3. Introduction
The MMDP subscribes to the following core objective of the NIPF in support of the dti’s vision to promote industrialisation characterised by: (1) broad participation; (2) a labour-absorbing industrialisation path
The sector programme encompasses the following industries of the marine activities Upstream and Downstream of the Value Chain:

4. Designation of the Marine Manufacturing and its Challenges
Designated sector for local procurement at 60% local content: The Instruction Note (and its revised version) ~ with intense involvement of the industry. The rational behind designation of the Marine Manufacturing:
Labour absorbing nature of the industry
The ramification (linkage) of the industry with the rest of the economy. Impact (important multipliers) to many other industries in the value chain (VC)
Benefit of Designation does not trickle down along the value chain because of marine standard requirement for components.
A marine certification of product is required to supply to the industry
Economy of scale is needed for further investment in the manufacturing processes
List of exempted products is growing exponentially
There is no a product case to show as result of designation

6. (AISI - CSIR is the implementing partner)
Components Manufacturing: Certification and Accreditation
Key Action : Support for Accreditation and certification of components to Marine Class and standard
(AISI - CSIR is the implementing partner)
The programme will assist local components manufacturers to produce components that respond to the world class requirements and specifications of marine accreditation of components.
Components into waterborne vessels require to be approved to a specified marine standard. Marine standard for locally manufactured components is rarely adhered to by the local industry.

7. Key Action Programmes for the Success of the Industry
Local Demand: Localisation & Access to Local Market
Components manufacturing Certification and Accreditation
Industrial Financing
Skills Development
Innovation Framework: Naval Design
Infrastructure
Access to African Market
Transformation

11. Marine Manufacturing and Repairs Supply Development Programme (MMRSDP)
Why is AISI implementing the MMRSDP?
About the MMRSDP:
Programme aims to make targeted interventions to improve industry competitiveness
Assist (marine) manufacturers to address issues that hinder/prevent participation in the marine value chain (locally or internationally)
Benefit systems/components manufacturers
from other (non-marine) sectors by providing new opportunities, or
open new markets for existing marine suppliers
Programme provides assistance in addressing issues related to:
Standards and Certifications (focus of the programme)
Technology Enhancement

12. MMRSDP – Standards and Certifications Intervention
Inadequate compliance with marine certifications and accreditations hindering local suppliers from entering marine value chain
AISI is identifying a limited number of manufacturers to benefit from marine certifications
Support will focus on :
Implementation/auditing of components/systems
Engineering support, e.g. design assessment
Testing and related services
…to obtain marine certifications

13. MMRSDP – Standards and Certifications Intervention
Targeted components include (but not limited to): pumps; valves; refrigeration systems; cranes and davits; hydraulic equipment; etc.
Qualifying companies must be:
Component/system manufacturer; component for use in marine industry
SA registered company; B-BBEE and tax compliant
Expression of Interest (EoI) process:

14. MMRSDP – Technology Enhancement Intervention
Technology enhancement is a critical aspect for marine manufacturers for organisational growth
Development/enhancement of new technologies, processes, and manufacturing methods to remain competitive on a global stage
Similar EoI process as in Standards and Certifications Intervention
Support will focus on:
Technology validation
Utilise national infrastructure to develop/enhance specified technologies (e.g. testing)
Technology transfer
Transfer relevant technology from e.g. established shipyard, CSIR, TEI to a manufacturer

15. MMRSDP – How to Participate
Submit an EoI proposal, details can be found at
Concise proposal template will require:
Company information (profile, experience, etc.)
Information about the support being sought (budget, timescales, feasibility)
Impact of the intervention (detail depending on budget)
Supporting documentation
Evaluation based on scorecard (Experience, B-BBEE/black ownership, Impact)
Please come and speak to us, we are here to help!
