Material misstatements in the financial statements were identified Management did not provide effective leadership …to ensure that staff properly understands the code of conduct implemented and adheres to it The Fund lacks finance leadership with adequate management, financial and accounting skills and competencies. Management did not implement controls including clearing of a number of suspense accounts for the Funds business processes. Management has not implemented a process to monitor compliance with rules and regulations resulting in numerous non compliance matters reported The Fund risk management assessments were not adequate to ensure that risks…were adequately identified and a risk strategy monitored LIKELIHOOD OF A DISCLAIMER FOR THE FUND FOR 2012/13 9

numerous negative media exposure both on radio shows (eg. Talk Radio 702) and television (eg. Fokus on SABC1) increasing complaints to the Public Protector demands from different associations and groups to discuss and complain about services from the Fund (eg. SACCI, SASOM) various litigations and demands as a result of poor service delivery non payment of claims and increasing backlog of unprocessed claims backlogs in the issuing of Letters of Good Standing N O 12

RMA Systems Pilot -This is a systems approach to addressing organisational challenges -A requirement for this approach is that the organisation must be mature and stable eg. SARS -If successful, it will address the claims systems problems -However, it will not address the people issues, process challenges, organisational problems, change management etc. -This is again a silo approach to addressing organisational problems 13
14
Lessons learnt from previous systems implementation : -Reliance that system will fix all problems -Over reliance on service provider -No internal technical skills -No proficient project management component -Super users provided training to all users -Change management was lacking 14

16 Scenario 1 – “Limping along” Continue in the current manner oblivious of the outcry for improvement and efficient services. Doing what you can do under the circumstances. Scenario 2 – “Is this the best?” Some efficiencies and optimisation is visible, but there is much more to do. Addressing issues in a silo manner that might improve one area, but will not address others. Also not being aware that the improvement in one area could compromise other areas eg. implementing a system, but the people to use it are so dissatisfied with the organisation, they jeopardise progress. Scenario 3 – “You can’t do it, let someone else try” No improvements have been noted, several failed attempts. Allow someone else with different ideas and views to try and turn this around and optimise the way things are done. Scenario 4 – “Catch the Gautrain” A total organisational turnaround has occurred. Services have improved and are accessible through various channels for all citizens, at their convenience. All key business elements are functioning well together ie. people, processes, systems, finances etc. ON TRACK, ON TIME, FAST AND EFFICIENT
17
THE NEED FOR AN ORGANISATIONAL TURNAROUND STRATEGY -Drop the silo based approach to addressing the CF problems -Adopt a holistic approach to the dysfunctional organisation -Understand that certain elements impact on each other eg. people and processes. Addressing one element will not automatically fix the others. -Address the fundamental problems -Understand the underlying problems (forensic) and address these and not the symptoms -Requires both internal and external skills and expertise -Will ensure that all resources are utilised optimally going forward -Is a long term process, but also ensures long term sustainability and efficiency 17
