11. Key Challenges  Our challenge is not just to provide the additional sporting infrastructure demanded by FIFA for the World Cup, but to ensure that the provision of this infrastructure supports: –Development of human resources for service delivery excellence. –Development of planning and financial estimating, prioritisation, budgeting for both capital investment and life-cycle operation. –Strengthening decision making and implementation capability. –Development of the skills of managers, the professions and artisans to deliver and operate infrastructure. –A commitment to long-term sustainability. Development…

12. Competing Demands for Resources …  Unlike Australia (2000 Sydney Olympics) or Germany (2006 FIFA World Cup), South Africa is a developing country with significant gaps in our social and economic infrastructure.  Specifically, there are significant needs for: –Housing. –Water and sanitation. –Municipal utilities. –Roads and transport. –Schools. –Clinics and hospitals and –Associated community facilities. Key Challenges

13. Delivery Systems… Our delivery systems – from planning, capital cost estimation, procurement through implementation to long-term operation and maintenance of infrastructure – are at varying levels of excellence. Key Challenges

14. Supply Chain Management and Procurement…  For large construction/works projects Municipal Supply Chain Management Regulations require a committee system for competitive bids: –A bid specification committee. –A bid evaluation committee. –A bid adjudication committee (considers the recommendations of the bid evaluation committee).  Due to tight timelines for delivery of infrastructure the procurement function has to: –Perform effectively and efficiently. –Ensure no errors in scopes of work etc. –Reduce the risk of litigation due to disaffected “companies bidding for work”. Key Challenges

15. Contract Disbursement Rates… Key Challenges For a stadium costing 1 billion rand and to be constructed over 30 months the disbursement rate will have to be 33 million rand/month. Example:
