership, control and the composition of the professions better reflects the demographics of South Africa • All these priorities are embedded in the Programmes of the DPW and PMTE
Cont.… These priorities set a different thinking around the delivery mechanisms and targets for the Department and PMTE particularly moving from Phase 1 of the Turnaround (Stabilisation) to Phase 2 – Efficiency Enhancement

Please Refer to the Q3 Reports Attached – DPW and PMTE for Detail Discussion
Summary of Performance Information • The performance of the Department and PMTE has slightly improved (Although a slight decline in DPW) • The reasons for a decline are mainly in the challenges in procurement processes • The combined performance (Average) of DPW and PMTE is • Q2 = 46% • Q3 = 52% • Overall the Department is performing slightly above average at 52% in Q3 compared to 46% in Q2 – despite the challenges experienced
Performance Challenges • Appointment of service providers – delays are still experienced in the process to appoint service providers that will provide services in in areas where certain scarce skills are required. This then contributes to delays in achieving the set targets or under-performance • In areas where there are dependencies from external stakeholders or client departments , delays or non corporation is often a challenge resulting in non-achievements of targets. This is largely applicable to Policy and legislation related matters • Capacity and Budget constraints in some areas continue to be a hindrance to performance. An example include the facilities management contracts . This is also exacerbated by the constrained fiscus • Energy & Water Efficiencies and Waste Management - Efforts are being made to reach the set goals across government as part of the Green Building Programme • The Department is continually reviewing its business model and the operationalisation of the IDMS as a delivery model for Infrastructure. This will address fragmentation and duplications. Although this financial year, the Department is starting to experience some degree of coordinated activities
