Performance Context High level summary - audit performance previous years and current year
Rationale for Turnaround Organizational review and renewal that will ensure compliance with the mandate and satisfactory audits. The Department in conjunction with Technical Assistance Unit (TAU), have developed a 7 Year Plan to rebuild the Department. This requires change of the organizational processes, systems and resource perspectives as well as change to the structure,
Rationale for Turnaround • Organizational culture and proper implementation of a performance management system that affects all areas of the Department • Such change is informed by diagnostics, preceded by a range of system reviews. • Key enablers throughout the three phases of the Turnaround Strategy will include Transformation and Change Management.
Rationale for Turnaround Given the state of the Department the scale of the Turnaround challenge is enormous, which is exacerbated by inadequate capacity within the Department Development of a complete and credible asset register Audit of Leases and Development of a Lease management framework Improved audit outcomes Implementation of the Infrastructure Delivery Management System
What has been achieved The first phase, ending 31 March 2014, comprising 23 key stabilization projects, was conceptualised based on the desktop audit of National Treasury’s Technical Assistance Unit (TAU), audit findings for past four financial years as well as reports from the Special Investigation Unit. Stabilised areas have created the potential for more fundamental change to bring large efficiency gains through better practice and improved policy options.
Cont... The second phase of the Turnaround Strategy, the Efficiency Enhancement Phase, beginning 01 April 2014 is scheduled to be completed by the end of March 2019.
