COVER STORY

ATEGO AND AXOR

Fascinating special trucks The new Atego and Axor continue the long-established legacy of Mercedes-Benz trucks and bring unprecedented comfort and functionality to distribution operations.

T

HE NEW Mercedes-Benz Atego and Axor models are distinguished by their modern Actros-style appearance. The newly designed front section, featuring a striking radiator grille, emphasises the fact that these vehicles belong to Mercedes-Benz’s heavy-duty truck range.

“The new Atego and the new

14 - LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011

Axor continue a long-established legacy of Mercedes-Benz medium-duty trucks,” says Christo Kleynhans, product manager: Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles.

Comprehensively revamped cockpit The interior of the cab offers a wealth of new features. All variants are now equipped with a multifunction steering wheel to operate the on-board computer, telephone and radio. The new anti-glare instrument cluster features chrome ring surrounds for the speedometer and rev counter.

The standard equipment of both

the new Atego and Axor further includes new seat covers, head restraints integrated into the backrests and a clothes rail with adjustable hooks. The cockpits of both these models have been designed to cater for specific needs and feature a host of stowage options, as well as ergonomically positioned controls that are within easy reach of the driver. The easy through-cab access for both the driver and co-driver allows for freedom of movement during delivery.

The Axor comes standard with a state-of-the-ar t communications centre, including a new radio with

COVER STORY

Bluetooth capabilities and a CD player with control functions incorporated into the multifunction steering wheel.

There are two cab sizes in the new Atego: a standard cab with two individual seats for the driver and co-driver or the optional distribution long cab. This additional space allows for safe storage or a bench seat that is ideally suited to carrying a small work crew.

The new Axor continues to offer the unique choice of three different cab sizes. The standard short cab is ideal for day-to-day operations. In the freight carrier and truck tractor models, this cab comes with a fold-up bunk. The low-roof sleeper cab is best suited for medium-distance haulage, and the highroof sleeper cab for long-distance routes. The spacious low-roof sleeper cab with a standard bed is comfortable and practical, while the high-roof sleeper cab provides a generous feeling of space and additional stowage areas behind the seats.

Both the Atego and the Axor

have excellent rear visibility thanks to the electronically adjustable, aerodynamic exterior mirrors (standard on the co-driver’s side), as well as the wide-angle rear-view mirror located below the main mirror. The exterior mirrors are also heated so there is no risk of their misting over. The new bumper-view mirror will provide assistance with moving in tight spaces, and for further safety while manoeuvring and parking a reverse warning buzzer has been integrated into the reverse light. As these vehicles are used extensively in the distribution of goods, this is a valuable additional safety feature.

Broad range of drive configurations Two proven engines designed to Euro 3 standard cover the Atego range, from 130 kW (177 hp) with 675 Nm of torque in the fourcylinder guise and 170 kW (231 hp) and 810 Nm of torque and 205 kW (279 hp) and 1 100 Nm of torque in the six-cylinder models.

The Axor is mated to the six-cylinder in-line engine with a displacement of 6 ℓ and 12 ℓ.

Peak torque ranges from 1 100 Nm for the engine with 205 kW (279 hp) and 1 850 Nm for the 260 kW (354 hp) engine to 2 000 Nm of torque for the engine with 295 kW (401 hp) of power, at 1 250 r/min and 1 100 r/ min respectively. Both these engines are also Euro 3 compliant.

The Telligent® engine management system allows these engines to reach their peak torque in the r/min range, which means that power is available when it is needed most and there is lower fuel consumption.

The optional Telligent® automated gearshift in the Atego range enables the driver to concentrate fully on driving and combines comfort with convenience. This automated gearshift is also kind to the transmission components, ensuring a long transmission service life, so drivers have a comfortable ride while operators enjoy the economic benefits.

“These engines are well suited to the typography and rugged conditions of the South African roads and their reliability has been proven over a number of years,” adds Kleynhans.

LEFT Two proven engines designed to Euro 3 standard cover the Atego range from 130 kW with 675 Nm of torque in the 4-cylinder guise and 170 kW and 810 Nm of torque and 205 kW and 1 100 Nm of torque in the 6-cylinder models

Safety elements Mercedes-Benz is synonymous with safety, and the cab interior and exterior, expressive and attractive, with a striking resemblance to the Actros, places an emphasis on safety.

The antilock braking system (ABS), which is standard across both the Atego and Axor ranges, is based on a dual-circuit brake system and is a safety feature that prevents lock-up of the wheels during braking.

In addition, a select number of Axor trucks are fitted standard with the ‘Turbobrake’ engine brake, a wear-free auxiliary brake that increases the boost pressure and therefore increases the engine braking effect to as much as 300 kW. Air conditioning, additional side- and rearview mirrors, seat adjustments and a more user-friendly cab are all features that are designed and built to make the journey of the truck driver safe and productive.

The new Axor features two keys in a new design, which function fully to open and close the doors as well as the steering wheel and diesel tank locks.

The new Atego and Axor ranges are very good ‘all rounders’ and can be used in virtually any industry, from construction and building, to timber and mining, to professional haulage. These trucks are ideally suited to transporting raw material such as timber, sugar cane and mining material, as well as sophisticated, finished consumer goods and products.

CharterWay The Atego and Axor vehicles are highly desirable trucks for distribution operators.

To accommodate such customers, a valueadded product called CharterWay Service Leasing is available to facilitate the purchasing or upgrading of a fleet of vehicles.

The CharterWay Service Leasing product is supported by Mercedes-Benz Financial Services and has a modular range of services to offer a high degree of flexibility to transport operators in terms of lease duration and maintenance cover (the latter is available separately if required).

CharterWay effectively transfers the risk of truck ownership from the customer to the supplier, and the client knows exactly what their monthly expenses are based on the predetermined monthly rental. The CharterWay Service Leasing products include

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 15

ABOVE The Axor is mated to a six-cylinder in-line engine with a displacement of 6-litre and 12-litres

the Complete and BestBasic packages. The choice between these packages will be based on the amount of risk the customer wishes to transfer out of their business, from a ‘service only’ plan up to a full maintenance plan, in this way outsourcing maximum risk.

Warranty Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles offers an extended warranty of three years on the

Powertrain or a specified maximum kilometre limit for trucks in the Mercedes-Benz Actros, Axor and Atego ranges.

This kilometre limit warranty is valid up to a mileage of 450 000 km per three years for Actros and Axor in all operations, with the exception of vehicles in start/stop operations, where the kilometre limit warranty is 250 000 km per three years.

These units are primarily tippers and concrete mixers used for heavy-duty construction, where mileage covered on a per annum basis is minimal.

Warranty on the Atego Powertrain is three years, with the driveline warranty being a 250 000 maximum kilometre limit.

With this warranty coverage on the Powertrain of the Actros, Axor and Atego ranges of trucks, Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicles is reinforcing its confidence in the quality of the product. Not only is the company offering customers an extremely competitively priced product, but it is also providing the assurance of support from the

Mercedes-Benz dealer network, parts and services throughout Southern Africa.

This value-added product offers the customer peace of mind and also ensures that customers view the Mercedes-Benz brand as a truly professional partner for all transport requirements.

“These new-generation Atego and Axor trucks are renowned for their versatility, manoeuvrability, robustness and quality,” concludes Kleynhans.

The comprehensive Mercedes-Benz Commercial Vehicle dealer network is strategically placed throughout Southern Africa and these state-of-the-art facilities offer sales, service and parts. Trained personnel are on hand to provide greater service and support than ever before. In addition, Mercedes-Benz Finance and Insurance business managers are based in these new dealerships and brand centres for finance, leasing, insurance and fleet management, and will complete the satisfactory customer experience.

T

HE INSTITUTE LEADS THE WAY in terms of emphasising the message of infrastructure asset management and maintenance, which will be a driving factor in the world of municipal engineering in the months and years to come.

The eight technical directors of the institute will be addressing the significant challenges concerning skills development, housing, sanitation, the quality of drinking water, job creation and transportation.

2011 marks IMESA’s jubilee year and celebrations will be on an international scale.

Testament to this is that the International Federation of Municipal Engineering (IFME)

will be holding its board meeting at IMESA’s annual conference in October. In addition, the institute will be hosting a large contingent of its peers from several countries.

From small beginnings in 1962, the institute has grown to represent more than 1 000 individual members as well as many companies from Southern Africa involved in the field of municipal engineering and the built environment.

IMESA actively promotes the process of creating, developing, integrating, sharing and applying knowledge about infrastructure engineering and infrastructure asset management for the benefit of our profession and our communities.

Municipalities are key role players in identifying, prioritising, funding and implementing integrated development planning and community-based programmes. Fur thermore, the delivery of municipal services affects some of the most fundamental aspects of human development, including economic welfare, health and dignity.

It has been seen how the lack of service delivery at a municipal level has substantially affected the public’s confidence and satisfaction levels in South Africa; clearly a shift in tempo and a greater commitment to finding and implementing workable and sustainable solutions is required on the

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICE DELIVERY part of government and all stakeholders, including IMESA. It is also important to recognise that although some of the challenges are contextual and unique to South Africa, many are shared with other countries around the world. Globally, as a result of capital expenditure on infrastructure, a city for one million inhabitants is being built every five days.

The implication is that soon we will need to produce 19 billion meals a day. To achieve this we require: • viable land • water infrastructure • processing assets • transport infrastructure • waste disposal • all the associated supporting infrastructure services.

While there is much emphasis on the delivery of new infrastructure, it does not end with the

arrangement between IMESA and SALGA. This was confirmed with the handover of a membership certificate at a ceremony in Pretoria on 24 March 2011.

Probably the greatest challenge facing municipalities in South Africa is that of asset management: the effective and methodical recording of all accumulated assets with a view to managing them today and maintaining them for the future in the most costeffective manner possible.

With this in mind, IMESA has developed an innovative and comprehensive asset management methodology that will not only help municipalities to ensure GRAP 17 compliance by capturing the data needed to generate GRAP 17 registers, but to apply this information to improving long-term municipal asset management and maintenance planning. The ultimate goal, of course, is to enable municipalities to use this newfound

Although some of the challenges are contextual and unique to South Africa, many are shared with other countries around the world commissioning of the infrastructure asset. It is critical that adequate budgets and asset maintenance and management plans are put in place for existing and new additions to the infrastructure asset base. South Africa cannot continue to allow built infrastructure to decay – particularly when we consider that an improvement in the management of our assets will generate a significant number of jobs, a national priority.

One of the major challenges municipal engineers face, however, is the skills shortage in our profession. In 1980, around 3 000 civil engineering professionals were employed by municipalities. By 2008, the number had dropped to around 1 400.

A second major challenge is that, at present, no formal broad-based audits of the state of municipal infrastructure are carried out, which means there is no clear idea of how bad the problem is. This needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency, so IMESA can strategise and make decisions based on accurate information.

IMESA has launched its IMESA Infrastructure Management System (IIMS), which will assist municipalities with Generally Recognised Accounting Practices (GRAP) 17 compliance and the management of their infrastructure assets.

Another exciting development is the Professional Af filiate Membership

knowledge to provide improved service delivery to their communities.

IMESA believes that the system is very accessible to the user and uncomplicated in terms of its general implementation; it is thus ideal for use across all municipalities.

By standardising data collection, the system will provide municipalities with a means to monitor the following in terms of infrastructure assets (immovable) and movable assets and to generate a GRAP 17 asset register: • location • componentisation • asset impairment (based on the condition of each asset) • remaining useful life • maintenance backlogs and maintenance costs and cash flow for the next five years • future asset replacement cash flow and replacement requirements • asset lifecycle replacement costs.

Municipalities will have at their fingertips standardised records of the condition of their infrastructure, enabling them to determine on an ongoing basis the impairment and maintenance needs of the infrastructure, thus providing opportunities for informed planning.

The system further provides for the storage and access of useful and important documentation relating to: • the calculation of asset valuations

THE INSTITUTE OF MUNICIPAL ENGINEERING OF SOUTHERN AFRICA IMESA is a voluntary association of engineering professionals and associates that is primarily in the business of facilitating the development of its members through the establishment and expansion of knowledge resources and networking.

Its primary objective is to promote the interests of its members and to develop professional knowledge and skills in order to empower its members to promote service excellence on local, provincial, national and international levels. It aims to improve the quality of life of all citizens through infrastructure engineering excellence and innovation.

Since its formation in 1962, IMESA has grown to represent over 1 000 individual members and many companies from several countries in Southern Africa that are involved in municipal engineering and the built environment. It has played a significant role in municipal engineering, acting as a catalyst to share and develop new initiatives. Municipalities are key role players in identifying, prioritising, funding and implementing integrated development planning and community-based programmes.

The institution also advises municipal councils on municipal engineering matters and serves the broader community through representation on a number of bodies where it provides input from the municipal engineer’s perspective.

IMESA believes firmly in education, knowledge development and knowledge sharing.

• policies that support asset management processes.

Through the implementation of the IIMS, IMESA will prepare a simple and standard method for determining the current replacement cost (CRC) of infrastructure assets, which will assist the municipalities with the allocation of budgets and prioritisation of maintenance and, furthermore, enable them to determine immediate and long-term financial requirements. Methodical planning will also undoubtedly improve productivity and enhance co-operation between technical and financial staff, which in turn should improve service delivery.

The infrastructure data is loaded into the database and hosted on a dedicated secure server with daily data backup. Municipalities will have access to their data 24 hours per day, seven days a week. IMESA believes that a centralised approach to software provision and data hosting will prove more

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 21

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICE DELIVERY cost-effective to municipalities than similar products, because IMESA would provide the specialised server and IT staff required.

Furthermore, municipalities would have access to IMESA leverage and be able to

The software is offered free of charge, with no limit to the number of individual user licences within each municipality. In order to

South African municipalities have to build their capacity in asset management as a matter of urgency utilise the wealth of experience within IMESA (which is of particular value to municipalities with few or no technical skills).

In order to implement the IIMS, the municipalities would be required to provide the following information: • existing infrastructure (immovable) and/or movable asset register • asset number in the financial system • type of asset • acquisition date of asset • asset location (preferably in GIS shape file format) • asset dimension/size (not essential if shape file is provided)

recover the costs of support as well as hosting of the asset data, IMESA will charge a nominal monthly maintenance fee.

IMESA is currently involved in a number of initiatives with regard to infrastructure asset management (IAM). South African municipalities have to build their capacity in asset management as a matter of urgency if they are to meet their service delivery mandates. Critical issues that need to be addressed are: • high growth stresses • ageing assets (resulting in reliability failures/risks) • high debt (resulting in municipalities going bankrupt)

• inadequate budgets to per form responsibilities • a large backlog of un-served demand • inadequate maintenance • insufficiently stringent regulation reviews (price and/or performance) • inadequate staff resources.

The National Treasur y has developed a series of technical competency dictionaries called the Competency Framework (CFFM).

These cover the major occupational groups in the field of public financial management and set out a series of descriptions of the skills and knowledge required of a competent practitioner in carr ying out a number of standard tasks at various levels of responsibility within the overall function.

An asset management accounting system has also been adopted. The Accounting Standards Board is required in terms of the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA) (No. 1 of 1999), as amended, to determine GRAP. These are referred to as the Standards of GRAP. GRAP 17 on property, plant and equipment makes it clear that:

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICE DELIVERY “property, plant and equipment are tangible assets that: • are held by an entity for use in the production or supply of goods or ser vices, for rental to others, or for administrative purposes, and • are expected to be used during more than one reporting period”.

To assist people in the implementation of the above, the National Treasur y has put together a Local Government Capital Asset Management Guideline, available on its website (http://www.treasur y.gov.za).

IMESA is well placed to advise and suppor t municipalities regarding asset management-related issues. In November 2010, IMESA was requested by the National Treasur y to deliver a presentation, based on the perspective of an engineer, giving practical advice on how a municipality should go about tasks such as: identifying its infrastructure assets, conducting valuations, carr ying out impairment tests, determining useful lives and maintaining and unbundling assets.

The starting point of the IMESA presentation was to highlight that asset management consists of three interconnected components, namely: • The asset: the physical item required to achieve the service (including the purpose of the asset, life cycle cost, operation and maintenance, asset register and replacement).

• People: operators with the skills to operate the asset effectively and technicians with the necessary skills to maintain it.

• Finance: the funds needed to keep the asset operational (includes funding the required skills).

It is not enough to work purely at the municipal level, however. If improved service delivery is to be achieved, asset management should be coordinated at a national level. A National Asset Management Strategy would offer the following benefits: • a more effective, ‘whole city’ approach • no more ‘reinventing the wheel’, resulting in the elimination of duplication and wasteful activities (e.g. valuations)

• the ability to judge the merits of diverse programmes, select the best and implement them out using a uniform, coordinated, holistic approach to businesses, cities and the nation • enhanced implementation • enhanced sustainability • the enabling of leading organisations to assist in driving asset management in smaller organisations • more accessible mentoring and advice • rapid dissemination of best asset practice.

Owing to a lack of technical knowledge of the subjects, the Local Government SETA (LGSETA) has requested IMESA’s assistance with the assessment, accreditation, programme approval, monitoring, evaluation and auditing of training courses. It has been proposed that a formal memorandum of understanding be drawn up, confirming that IMESA will become a quality partner to LGSETA and will assist by offering technical expertise in the education and training quality assurance (ETQA) process.

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICE DELIVERY

Budgeting for the future “What are we going to leave to our children? Will they have municipal infrastructure that gives them clean water, or will it make them sick? Will we leave behind efficient, responsive municipalities, or municipalities that waste resources and do not listen to people?”

T

HESE WERE THE WORDS of MEC Anton Bredell, Western Cape provincial legislature, during his 2010/11 budget speech for the Western Cape Department of Local Government. The lack of service delivery at the municipal level appears to be particularly bad in certain provinces, with, for example, 68% of the operational budget for the KwaZulu-Natal provincial Department of Human Settlements being spent on personnel. Local Government Supplier takes a look at the municipal budget speeches for all nine provinces with regard to infrastructure and service delivery.

Western Cape “One of the things that we must get right is our investment in the roads and pipes and sewerage plants that give us our basic services,” reiterates Bredell. “We must maintain what we have, we must build new infrastructure, and we must have skilled technical

people in municipalities.” The Western Cape Department of Local Government has been hard at work addressing these issues. The department developed a Bulk Infrastructure Master Plan for water and sanitation for the province. In addition to the master plan, the department will assist municipalities within the province with developing a register of all of their assets, such as roads, pipes and sewerage plants. This register will include information on the age of these assets and when they should be replaced. According to Bredell, this will have a huge effect on municipal budgeting because it will tell municipalities how much of their budget must be dedicated to maintaining infrastructure.

The department’s turnaround strategy in September 2009 revealed that people do not see visible change in their communities.

For them, a municipal integrated development plan is simply a document – it does not speak to their lives. During the past financial

year, 30 municipalities in the Western Cape submitted integrated development plans and 28 of the 30 plans met the basic requirements for being a credible integrated development plan.

Eastern Cape During his 2010/11 address, MEC for finance in the Eastern Cape, Mcebisi Jonas, said that his department wanted to avoid a situation in which overspending on employee costs is financed through under-spending on the critical procurement of infrastructure projects and goods and services.

Local government is a crucial component of the Eastern Cape’s public service delivery system and the transformation of this sphere has probably been the largest undertaking within the entire transformation process.

To improve economic development and access to basic services in the Eastern Cape, the provincial government undertakes

INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND SERVICE DELIVERY sustained spending on infrastructure development, mainly targeting the building and improvement of roads and logistics infrastructure, health facilities, education and social infrastructure. Going forward, the province will be improving infrastructure planning through the establishment of a Centre for Public Infrastructure Delivery (in the Department of Public Works). The province aims to eradicate mud schools by 2014. In this regard, an additional R2.5 billion (outside of the budget) is being arranged. The housing allocation was specifically aimed at delivering 20 000 housing units for the 2009/10 financial year to rectify 9 000 defective houses in the province, unblock all blocked housing projects and implement emergency housing programmes.

Total revenues of the provincial fiscus in 2010/11 are budgeted to be R48 million.

This is a 14.2% increase on the amount budgeted a year ago, for the 2009/10 financial year. Depending on the rate of price inflation over the coming year, this could represent a 9% increase in real terms. The provincial government has an additional R6.18 billion in revenue compared with a year ago.

Medium-term expenditure is budgeted to be in excess of R155.24 billion. Comparing the 2010/11 departmental allocations with those of 2009/10, major departments received above-average increases in their allocations, namely: • The Department of Education’s budget increases by 16.6%.

• The Department of Health’s budget increases by 17.8%.

• The Department of Housing’s budget increases by 23.8%.

These above-average increases are aligned with the very high priority that has been attached to improving the delivery of education, health and housing in the province. In addition, the Hospital Revitalisation Programme increases its budget by 51% to nearly R361 million and the Housing Development Programme increases its budget by 22% to nearly R1.6 billion.

Gauteng In her 2010/11 budget speech, MEC Nonhlanhla Faith Mazibuko said on behalf of the Gauteng Department of Infrastructure Development that they are pained to see that most of the built environment skills are in dire shortage, especially among the previously disadvantaged.

The department is tasked with the

management of construction-related projects for all Gauteng provincial government departments, ranging from simple repairs and maintenance to multimillion rand capital works projects. With a CAPEX allocation of R347.865 million, the department will be completing 55 capital projects during the 2010/11 financial year. Of these CAPEX projects, 10 will be for the Department of Health and Social Development, 32 will be schools for the Department of Education and four will be for the Department of Agriculture.

There will be 69 new building projects, and these CAPEX projects will see the creation of 4 506 jobs.

R30.70 million has been allocated for all maintenance-related projects in the province. Working together with client departments, the department has identified the Chris Hani Baragwanath, Charlotte Maxeke, Helen Joseph, Tambo Memorial, Kalafong and Carletonville hospitals as its planned maintenance projects.

Free State The Infrastructure Development Programme in the Free State will be central in driving the expansion and diversification of productive industries in the province. This includes the construction industry and supplier industries.

Procurement in the construction industry should contribute to the development of local economies, as well as that of the province.

The provincial budget grows from an adjusted R19.35 billion in 2009/10 to R21.40 billion in 2010/11, R23 billion in 2011/12 and R24.1 billion in 2012/13. An amount of R281.1 million has been set aside to deal with the Improvement of Conditions Service (ICS) for the province’s health-care sector, while an additional R403 million is being allocated for the upgrade of roads. The total allocation for infrastructure development, including the Human Settlement Grant, for the 2010/11 financial year is R3.76 billion.

The Department of Public Works and Rural Development, focusing on rural development within the province, will receive an additional R114 million to its current R804 million, increasing the budget to R948.3 million for 2010/11. The Department of Human Settlements receives an additional R350 million, increasing its budget to R1.37 billion, which will be used to address the issue of affordable, sustainable housing. MEC for Finance, Seiso Mohai, said in his 2010/11 budget speech that the procurement processes will be reviewed,

with the aim of introducing efficiency and a reduction of costs.

Limpopo After a baseline cut of R224.95 million, the consolidated budget of the Limpopo provincial government increased from R35.95 billion for 2009/10 to R39.65 billion for the 2010/11 financial year. Over the medium-term expenditure framework (MTEF) period, the province will be spending R127 billion, of which 80% of the total equitable share, excluding conditional grants, is allocated to education, health and social development. An allocated budget of R5.566 billion for the 2010/11 financial year across departments for infrastructure development is as follows: • education: R1.022 billion • agriculture: R256.636 million • health: R894.799 million • roads and transport: R1.999 billion • economic development: R3.407 million • public works: R57.500 million • local government and housing: R1.234 billion • social development: R75.424 million • sport, arts and culture: R23 million.

Unless maintenance is improved, funds to address the cost of repairs and unplanned replacements will have to be sourced from capital budgets.

Mpumalanga Infrastructure delivery has been prioritised and special funding to the value of R500 million has been made available for goods and services from non-core spending items. This funding has been directed to the Department of Education and the Department of Health to fund medicines and infrastructure, among others, in both departments.

R56.6 million is allocated for 2010/11 to the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) grant for the social sector. Of the EPWP Incentive Grant for the infrastructure sector, Mpumalanga’s share is R18.074 million for 2010/11, and this allocation is shared between the Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport and the Department of Agriculture, Rural Development and Land Administration. In addition, the province’s share of the infrastructure grant for 2012/13 that is allocated to schools upgrade, library facilities and laboratories and maintenance is R21.387 million.

The Overload Control Grant funds initiatives for the preservation of road infrastructure and receives R5.519 million for 2010/11. The

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 25

EPWP Incentive Grant for the infrastructure sector receives R17.900 million. It is proposed that the Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport receive R3.330 billion. The National Tertiary Services Grant aims to provide strategic funding to enable provinces to plan, modernise and transform the tertiary hospital service delivery platform in line with national policy objectives. This grant receives R91.879 million for 2010/11, R96.858 million for 2011/12 and R101.700 million for 2012/13. The total budget proposed to be appropriated by the Department of Human Settlements for the 2010/11 financial year is R26.1 billion.

Northern Cape For the 2009/10 financial year, the Department of Human Settlements received a conditional grant allocation of R173 million and an additional R152 million for priority projects from the Integrated Housing and Human Settlements Development Grant. In total, the Northern Cape received R325 million for human settlements development in 2009/10. A total of 3 455 houses were built and 469 sites were serviced in all five districts of the province at the end of December 2009. In addition, 1 848 title deeds were transferred to families, with all housing beneficiaries receiving the basic services of sanitation, water and electricity.

North West A total budget of R1.4 billion was allocated to the Department of Human Settlements. The sector is working closely with municipalities within the Northern Cape on projects as follows: • In the next financial year 500 rental housing units will be constructed.

• A total of 20 000 housing units will be registered for upgrading from informal settlements to formal settlements.

• An estimated 27 000 applications for housing subsidies will be processed during the 2010/11 financial year.

A total budget of R2.6 million was allocated to the Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport. A portion of this budget is earmarked for conditional grant funding to deal with the issues of road infrastructure and bus subsidies, amounting to R698 million. The department will, among other things, strive to construct and maintain provincial road infrastructure and improve the management of the provincial airports and aviation-related infrastructure and activities.

R679 million has been allocated to the Department of Agriculture.

KwaZulu-Natal The provincial Department of Education continues to address backlogs in the provision of classrooms, administration offices and toilets. For the 2010/11 financial year, R2.031 billion has been set aside for infrastructural developments. The majority of schools that sustain extensive storm damages are in rural areas. Since 2008, 555 schools have been damaged and this will cost approximately R234 million to repair. This is over and above the infrastructure backlog of 7 550 standard classrooms, 9 936 toilet seats and 3 435 administration blocks.

R2 847 909 was allocated to the Integrated Housing and Human Settlement Development Grant for 2010/11. The annual growth rate in equitable share funding (2006/07 to 2010/11) has been 6.8%, while that of the conditional grant funding grew annually by 29%. The equitable share budget of the department was further cut by 4.2% over the 2009/10 MTEF period. Of the department’s operational budget, R173 million (68%) is committed to personnel expenditure.

WATER, ENVIRONMENT AND SOLID WASTE

Water industry perspective Water shortages, acid mine drainage, inadequate service delivery, water pollution and insufficient water resource management are just some of the challenges that the South African water sector is confronted with, according to WISA president Anderson Mancotywa.

A

CCORDING TO A report recently released by the CSIR, entitled A CSIR perspective on water in South Africa 2010, our water resources face greater pressure as the South African population increases, with social, political and economic activities driving environmental change. Our modern day-to-day consumption patterns challenge and compromise our water

resources, and examples of these include: • Infrastructure: the many control structures and the dams and weirs that we need to secure water during low rainfall periods and supply to areas of high demand.

• Agriculture: providing the food supply for the nation.

• Energy, industry and mining, all supplying jobs and commodities.

The report states that the biggest threat to a sustainable water supply in South Africa is not a lack of storage, but the contamination of available water resources through pollution. Without a radical improvement in water quality management approaches and treatment technologies, the progressive worsening of water quality will continue to decrease the benefits and increase the LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 31

WATER, ENVIRONMENT AND SOLID WASTE costs associated with the use of our country’s water resources.

The challenge for South Africa lies in the efficient and balanced use of water, together with other natural resources, to create an environment that is conducive to social and economic well-being.

What issues are we currently dealing with in the water sector?

According to Anderson Mancotywa, president of the Water Institute of Southern Africa (WISA), there is an increasing demand for water as more and more consumers are linked into the system. South Africa is a water scarce countr y and we therefore need to conser ve and use this precious resource sparingly. Ser vice deliver y in the water and sanitation sectors in both urban and rural areas remains a top challenge at the local government level. More specifically, issues relating to rehabilitating and maintaining aging infrastructure, as well as the planning and implementation of new infrastructure projects, are priorities,

with water and wastewater quality issues, including water quality threats from acid mine drainage, sur face pollution, etc., being high on the agenda.

Informal settlements come with their own set of problems, as in some cases there is no form of sanitation that can be employed for residents living in the area. In some instances these are flood plain areas.

However, in urban areas reasonable progress has been made with regard to potable water supply, with most consumers having access to potable water within the RDP standards, but there remains a challenge in the provision of sanitation ser vices.

With agriculture and rural development also high on the agenda, more work needs to be done in providing water and sanitation ser vices to support these projects in rural areas.

An overall issue is the limited human resources skills base, which complicates compliance-related matters.

Commenting on how the challenges are being dealt with and whether we are making

progress, Mancotywa says, “Strict control by the Department of Human Settlements and other affected stakeholders with regard to the eradication of informal settlements and the allocation of houses is important.

Providing quality ser vices, supporting agriculture and rural development projects and improving the quality of life in the rural communities will result in reduced influx to urban areas.

“Of significance is the introduction of the Blue and Green Drop certification, which is indeed playing a vital role in improving quality of ser vice deliver y across the countr y. It is evident that the commitment of municipalities across the countr y is improving since this initiative has been introduced. The need to attach a Blue and Green Drop report for water and sanitation budget approval is also putting pressure on municipalities to improve their operations.

It is important to note that the number of municipalities that have achieved this prestigious status as well as that have improved their operations has increased

WISA’s role and expertise WISA’s role in the sector is to find solutions to the water challenges we are faced with locally, across our borders into Southern Africa and worldwide. WISA provides forums for the water sector to interact on a broad range of water-related topics. The strength of WISA is in its more than 3 000 members: with such an extensive pool of specialists, the members provide knowledge and advice on a range of important water issues. WISA is extensively involved in capacitating the next generation of young professionals in the water sector through the Young Water Professionals programme. In addition, the organisation monitors good governance and arbitrates on disputes. WISA can train the trainers and promote the water sector’s performance.

This is achieved through the reputation of its members working in water and wastewater treatment works, wet industries, research and educational institutions, consulting firms and government departments. WISA needs to increase its membership, especially in the local government sector, in order to strengthen its operations. WISA engages with various stakeholders, such as the departments of agriculture, water and environmental affairs, minerals and energy, basic education and higher learning, etc. in sharing information and building capacity. Its members avail themselves to forums, schools and any other organisations to provide talks on water issues during events such as National Water Week and Sanitation Week. The organisation runs short courses through its 10 technical divisions in order to improve the skills, knowledge and efficiency of employees working in the water sector.

Uplifting the sector The purpose of WISA is to build expertise, share knowledge and improve quality of life.

Looking ahead Commenting on future challenges, Mancotywa firstly mentions that the financial

drastically from the time these assessments were first introduced.

status of municipalities is of great concern.

The delay in addressing maintenance backlogs places a strain on the aging infrastructure and the cost of addressing this keeps escalating. The organisation is in a position to provide assistance with such a variety of issues through its members’ wealth of expertise and their sharing of knowledge and information will definitely assist decision makers with prioritising projects within the sector. WISA’s Vision 2015 has been put together so that the organisation can expand in order to tackle the challenges that the sector faces in this rapidly changing environment effectively. Various strategic plans have been identified, which may go beyond one year on implementation. The organisation also needs to work closely with the Department of Water Affairs, which is the sector leader, as well as its sister departments such as Environmental Affairs, Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs, Minerals and Energy, Agriculture and Fisheries, Basic Education and Higher Learning Institutions, etc.

will be constructed concurrently with the completion of the dam.

This will deliver water to a total of three million Limpopo residents for domestic purposes. During this financial year, government will commission the construction of a water conveyance system from the Vaal Dam to Secunda to augment the water supply to Eskom power stations and Sasol.

This comprises abstraction works, storage reservoir, high lift pump station, and a 121 km pipeline. In addition to the infrastructure development that is currently under way, government is also finalising its planning and preparing for the construction of other dams and related infrastructure.

This includes the completion of a water treatment works and bulk distribution system from Nandoni Dam in Limpopo, the construction of a pipeline from the Flag Boshielo Dam to Mokopane and nearby communities, the completion of feasibility studies and designs of the Umzinvubu and Foxwood Dams in Eastern Cape, the construction of the bulk distribution pipelines and reticulation networks from the Jozini Dam in KZN as well as the Groot Letaba Augmentation Project, consisting of the raising of the Tzaneen Dam, the finalisation of the plans of the construction of the N’wamitwa Dam and the associated water treatment plants and bulk distribution pipelines.

HE TRANS-CALEDON Tunnel Authority has procured funding to implement the Mokolo and Crocodile River West water augmentation project phases one and two, with a total cost of about R2 billion, in order to deliver water to Eskom’s new Medupi power station and other industries in the area as well as domestic water to the Lephalale Local Municipality.

About 75% of this phase will be funded by off-budget sources and water delivery is expected in 2014.

In KwaZulu-Natal on the Mooi River near Rosetta, government has already awarded a R2.2 billion contract to construct the 42 m-high Spring Grove Dam, which will have a storage capacity of 142 million m3.

Government will also be spending R91.2 million in this financial year to raise the Hazelmere Dam, in order to augment the water supply to Umgeni Water for treatment and supply purposes to the KwaZulu-Natal North Coast in the areas of Mdloti to Thukela.

The estimated cost for completing the construction of the De Hoop Dam which began in 2007 is approximately R3.1 billion. Of this amount, R2.1 billion has been spent up to the 2010/11 financial year, and R926 million will be spent over the next three years to complete the dam. The distribution network

Government is also well advanced with negotiations for a joint agreement with the government of Lesotho for the implementation of the second phase of the Lesotho Highlands Water Project, which will augment the Vaal River system that supplies water to Gauteng and the surrounding areas. This is scheduled for completion in 2020.

The South African Water Research Commission Your knowledge resource for water-related issues The Water Research Commission (WRC) actively contributes to South Africa’s water knowledge base by funding fundamental water research, growing scientific capacity and disseminating knowledge to important stakeholders through various formats.

WRC-funded projects directly address the country’s water challenges by investigating new technologies and methods to enhance water and sanitation supply, supporting policy and legislation, and providing much-needed guidance to implementers. The organisation funds research touching all aspects of the water cycle, including water resource management, aquatic ecosystems, water use and waste management, and the use of water in agriculture. The WRC also looks at aspects like climate change that may affect our water resources in the future.

The WRC provides free access to over 4 000 resource material items which could assist local government in solving water-related challenges.

Typical examples of resource material: • Development of a generic water safety plan for small community water supply (Report No TT 415/09) • A simple guide to the chemistry, selection and use of chemicals for water and wastewater treatment (Report No TT 405/09) • Guideline for the implementation of sanitation and hygiene education programmes in informal settlements (Report No TT 365/08) • A desalination guide for South African municipal engineers (Report No TT 266/06) • Basic sanitation services in South Africa (Report No TT 414/09)

How to access these documents To access these and other WRC knowledge products:

• Visit the website at www.wrc.org.za to download documents • Contact Publications at Tel: (012) 330-0340; Fax (012) 331-2565; or E-mail: orders@wrc.org.za to order hard copies

WATER, ENVIRONMENT AND SOLID WASTE

IWMSA outlook for waste industry The waste industry finds itself facing a number of challenges with respect to the new Waste Act (No. 59 of 2008) which came into effect in mid-2009.

O

N AVERAGE, EACH South African generates about 550 kg of waste per year. Conservatively, this equates to 26.4 million tonnes of rubbish that needs to be disposed of. In terms of the Waste Act, a National Waste Management Strategy (NWMS) must be implemented within two years. The preparation of the NWMS is far advanced and was finalised at the end of 2010. This will have serious consequences for the industry in terms of compliance requirements and heavy penalties that can be imposed. It also raises the question of whether the industry, including local government, has the necessary capacity to implement the proposed NWMS.

In addition to the challenges posed by the Waste Act, further challenges exist in terms of the lack of service delivery in many of our municipalities relating to waste collection and disposal. Government intervention is urgently required to remedy the situation if the objectives of the Waste Act and NWMS are to be achieved. This serious situation has also been recognised by the South African Local Government Association (SALGA), which, together with the IWMSA, is planning a programme of training courses to assist municipalities to develop the necessary capacity to implement and manage the new NWMS and provide the required service delivery in respect of waste management.

IWMSA The Institute of Waste Management of Southern Africa (IWMSA) is a multidisciplinary, non-profit association committed to supporting professional waste management practices.

It comprises voluntary members who promote environmentally acceptable, cost-effective and appropriate waste management practices.

The institute strives towards the protection of the environment and people of Southern Africa from the adverse effects of poor waste management, by supporting sustainable best practical environmental options.

ADVERTORIAL

Fiberpipe purchases Amitech South Africa ON 1 APRIL 2011 Fiberpipe purchased the business of Amitech South Africa as a going concern. This followed the local management team concluding a management buyout from Saudi Arabia-based holding group Amiantit. The management structure will in future include a BEE empowerment scheme, with its employees being given a percentage in the business and a say in the running of it through a representative member on the board of directors. Fiberpipe’s aim remains to provide customers with pipe solutions for potable, raw, sea-, industrial, waste-, sewer and bulk water applications.

Fiberpipe is the only sub-Saharan glass-fibre-reinforced pipe (GRP) manufacturer. Its products are manufactured in accordance with internationally accepted standards and meet the requirements of ISO9001:2000 SABS specifications. The company’s combination of manufacturing and sales engineering services enables it to deliver value-added services based on customer requirements.

Through partnerships it finds workable solutions that are aimed at achieving the maximum use of pipe systems where operational effectiveness is sought, while not compromising on quality.

Fiberpipe has its own quality control department to ensure:

• All products are produced in accordance with specified requirements.

• There is continual improvement of product quality and services that are provided.

In addition to products of high quality, Fiberpipe assists with advisory services for the choice of material and calculations for projects. Additional assistance in the form of on-site technical field support is provided during installation to ensure that correct procedures are followed for optimal use of the products. This assistance and installation training is provided free of charge to the client within South Africa. Furthermore, Fiberpipe provides maintenance training should it be required, to ensure that the full lifespan of the product is achieved.

FLOWTITE FLOWTITE™ is Fiberpipe’s leading product for water, sewage and industrial applications. The GRP systems are a cost-effective piping solution: the pipes are corrosion free and have a proven resistance to acidic environments in water and sewage systems.

They are lightweight and therefore easy to handle. FLOWTITE™ pipes and fittings are suited to several applications, such as: • potable water transfer • fire fighting • seawater and desalinated water

• power plants • chemical and industrial wastes • sewer and irrigation.

The product can be found in siphon lines, seawater outfalls, bridge dewatering and desalination projects, or as protection line for cables. Standard and special fabricated fittings, such as bends, tees and reducers, are available.

Technical information

Diameters: DN 300 to 1 800 mm Pressure classes: PN 1-6-10-16-25-32 Stiffness: SN 2 500, 5 000, 10 000 Length: Standard length: 12 m Large diameters are available on request.

VECTUS The VECTUS pipe system is manufactured from glass-fibre-reinforced polyester and vinylester. The production method is a discontinuous double helix reciprocal filament winding process that gives the pipes a balanced combination of axial and hoop mechanical properties. The VECTUS pipe systems are corrosion free, lightweight and a well-documented product with solid references worldwide. In addition to the civil and industrial markets the pipe systems are used in the oil and gas, shipbuilding and offshore industries. Within the industrial market the pipe system is used widely as a cost-effective solution owing to biaxial pipe systems with well-locked joint solutions for pipes and fittings.

These locked-joint systems are also successfully used in municipal water, cooling water and pressure sewerage systems in combination with FLOWTITE™ pipes to avoid thrust blocks. The VECTUS pipe system includes a complete range of standardised specialised fittings.

CONSULTING ENGINEERING

CESA industry overview

CONSULTING ENGINEERING

The way forward As part of its Walk the Talk campaign, CESA has decided to play an active role in growing the local economy, which it believes is an absolute imperative for South Africa.

T

HIS IS A BIG YEAR for Consulting Engineers South Africa (CESA) as its main focus will be on partnering for growth. The decline in construction activity that commenced in 2009 continued well into 2010. Graph 1 demonstrates this trend very clearly.

A number of consulting firms had to reduce staff levels, particularly contract staff. Salary revisions and staff bonuses in the consulting industry have been moderate. According to the Biannual Economic and Capacity Survey conducted by CESA among its members, staff utilisation levels have dropped from almost 100% to 80%. Tender pricing among consultants has become highly competitive, to the extent that we have probably gone back to pre-2008 levels. These pricing regimes are not sustainable, and in CESA’s opinion, serve as a measure to prevent, or rather delay, retrenchments in the hope that infrastructure expenditure will recover soon.

In order to diversify, an increasing number of South African consulting engineers are aiming their sights towards the north of the border and into Africa and elsewhere. However, with increased competition from international consultants and the strengthening of the rand, competition in Africa is fierce. It was inevitable that international consultants, from both the

east and west, arrived in South Africa on reconnaissance visits looking for projects and joint venture partners.

In the 2010 budget, the government announced a R809 billion allocation for infrastructure, which was supposed to be spent over three years. Very little of this spend seems to have materialised. According to finance minister Pravin Gordhan, billions have not been spent by the public sector. Everyone within the industry is aware that there is a great need to implement new and maintain existing infrastructure. The reason for under-spending

can be ascribed to the inability of public sector officials to procure the necessary professional or contracting services as a result of not having the capacity or owing to the utilisation of inappropriate procurement models.

Early in 2010, CESA prepared a report on the state of water and transportation infrastructure that provided us with a realistic condition statement. Major findings were as follows: Water and sanitation: • Access to water and sanitation has increased significantly.

www.propercon.co.za Proper ConsulƟng Engineers strives to be a strong and diverse organisaƟon, which remains commiƩed to ongoing empowerment and takes great pride in its representaƟve workforce. Our Closed CorporaƟon is 30% owned by a Historically Disadvantaged Individual (HDI), Mr Paul Mei who is an acƟve managing member.

As a Įrm, we endeavour to always provide for the needs of our clients. We are well posiƟoned to provide the necessary experƟse and personal services to our clients, including the Ɵmeous implementaƟon of projects.

CONSULTING ENGINEERING • There is project implementation incapacity, particularly at the sub-national level. • Only 10% of municipalities function satisfactorily. • Water quality is seriously compromised. • Acid mine drainage in previously mined areas poses a serious threat to health.

Roads and transportation: • Between 1998 and 2000: * good roads decreased from 75% to 30% * poor roads increased from 5% to 30%. • Provincial and municipal roads are poorly maintained (pothole problem).

The proper procurement of and the tendering for consulting services are major concerns in South Africa. In conjunction with the Construction Industry Development Board

using procurement legislation and the cidb Standards for Uniformity as a basis for this.

The cidb remains ‘the court of last resort’ and will follow up on issues where CESA is unsuccessful.

Industry issues For at least the past six years the built environment fraternity has invested an enormous amount of time and energy into the development of the Construction Industry Charter and Scorecard. It is consequently extremely disappointing that as far as CESA is aware, SANRAL is the only client that subscribes to it for procurement purposes. Despite numerous promises the BBBEE and PPPFA legislation is still not linked and most clients follow their own set of independent and divergent rules to evaluate preferencing. This not only causes a

During May 2010, Minister Shiceka announced the new Municipal Systems Amendment Bill (cidb), CESA developed a series of guidelines for clients and consultants, entitled the Procurement Guidelines for Consulting Engineering Services.

CESA signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the cidb, granting it the authority to approach numerous clients who do not follow best practice, or participate in illegal procurement practices. The MOU extends the capacity of the cidb, enabling CESA to challenge these procurement ‘wobbles’ under sanction from the cidb via a mandatory letter of authorisation. CESA will initiate the first challenge with the client entity

lot of additional work when submitting tenders, but also creates confusion in the industry. It is our understanding that even the BBBEE legislation may yet be revised more than 15 years after our new democracy was begun – and this when it has not even been effectively implemented yet owing to conflicting legislation.

During May 2010, Minister Shiceka announced the new Municipal Systems Amendment Bill, which aims to redress crucial problems hampering service delivery, such as the deployment and appointment of inappropriately qualified staff in key positions. This bill has since been enacted. . In 2010 CESA

identified service delivery in the public sector in general, and in the municipal sphere specifically, as a ‘burning bridge’. Despite the identification and acknowledgement of the numerous deficiencies and the well-known turnaround strategy document produced by COGTA, service delivery still appears to be a major issue in numerous municipalities and departments.

To date initiatives like the Special Purpose Vehicle and Adopt-a-Town mooted by COGTA appear not to have come to fruition. As highlighted by CESA in 2010, the numerous well-intended ad hoc and uncoordinated interventions at the municipal level have had very limited impact and lacked continuity.

This burning bridge not only affects the daily lives of many citizens, but deprives many unemployed citizens of much-needed jobs. The reported R12 billion of unspent budget by the public sector equates to a ‘loss’ of 100 000 jobs, a situation that cannot be tolerated in a country with extremely high unemployment and a below-average growth rate. Responses to the lack of delivery have surfaced from various sectors in society: • Grass roots: * Protests: – 2008: 27 – 2009: 109 – 2010: 88 (eight months only). * Surveys confirm a lack of trust in local authorities to deliver. • Government: * “Put a stop to political appointmentsâ€? – Minister Shiceka, October 2010. * “Backlog in infrastructure is R495 billionâ€?– Minister Shiceka, April 2010.

CONSULTING ENGINEERING • Informed citizens (Dinokeng Group): * “We failed to understand how to run a modern democracy”. * “Leadership is self-interested”. * “Weak state with declining capacity”.

As CESA has repeatedly stated during 2010, the key overriding issue in the public sector is the lack of skills and technical human resources. The number of technical professionals in the government has shrunk from 5 500 to less than 1 800 over the past 10 years. The cidb has now decided to launch a pilot project whereby performance reporting on consultants will be included with the roster to add a level of ‘value’.

CESA has been promoting and actively supporting the establishment of a central register of built environment professionals by the cidb.

It was envisaged that a pilot register would see the light during 2010. However, owing to concerns about the value that a mere listing of consultants would add, the cidb decided not to take this process any further. The primary benefit of such a register would be that ‘flyby-night’, inappropriately qualified consulting engineers could be excluded from the register and public sector clients would not be permitted to appoint consulting engineers who are not on this roster.

The Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA)-led Identification of Work (IoW) process in which CESA participates has been slow but remains on track and it appears that the differences between ECSA and the Council for the Built Environment (CBE) have been resolved, so it is likely that the IoW process will be finalised during the current year. It is important that this is done to protect public safety by ensuring that only appropriately qualified professionals will be permitted to carry out specific engineering functions. Some good news is that the CETA has been placed under administration and as a consequence may now at last respond to the needs of built environment professionals in the construction industry.

measured in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) or market exchange rates (MER).)

• Although South Africa currently ranks as the 20th largest economy in the world, it does not feature in the top 20 by 2050 owing to its expected lower growth rate than that of the other emerging markets.

• These scenarios have significance for our consulting and construction industry, namely: – future alliance partners (east versus west) – increased global competition from the G7 nations owing to lower economic activity – the ability to maintain adequate growth to fund expansion projects and create employment.

The cautiously optimistic outlook for our local industry in 2011 has been tempered by the uncertainty of the coming municipal elections.

During previous elections, impact on the industry has generally been negative. Hopefully with the election behind us we can look forward to an acceleration of service delivery and the appointment of professional cadre of officialdom able to enhance performance.

Economic growth path The government is more than aware of the imperative to grow the economy and increase employment to ensure a sustainable future.

Investment in economic infrastructure occurs in expectation of demand or in reaction to demand for capacity. When this happens, it has the following three effects: 1. an initial growth in demand for people, equipment and materials on the project, which lasts as long as it takes to create the asset 2. a demand on resources over the life span of the project to maintain the asset 3. a productivity impact in the overall economy, either producing more or producing it more

efficiently owing to more efficient infrastructure (or simply the availability of capacity such as harbour capacity and electricity).

While an asset is being created, the employment of more people and the demand for equipment, plant and materials has an effect on growth owing to secondary demand coming from more disposable income from the employed and demand for equipment and materials to deliver the project. This is the multiplier or accelerator principle: a project has employment/demand multipliers, which in itself causes growth to increase. The number of jobs directly created per R1 million spent in the construction sector per annum is around seven. This is the third highest of all sectors, surpassed only by the agriculture and mining sectors. In some construction activities, employment-intensive practices can, without necessarily sacrificing quality or paying a cost premium, increase the quantum of work generated per R1 million spent and provide temporary job opportunities to unskilled workers. This aspect of construction feeds into the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). The government is a major client in the construction sector and therefore has the ability to make a significant impact on employment creation through investment in infrastructure.

The new growth plan sets the ambitious target of delivering 30 000 engineers per annum by 2014.This requires comment: • At present, approximately 2 500 engineers graduate annually from local universities.

Assuming that graduate technicians and technologists are included in the minister’s target, the annual figure is around 6 000.

• Approximately 60% of first-year entrants do not graduate. If the pass rate could

NEEDS AND NUMBERS

Global trends Recent in-depth international research conducted by PriceWaterhouse Coopers painted a picture of the world in 2050. It is important for all South African businesses, as well as CESA and its members, to note the following: • The largest emerging economies (E7) of the world are expected to show a rapid convergence with the largest great economies (G7) and will overtake them in size between 2020 and 2030. (However, this depends on whether the gross domestic product (GDP) is

SERVICE DELIVERY FRAMEWORK be increased to, say, 80% by raising the quality and numbers of educators, the number of annual graduates could be upped to 12 000.

• At present, young graduates battle to find employment.

CESA’s view is that the strongest ‘pulling’ power to increase the number of engineers has historically been investment in infrastructure from government and the private sector. Refer to the graph from Needs and Numbers.

CESA’s view is therefore that if the economy grows and a sustainable programme of infrastructure spend is maintained, technical positions are created in technical public sector departments and qualified engineers are employed in technical positions in the government, the private sector will respond by sponsoring and training engineering students and graduates will be able to find suitable career opportunities. Otherwise, if the infrastructure spend by the public and private sector does not increase adequately, South Africa will be producing a surplus of engineers (that is, if students can be convinced to study engineering in an underperforming market).

Service delivery framework In terms of a framework or roadmap for the way forward, we consider the following to be fundamental: 1. Professionalise the public service, remove political deployees from technical positions for which they are not qualified and employ skilled officials who can develop careers in the public service. This will take time.

2. Public authorities (the client) cannot abdicate their responsibility for proper infrastructure planning. For example, unless coordination and joint planning between development planners and the suppliers of bulk infrastructure (water, sewerage, roads and electricity) is greatly enhanced in 2011, the development of human settlements will not happen, potentially causing further serious social instability. The National Planning Commission will hopefully provide a broad national vision and guideline. Proper capital project planning must be carried out by all departments, as was done for the Soccer World Cup. Until the appropriate inhouse skills have been developed, planning experts will have to be contracted into the various departments to assist.

3. It is very important for all clients to realise that the biggest impact on cost, which is innovation, happens in the early part of projects.

4. Use must be made of the recently developed cidb guidelines, based on local and international experience, to select appropriate construction procurement strategies. Much of the service delivery failure can be ascribed to the notion of sticking to traditional , often inappropriate, ‘one sizefits-all’ construction procurement models that often lead to a plethora of client/ consultant/contractor relationships that have to be managed by overburdened and often inexperienced staff. In determining the appropriate model, it is necessary to analyse project work flows carefully.

Two procurement models representing the outside limits of available options are available, with various options existing in between. In South Africa, a pilot project in eThekwini demonstrated how infrastructure could be delivered at scale without compromising on the delivery of social and economic deliverables and indicated that a fresh approach to delivery was required. Framework contracts with a limited number of ‘supply chain’ contractors were entered into to provide infrastructure with a number of deliverables relating to poverty relief, enterprise development and training over a three-year period.

This EPWP award-winning pilot project not only delivered infrastructure at scale but also provides significant temporary employment opportunities to the unemployed. It facilitates the growth and development of small local contractors, permits a wide range of training to take place and requires only one eThekwini staff member to oversee its implementation.

5. The government and the private sector should actively partner in a mutually trusting relationship throughout the project life cycle. A good example is SANRAL, where a competent core of approximately 170 officials effectively manages annual infrastructure budgets of between R10 billion and R20 billion.

The recent successes of the World Cup demonstrate that the engineering fraternity in South Africa can meet these challenges successfully. Awareness needs to be created in improving the state of South Africa’s infrastructure, which is necessary to enhance economic growth and development, create employment and alleviate poverty.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 73

CONSULTING ENGINEERING

The way forward As part of its Walk the Talk campaign, CESA has decided to play an active role in growing the local economy, which it believes is an absolute imperative for South Africa.

T

HIS IS A BIG YEAR for Consulting Engineers South Africa (CESA) as its main focus will be on partnering for growth. The decline in construction activity that commenced in 2009 continued well into 2010. Graph 1 demonstrates this trend very clearly.

A number of consulting firms had to reduce staff levels, particularly contract staff. Salary revisions and staff bonuses in the consulting industry have been moderate. According to the Biannual Economic and Capacity Survey conducted by CESA among its members, staff utilisation levels have dropped from almost 100% to 80%. Tender pricing among consultants has become highly competitive, to the extent that we have probably gone back to pre-2008 levels. These pricing regimes are not sustainable, and in CESA’s opinion, serve as a measure to prevent, or rather delay, retrenchments in the hope that infrastructure expenditure will recover soon.

In order to diversify, an increasing number of South African consulting engineers are aiming their sights towards the north of the border and into Africa and elsewhere. However, with increased competition from international consultants and the strengthening of the rand, competition in Africa is fierce. It was inevitable that international consultants, from both the

east and west, arrived in South Africa on reconnaissance visits looking for projects and joint venture partners.

In the 2010 budget, the government announced a R809 billion allocation for infrastructure, which was supposed to be spent over three years. Very little of this spend seems to have materialised. According to finance minister Pravin Gordhan, billions have not been spent by the public sector. Everyone within the industry is aware that there is a great need to implement new and maintain existing infrastructure. The reason for under-spending

can be ascribed to the inability of public sector officials to procure the necessary professional or contracting services as a result of not having the capacity or owing to the utilisation of inappropriate procurement models.

Early in 2010, CESA prepared a report on the state of water and transportation infrastructure that provided us with a realistic condition statement. Major findings were as follows: Water and sanitation: • Access to water and sanitation has increased significantly.

CONSULTING ENGINEERING • There is project implementation incapacity, particularly at the sub-national level. • Only 10% of municipalities function satisfactorily. • Water quality is seriously compromised. • Acid mine drainage in previously mined areas poses a serious threat to health.

Roads and transportation: • Between 1998 and 2000: * good roads decreased from 75% to 30% * poor roads increased from 5% to 30%. • Provincial and municipal roads are poorly maintained (pothole problem).

The proper procurement of and the tendering for consulting services are major concerns in South Africa. In conjunction with the Construction Industry Development Board

using procurement legislation and the cidb Standards for Uniformity as a basis for this.

The cidb remains ‘the court of last resort’ and will follow up on issues where CESA is unsuccessful.

Industry issues For at least the past six years the built environment fraternity has invested an enormous amount of time and energy into the development of the Construction Industry Charter and Scorecard. It is consequently extremely disappointing that as far as CESA is aware, SANRAL is the only client that subscribes to it for procurement purposes. Despite numerous promises the BBBEE and PPPFA legislation is still not linked and most clients follow their own set of independent and divergent rules to evaluate preferencing. This not only causes a

During May 2010, Minister Shiceka announced the new Municipal Systems Amendment Bill (cidb), CESA developed a series of guidelines for clients and consultants, entitled the Procurement Guidelines for Consulting Engineering Services.

CESA signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the cidb, granting it the authority to approach numerous clients who do not follow best practice, or participate in illegal procurement practices. The MOU extends the capacity of the cidb, enabling CESA to challenge these procurement ‘wobbles’ under sanction from the cidb via a mandatory letter of authorisation. CESA will initiate the first challenge with the client entity

lot of additional work when submitting tenders, but also creates confusion in the industry. It is our understanding that even the BBBEE legislation may yet be revised more than 15 years after our new democracy was begun – and this when it has not even been effectively implemented yet owing to conflicting legislation.

During May 2010, Minister Shiceka announced the new Municipal Systems Amendment Bill, which aims to redress crucial problems hampering service delivery, such as the deployment and appointment of inappropriately qualified staff in key positions. This bill has since been enacted. . In 2010 CESA

identified service delivery in the public sector in general, and in the municipal sphere specifically, as a ‘burning bridge’. Despite the identification and acknowledgement of the numerous deficiencies and the well-known turnaround strategy document produced by COGTA, service delivery still appears to be a major issue in numerous municipalities and departments.

To date initiatives like the Special Purpose Vehicle and Adopt-a-Town mooted by COGTA appear not to have come to fruition. As highlighted by CESA in 2010, the numerous well-intended ad hoc and uncoordinated interventions at the municipal level have had very limited impact and lacked continuity.

This burning bridge not only affects the daily lives of many citizens, but deprives many unemployed citizens of much-needed jobs. The reported R12 billion of unspent budget by the public sector equates to a ‘loss’ of 100 000 jobs, a situation that cannot be tolerated in a country with extremely high unemployment and a below-average growth rate. Responses to the lack of delivery have surfaced from various sectors in society: • Grass roots: * Protests: – 2008: 27 – 2009: 109 – 2010: 88 (eight months only). * Surveys confirm a lack of trust in local authorities to deliver. • Government: * “Put a stop to political appointmentsâ€? – Minister Shiceka, October 2010. * “Backlog in infrastructure is R495 billionâ€?– Minister Shiceka, April 2010.

CONSULTING ENGINEERING • Informed citizens (Dinokeng Group): * “We failed to understand how to run a modern democracy”. * “Leadership is self-interested”. * “Weak state with declining capacity”.

As CESA has repeatedly stated during 2010, the key overriding issue in the public sector is the lack of skills and technical human resources. The number of technical professionals in the government has shrunk from 5 500 to less than 1 800 over the past 10 years. The cidb has now decided to launch a pilot project whereby performance reporting on consultants will be included with the roster to add a level of ‘value’.

CESA has been promoting and actively supporting the establishment of a central register of built environment professionals by the cidb.

It was envisaged that a pilot register would see the light during 2010. However, owing to concerns about the value that a mere listing of consultants would add, the cidb decided not to take this process any further. The primary benefit of such a register would be that ‘flyby-night’, inappropriately qualified consulting engineers could be excluded from the register and public sector clients would not be permitted to appoint consulting engineers who are not on this roster.

The Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA)-led Identification of Work (IoW) process in which CESA participates has been slow but remains on track and it appears that the differences between ECSA and the Council for the Built Environment (CBE) have been resolved, so it is likely that the IoW process will be finalised during the current year. It is important that this is done to protect public safety by ensuring that only appropriately qualified professionals will be permitted to carry out specific engineering functions. Some good news is that the CETA has been placed under administration and as a consequence may now at last respond to the needs of built environment professionals in the construction industry.

measured in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP) or market exchange rates (MER).)

• Although South Africa currently ranks as the 20th largest economy in the world, it does not feature in the top 20 by 2050 owing to its expected lower growth rate than that of the other emerging markets.

• These scenarios have significance for our consulting and construction industry, namely: – future alliance partners (east versus west) – increased global competition from the G7 nations owing to lower economic activity – the ability to maintain adequate growth to fund expansion projects and create employment.

The cautiously optimistic outlook for our local industry in 2011 has been tempered by the uncertainty of the coming municipal elections.

During previous elections, impact on the industry has generally been negative. Hopefully with the election behind us we can look forward to an acceleration of service delivery and the appointment of professional cadre of officialdom able to enhance performance.

Economic growth path The government is more than aware of the imperative to grow the economy and increase employment to ensure a sustainable future.

Investment in economic infrastructure occurs in expectation of demand or in reaction to demand for capacity. When this happens, it has the following three effects: 1. an initial growth in demand for people, equipment and materials on the project, which lasts as long as it takes to create the asset 2. a demand on resources over the life span of the project to maintain the asset 3. a productivity impact in the overall economy, either producing more or producing it more

efficiently owing to more efficient infrastructure (or simply the availability of capacity such as harbour capacity and electricity).

While an asset is being created, the employment of more people and the demand for equipment, plant and materials has an effect on growth owing to secondary demand coming from more disposable income from the employed and demand for equipment and materials to deliver the project. This is the multiplier or accelerator principle: a project has employment/demand multipliers, which in itself causes growth to increase. The number of jobs directly created per R1 million spent in the construction sector per annum is around seven. This is the third highest of all sectors, surpassed only by the agriculture and mining sectors. In some construction activities, employment-intensive practices can, without necessarily sacrificing quality or paying a cost premium, increase the quantum of work generated per R1 million spent and provide temporary job opportunities to unskilled workers. This aspect of construction feeds into the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). The government is a major client in the construction sector and therefore has the ability to make a significant impact on employment creation through investment in infrastructure.

The new growth plan sets the ambitious target of delivering 30 000 engineers per annum by 2014.This requires comment: • At present, approximately 2 500 engineers graduate annually from local universities.

Assuming that graduate technicians and technologists are included in the minister’s target, the annual figure is around 6 000.

• Approximately 60% of first-year entrants do not graduate. If the pass rate could

NEEDS AND NUMBERS

Global trends Recent in-depth international research conducted by PriceWaterhouse Coopers painted a picture of the world in 2050. It is important for all South African businesses, as well as CESA and its members, to note the following: • The largest emerging economies (E7) of the world are expected to show a rapid convergence with the largest great economies (G7) and will overtake them in size between 2020 and 2030. (However, this depends on whether the gross domestic product (GDP) is

SERVICE DELIVERY FRAMEWORK be increased to, say, 80% by raising the quality and numbers of educators, the number of annual graduates could be upped to 12 000.

• At present, young graduates battle to find employment.

CESA’s view is that the strongest ‘pulling’ power to increase the number of engineers has historically been investment in infrastructure from government and the private sector. Refer to the graph from Needs and Numbers.

CESA’s view is therefore that if the economy grows and a sustainable programme of infrastructure spend is maintained, technical positions are created in technical public sector departments and qualified engineers are employed in technical positions in the government, the private sector will respond by sponsoring and training engineering students and graduates will be able to find suitable career opportunities. Otherwise, if the infrastructure spend by the public and private sector does not increase adequately, South Africa will be producing a surplus of engineers (that is, if students can be convinced to study engineering in an underperforming market).

Service delivery framework In terms of a framework or roadmap for the way forward, we consider the following to be fundamental: 1. Professionalise the public service, remove political deployees from technical positions for which they are not qualified and employ skilled officials who can develop careers in the public service. This will take time.

2. Public authorities (the client) cannot abdicate their responsibility for proper infrastructure planning. For example, unless coordination and joint planning between development planners and the suppliers of bulk infrastructure (water, sewerage, roads and electricity) is greatly enhanced in 2011, the development of human settlements will not happen, potentially causing further serious social instability. The National Planning Commission will hopefully provide a broad national vision and guideline. Proper capital project planning must be carried out by all departments, as was done for the Soccer World Cup. Until the appropriate inhouse skills have been developed, planning experts will have to be contracted into the various departments to assist.

3. It is very important for all clients to realise that the biggest impact on cost, which is innovation, happens in the early part of projects.

4. Use must be made of the recently developed cidb guidelines, based on local and international experience, to select appropriate construction procurement strategies. Much of the service delivery failure can be ascribed to the notion of sticking to traditional , often inappropriate, ‘one sizefits-all’ construction procurement models that often lead to a plethora of client/ consultant/contractor relationships that have to be managed by overburdened and often inexperienced staff. In determining the appropriate model, it is necessary to analyse project work flows carefully.

Two procurement models representing the outside limits of available options are available, with various options existing in between. In South Africa, a pilot project in eThekwini demonstrated how infrastructure could be delivered at scale without compromising on the delivery of social and economic deliverables and indicated that a fresh approach to delivery was required. Framework contracts with a limited number of ‘supply chain’ contractors were entered into to provide infrastructure with a number of deliverables relating to poverty relief, enterprise development and training over a three-year period.

This EPWP award-winning pilot project not only delivered infrastructure at scale but also provides significant temporary employment opportunities to the unemployed. It facilitates the growth and development of small local contractors, permits a wide range of training to take place and requires only one eThekwini staff member to oversee its implementation.

5. The government and the private sector should actively partner in a mutually trusting relationship throughout the project life cycle. A good example is SANRAL, where a competent core of approximately 170 officials effectively manages annual infrastructure budgets of between R10 billion and R20 billion.

The recent successes of the World Cup demonstrate that the engineering fraternity in South Africa can meet these challenges successfully. Awareness needs to be created in improving the state of South Africa’s infrastructure, which is necessary to enhance economic growth and development, create employment and alleviate poverty.

CIVIL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION

South African Federation of Civil Engineering Contractors The main message regarding the international and domestic economy is one of uncertainty about events and the impact due to the changing relationships among them. The added uncertainty of the lack institutional capacity to deliver infrastructure is aggravating the situation for the construction sector. By Henk Langenhoven, SAFCEC economist

G

ROSS DOMESTIC production (annualised) contracted by 1.7% during 2009, which concealed the fact that a recovery already started by the second quarter of 2009. The recovery continued with GDP growth of 2.8% for calendar year 2010. We concur with the South African Reserve Bank forecasts of 3.4% real growth

for 2011 and 3.6% for 2012. Gross domestic expenditure (GDE) registered a contraction of 1.7% in 2009 but recovered during 2010 to an estimated 4.4% growth rate for the year, mainly fuelled by private consumption expenditure.

Gross fixed capital formation declined for nearly a year and a half, -2.2% in 2008/09 and likely 3.6% lower still in 2010. The decline

in private sector outlays (two thirds of the total) softened from -9% in 2008/09 to an estimated -4,3% (2009/10). Public corporations’ investment grew by 26% in 2009, but slowed down during 2010 to 3.7%. General (national, provincial and local) government investment declined during 2009 (-4%) and 2010 (-11%).

CIVIL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION data has shown no direction for two years now; STATSSA reports ominously that “construction contributed 0.0 of a percentage point (to the SA economy) for five consecutive quarters”.

In summary therefore, the current economic upswing is consumption driven, exports starved and investment ‘shell-shocked’.

However, the trends in civil engineering show a definitive turning point. The confidence index clearly showed this at the end of 2009.

Compared to one year ago, the index is now nearly 23% higher, and if a six-month comparison is made the improvement is 54% (end of 2010). The decline in the cumulative number of tender invitations also seemed to have reached a lower point. The second half of 2010 was around 6% better than the first half and other evidence shows strong recovery. The decline in the value of contracts awarded was arrested in the third quarter of 2010, with the second half recording a 33% improvement against an almost similar decline during the first half. The improvements in the above leading indicators have had little impact on turnover as yet (2010 -36% on 2009), but the last six months show some bottoming out of the negative trend. The

78 - LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011

estimated annual employment figures show horrendous declines – nearly 40% on 2009 or between 30 000 and 50 000 people! We expect slow growth for the industry during 2011 with some acceleration during 2012.

General economy “The future is not what it used to be” was the exasperated statement by a frustrated economist regarding the state of his discipline and the ‘patient’ it was supposed to explain ... as Winston Churchill once said of a certain country, it ‘... is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma”. This encapsulates two main concerns; uncertainty in the domestic and international economic environment and the enigma around lack of delivery of construction fixed investment.

The sources of growth in GDE (expenditure) are either or a combination of consumption by consumers, consumption by government, investment spending by the public and private sector and exports.

Traditionally, the first signs of expansion came from exports presupposing a benign or growing international economy. The impact of

international economic trends has been mixed; higher commodity export prices and a flood of incoming capital strengthened the rand and improved household purchasing power. But, export earnings are subdued due to said strong rand and supply price shocks are becoming a threat, in particular energy (oil), metals (steel, copper) and food.

Consumer spending represents 60% of GDE. This grew by 3.9% by in 2010 and was forecasted to continue doing so during 2011 (4.2%) and 2012 (4.7%). High debt and unemployment levels and persistent skills shortages are hampering factors though.

Government consumption expenditure on goods and services kept on growing during 2009 (4.8%) but slowed down as well during 2010, ironically due to strikes (‘no work no pay’) and accompanying lower salary bill.

Investment spending has been ‘shell shocked’ to say the least. Overall gross fixed capital formation declined for nearly a year and a half (-2.2%, 2008/09) and will probably end 3.6% lower still in 2010. The decline in private sector outlays (two-thirds of total) softened from -9% (2008/09) to an estimated 4.3% (2009/10).

The latter trend could not be stemmed by public corporations investment growing by 26% in 2009, but slowing down during 2010 to 3.7%. General (national, provincial and local) government investment declined during 2009 (4%) and 2010 (11%).

Intensive analysis of the economic data shows that the production side of the economy is performing under its potential, the so-called ‘negative output gap’. The figures in table 1 show that overall expenditure is growing much faster (4.4% in 2010) than production (only 2.7%), i.e. excess production capacity exists. Econometric models show that this gap may be as high as 4% of GDP. When idle capacity exists, investment is subdued. When one focuses on capital formation, the profusion of complexities reveals itself.

Gross fixed capital formation Gross fixed capital formation represents 18.4% of GDE. The total construction portion (of GFCF) is 54.3%. South African Reserve Bank construction data shows substantial downward revisions for 2009 and 2010. Growth estimates are shown in table 2 below. A calendar year comparison (extreme right column), year-on-year nine month comparison (fourth column), half- year comparison (third column) and latest quarter on previous quarter (second column) all confirm this trend.

Source: SARB Quarterly Bulletin; Estimates, annualised figures Including structural, electrical and mechanical engineering Only one conclusion can be drawn from the data: Construction ‘moved sideways’ during the whole of 2010. The fact that the economy is ‘comfortably out of recession’ (according to STATSSA) makes these figures more scary, because lack of investment in already fully utilised infrastructure will cause bottlenecks to arise again, soon (read harbours, electricity, etc.).

The position of the civil engineering industry The indicators below reflect actual figures compiled for end Q4 2010.

The overall feeling is that an improvement in the confidence levels (a

The estimated annual employment figures show the declines we feared, nearly 40% on 2009. Hopefully this trend will also start to reverse during 2011.

one to two year leading indicator), starting at the end of 2009, began to filter through the rest of the indicators. This happened despite the fact that it seemed as if the confidence indicator ‘faltered slightly’ by moving sideways after the first strong recovery.

Main indicators (summarised in table 3).

The patterns evident from the industry confidence index clearly show the turning point at end 2009. Compared to one year ago, the index is now nearly 23% higher, and if the sixmonth comparison is made, the improvement is 54% (end of 2010).

The decline in the cumulative number of tender invitations also seemed to have reached

a lower point. Whereas the 12-month comparisons are still slightly negative, the last six months of 2010 was +/-6% better than the previous six months.

The decline in the value of contracts awarded also seemed to have been arrested. The whole of 2010 was slightly lower than 2009, but the turning point seemed to have been reached in the third quarter of 2010. The six months up to the end of 2010 recorded a 33% improvement as against an almost similar decline during the previous six months.

The improvements in the above leading indicators have had very little impact on turnover and the latest estimate is that 2010 was 36% lower than 2009, although the last six months show some bottoming out of the negative trend.

Prospects for the remainder of 2011 and 2012 There finally seems to light at the end of the tunnel. This does not mean that ‘the recession is over’. Operating levels are in an unexpected, and disappointingly, depressed state. See graph 1.

Levels below the 50-mark indicate pessimism, 0 equals total negativity and 100 indicates absolute optimism. This is a continuously changing weighted index (solid line).

The turning point in this indicator has now been confirmed. Technically, the patterns are exactly the same as experienced in the past.

Our confidence is further enhanced by recent interaction with members that returned the surveys. Most of them are positive and some are actually excited about prospects in the near future. Very encouraging too is the return of private sector clients to the market.

Tender activity Tender activity data is tricky to interpret, yet crucial for understanding future trends in the market.

GRAPH 2 Opinions about tender activity

GRAPH 4: Illustration of contract awards

GRAPH 5: Contracts awarded by value

GRAPH 6: State of order books

GRAPH 7: Awards and turnover lags

GRAPH 8: Civil engineering turnover

Tender activity is a crucial indicator, being a first warning of the potential volume of work. Working from tender ‘success rates’, companies can estimate their contract awards volumes, and therefore turnovers, in months to come. So the confidence reflected by companies regarding this indicator is crucial and often deviates from the number of tenders during a period. This is the case now, again.

Whereas there is a marked improvement in the confidence expressed by members lately (graph 2), the actual number of tenders recorded (graph 3, below) did not show marked improvements. Although the ‘rot has been arrested’, there is little evidence of improvement.

Contract awards All current data still suffers from the very high so-called ‘base effect’ – high numbers recorded during 2008 and 2009. But, there has been a marked turnaround in the confidence indicator around contracts awarded to companies. This is from a very low base though. The annual volatility in the actual value of tenders awarded is extreme (graph 5). In 2007, from a growth rate of nearly 60%, there was a 5% decline beginning in 2008, then nearly 40% growth at the end of 2009, back to declines

of 50% during 2010, and then some positive growth at the end of 2010. This indicator must recover continuously for order books to recover and turnover to bounce back.

The graph shows the precariousness of the workload situation. Net improvements show that more members are experiencing declines than members experiencing growth in their order books, while the ‘satisfied’ indicator combines those that have the same or better order book levels.

Graph 7 shows the interplay between contracts awarded and the lagged reaction on turnover trends. This shows the volatility in the value of awards which is a ‘stock’ indicator, i.e. the full value of an award recorded in the period it happened. The turnover trend is much more subdued due to it being a ‘flow’ indicator, i.e. it smoothes the workload generated by awards, and reflected in order books, over time.

If the trends shown in graph 7 continue and order books start to recover, it will give support to our notion that recovery will be subdued and only beginning to show towards the middle of 2011.

The announcements mentioned before (by the infrastructure cluster) again support our notion that the ‘pipeline’ of projects is as

massive as previously announced, or even bigger! As we said in the last report, it is almost impossible to judge the timing of these, a fact that was illustrated recently, when two substantial awards each were made by the Trans Caledon Tunnel Authority and Eskom.

Conclusions We are convinced of a turnaround. However, great uncertainties exist regarding the flow of work owing to domestic and international economic phenomena.

All in all, SAFCEC maintains the view that the market is still fundamentally underpinned by the massive need for infrastructure development: electricity, water, roads, harbours, rail capacity and possibly oil refining have hardly been addressed. The conviction is that the huge potential, albeit seemingly notional or hypothetical demand at present, should be converted into effective demand taking up the idle capacity in the industry (arresting the shedding of jobs), filling the gaps in infrastructure needs and in the process lifting the ceiling on growth and employment of the economy.

All indications are that support for growth in turnover will improve towards the latter part of 2011, with possible large contracts flowing still during the year.

Government deserves recognition for the ongoing progress in this regard.”

T

HESE ARE THE WORDS of Sam Amod, convenor of the 2011 SAICE Infrastructure Report Card launched in April 2011. Amod says: “In the global economy, the state of a nation’s physical infrastructure provides one of the best indicators of its likely prosperity. For economic activity to be profitable, efficient and functioning, systems

of transport, energy, water and waste management and social infrastructural services are essential.

“There is also a positive relationship between buildings, infrastructure and human wellbeing. Well-designed and maintained public buildings and infrastructure contribute ver y significantly to good social relationships, reduced crime and

increased productivity. Decrepitude and shabbiness have the opposite effect. In short, good infrastructure improves the quality and length of human life: a fact acknowledged by the medical fraternity.”

“Since 2006, the public profile of deteriorating or dysfunctional infrastructure has increased significantly. Not only has this been

Good infrastructure improves the quality and length of human life: a fact acknowledged by the medical fraternity recognised by government as a need to overhaul some municipalities; it has left some owners of infrastructure highly sensitive to criticism and made data collection for this report more problematic,” Amod said at the launch.

Compared to 2006, nine sub-sectors showed improvement, twelve remain unchanged, and four have deteriorated. Of the 27 sub-sectors in the Report Card, nearly half are categorised as being at risk of failure or are already unfit for purpose. The overall grade reflected in the IRC is a C-. The definition of C is: satisfactory for now, although it might be stressed at peaks and will require investment to avoid serious deficiencies.

According to Amod: “This marginal improvement from a grade of D+ in 2006 reflects government’s ongoing investment in infrastructure, and is influenced by the heavy investment in, especially, large national assets: ports, rail, airports and national roads. This investment is laudable, but it is not sufficient without a corresponding commitment to maintenance so that new and existing infrastructure is sustained. In addition, although infrastructure has, on the whole, improved, much of the basic social infrastructure necessary to the daily lives of South Africans is unchanged or deteriorating, especially at the local level.

“Ours is a developing nation, and our engagement in the global economy is constrained by our infrastructural capabilities. The challenges posed in this report are no less acute because they are chronic, but they can be overcome given the same dedication and ingenuity that we applied to the challenge of the World Cup. We hope that this report and discussions arising out of it will provide impetus for such action.”

SAICE’s role in the sector SAICE’s mandate is to provide a mouthpiece for civil engineers on relevant and current issues that impact both the civil engineering industry and the socioeconomic development of our nation.

Manglin Pillay, CEO of the South African Institute of Civil Engineering, is a firm believer that the engineering profession must move towards reflecting South Africa’s demographics while still meeting the growth and development needs of the nation and maintaining the superior quality and standards required by this industry. “It is crucial that SAICE and other voluntary bodies continue to persevere and support the government’s initiatives to solve the critical skills shortages and parity in the corporate

CIVIL ENGINEERING AND CONSTRUCTION space. While there has been dramatic transformation in the demographic profile of civil engineering students, where more than 80% of the student profile is black, there remains a shortage of black civil engineers in the market. It is estimated that less than 35% of our current civil engineers are black. This includes coloured and Indian engineers, both male and female.

“We need to aim to increase the number of designated groups in ownership and management of civil engineering enterprises, measured in terms of voting rights, economic interests, broad participation and management positions at all levels,” he adds.

Transformation is indeed high on SAICE’s agenda and, according to Pillay, the organisation will continue to make bold strides to appreciate transformation challenges and systematically contend with them to achieve national imperatives. “It is vital that we publicise the activities of SAICE that embrace transformation. Transformation needs to be seen and not heard about,” Pillay stresses.

At the beginning of 2011, the organisation embarked on strategic changes in the interest of enhancing SAICE’s brand, image and operations. “It is our intention to encourage public debate and discussion on hot civil engineering-related issues. We need to get people engaged; as much as we target all tiers of the built environment sector, we should start with our members first, taking into account that the dynamics and makeup of our membership has been transforming over the years,” says Pillay.

SAICE is confident that the built infrastructure sector is on the cusp of dramatic change in terms of infrastructure service delivery, the reintroduction of technical capacity and structure into the government sector and playing a pivotal role in achieving rapid socioeconomic development in South Africa.

Credo of the African Engineer for a Sustainable Future Seetella Makhetha, who has been inaugurated as the 109th president of SAICE, used the ‘Credo of the African Engineer for a Sustainable Future’ in his recent presidential address emphasised the engineer’s role in finding a fine balance between development

and sustainability through an ethical leadership approach to service delivery and infrastructure creation.

Makhetha presented his presidential address emphasising the importance of the ‘Credo of the African Engineer’, based on the shared values of the ‘Order of the Engineer’ first recited in Cleveland in 1970: I am an Engineer and in my profession I take deep pride. To it I owe solemn obligations.

Since the origins of humanity on the continent of Africa, human progress has been spurred by the engineering genius.

Engineers have made usable nature’s vast resources of material and energy for humanity’s benefit. Engineers have vitalised, and turned to practical use, the principles of science and the means of

The organisation will continue to make bold strides to appreciate transformation challenges and systematically contend with them technology. Were it not for this heritage of accumulated experience, my efforts would be feeble.

As an Engineer, I pledge to practise integrity and fair dealing, tolerance and respect, and to uphold devotion to the standards and the dignity of my profession, conscious always that my skill carries with it the obligation to serve humanity by making the most sustainable use of Earth’s precious resources.

As an engineer, I shall participate in none but honest enterprises.

When needed, my skill and knowledge shall be given without reservation for the public good. In the performance of duty and in fidelity to my profession, I shall give the utmost.

“If all engineers adhered to the contents of this pledge, they would provide enabling solutions to allow people to acquire and maintain a sustainable and balanced lifestyle, which would, in turn, ensure a sustainable future for all,” Makhetha concluded.

Government budget allocation

Multi-billion rand improvements by government to transport infrastructure over the next two years are guaranteed to radically change the way South Africans travel.

A

MOUNTING TO R66 BILLION over the next year, and rising to R80 billion by 2013/14, the improvements are set to also create numerous job and tourism opportunities. The improvements will be spread across the country with both urban and rural parts set to benefit.

This comes as current transport infrastructure developments in South Africa have been recognised as being of world-class standard.

Over the past few years a major capital injection into transport-related infrastructure and operations has begun to produce some important results.

The second report card on infrastructure states that the country’s best performing infrastructure was its aviation infrastructuree, which was awarded the report’s only A. According to the report, South Africa’s national road network was “good to excellent”, and the South African National Roads Agency Limited (SANRAL), the Airports Company of South Africa (ACSA) and various ports have performed exceptionally well.

OR Tambo International Airport has been named the best airport in Africa, and it was also in the top three most-improved airports worldwide at the World Airport Awards for 2010/11 held in Denmark.

Meanwhile, Johannesburg’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system has been described as

far better than that of New York by Walter Hook, head of the Institute for Transportation and Development Planning in New York City, during a tour of Rea Vaya BRT facilities earlier this year.

The Department of Transport has announced a R97 billion rail upgrade programme which will be rolled out over the next 18 years. Additional allocations over the MTEF include R2.5 billion to municipalities for public transport systems and infrastructure as well as additional funds for the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa, for replacing signalling infrastructure and refurbishing rail coaches.

A total of R30.2 billion will be spent improving the passenger rail system over the next three years.

Since 1994 billions of rands have also been spent on the improvement of rural road infrastructure. For the first time, this year the national Department of Transport has secured dedicated funding for road maintenance with the S’hamba Sonke (walking together) programme being rolled out in a bid to address road maintenance on secondary roads and rural roads, and particularly potholes. This is a new and innovative nationwide programme to focus on the maintenance of secondary road infrastructure using labour-intensive methods of construction and maintenance.

A total of R6.4 billion has been set aside in

2011/12, R7.5 billion in 2012/13 and R8.2 billion for 2013/14, amounting to R22.3 billion in the medium term. The programme will create new opportunities for emerging contractors and thousands of jobs across the country.

This is over and above provincial and municipal funding for rural road infrastructure.

The national Department of Public Works, meanwhile, has invested R32 million in the development of essential skills for young people, particularly in the built environment sector.

The learners will undergo six months of theoretical training and then proceed to experiential learning for a minimum of 12 months on a learnership programme. Depending on availability of funds, a series of additional learnerships will be undertaken to complete the four-year artisan development programme.

After the completion of the programme NECSA will be responsible for identifying at least 50 workplace/experiential learning opportunities.

The Department of Public Works will be responsible for identifying an additional 50 work placements for experiential learning. Additional training may be identified which will be pitched at N4 level. This training may be undertaken during experiential learning and will enable learners to exit with a full artisan qualification.

Government has also launched a programme to tackle the problem of potholes.

The project will create about 14 000 jobs.

Respected and representative The Contractors Plant Hire Association was formed in 1970 to promote the development of the plant hire industry and generally to watch over and protect the interests of its members.

T

HE ASSOCIATION has its headquarters in Benoni, where it has a permanent national office. Regional branches have been established in KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga, the Western Cape and the Eastern Cape (Port Elizabeth and East London).

Management is in the hands of the chief executive officer, who in turn reports to, and carries out the instructions of the national executive committee. The national executive committee under the chairmanship of the national president is the policy-making and highest authority of the association.

The association has a code of ethics designed to promote professionalism and LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011 - 103

PLANT AND EQUIPMENT high standards of conduct on the part of its members. The standard terms and conditions of hire are also available to members.

We believe that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts and with collective strength we can achieve what an individual or company would have little or no chance of achieving.

Our association represents approximately 90% of the hire industry in South Africa.

was decided to complete the process by writing the learning material and the necessary quality controls, so ensuring a process of uniformity in the industry. This process was completed and funded by the Hire Chamber

Education and training During 2002, the Contractors Plant Hire Association (CPHA) was invited to take up a position with the Hire Chamber of the Services SETA to engage with the formulisation of training in the hire industry.

At this stage, the Skills Development Act had been passed by Parliament and has for a long time been perceived as another ‘tax’.

Many companies chose to pay the levy but misunderstood what it was really meant for.

The act was very clear in stating that a SETA would only engage with organised employer and organised labour constituencies. As the CPHA was the only association in the hire industry, we applied to become a Schedule 1 member of the Services SETA. From the beginning, it was recognised that in order to compile acceptable and meaningful material the stakeholders from the hire and construction industries would have to play a huge role.

Our Standards Generating Body was formed, where all relevant industries took part and both employer and labour components were on board. The search for unit standards began. While similar standards were found in other parts of the world, it became clear that although these standards would help in the process of creating unit standards for South Africa, new standards would have to be written and implemented for our local conditions. At an early stage, certain aspects were highlighted. Industry insisted that operators in the hire industry should be able to read and write, they should comply with the OHS Act, the Mines Health & Safety Act and should also comply with construction regulations.

The Hire Chamber engaged with the Construction SETA on the plant operator qualifications and after a lengthy process, the unit standards for all the machines hired out by the industry were finally written and registered on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF).

As the industry had insisted on certain entry-level requirements, as stated above, it

of the Services SETA. This material is fully accredited by both Services SETA and the Construction SETA. Simultaneously, it was identified that a qualification now existed, unique to the hire industry, that of the plant controller, a position that is found in all plant hire companies.

Again, the process of engagement had to be followed, after which standards and learning material was developed, and the qualification registered on the NQF. The training path we have chosen is not going to be an easy one, and we will have many mountains to climb before we reach any improvement in the industry. However, one thing is certain, unless we implement our minimum standards from the start, we will not achieve our goals.

Unless the gaps that exist are identified at the start they will never be taken care of. We cannot afford to sacrifice quality for the sake of quantity, and the CPHA-approved training centres must work towards offering their services with this goal in mind.

It has been estimated that there are between 28 000 and 30 000 currently employed operators in the market; each one will have to be found competent in compliance with the OHS Act, in order to operate a particular machine. Bearing in

104 - LOCAL GOVERNMENT SUPPLIER 2011

mind the criteria that industry has put in place (previously mentioned), and the fact that those currently employed operators cannot be removed from their place of work for any length of time, a programme has

It has been estimated that there are between 28 000 and 30 000 currently employed operators in the market been devised to ensure all the requirements are addressed.

It was also identified that the full qualification would be best suited to new entrants to the industry rather than those already employed. The full qualification would still be available to currently employed operators.

It is a 12-month programme consisting of a mixture of on-the- job training as well as training at a training centre. A skills programme is a selection of an elective, the safety and environmental issues as well as the adult basic education training (ABET) components.

This would form a building block towards a full qualification.

The Site Certificate will last for one year The competent learner will be registered on a national database administered by the CPHA. We anticipate that the above will not take longer than five days to complete. All employers who pay their skills development levies (SDLs) to the Services SETA will have the ABET training paid for by the Services SETA. The cost to our members, who pay their SDL to the Services SETA, will be R1 590.00 per learner, excluding VAT. A portion of this amount can be claimed back through their SDL grants.

Information and communications technology The South African government is desperate to find innovative ways to deliver services to the public and, despite this being a massive challenge, it is a future we must realise, for the good of all. This being so, investment in infrastructure will come and the demand for supportive technology will increase.”

Sam Mabitsela, WizCAD Engineering Information Technology

T

HE WORLD OF ENGINEERING has radically transformed over the last 100 years. This is due primarily to the advancement of technology and the need for ingenuity in providing solutions to problems such as our exponential population growth, accelerated urbanisation, inadequate economic development and a Darwinist survival-of-the-fittest, globalised free market. Add to this the shortage of engineers and you have a right royal stew – a challenge of notable proportions.

The pressure on engineers to do more with less (time) is making the working lives of engineers, technologists and technicians almost impossible to manage, even with supportive technology. For many of these professionals the day ends in the early hours of the morning.

Fortunately their passion for their profession offsets the negatives around staying in the office till late. The name of the game, to survive and retain one’s sanity in these times, is actually in the PALM. of one’s hand: Plan: The process of setting goals and objectives, developing strategies and outlining tasks and schedules to accomplish the goals.

Arrange: The process of preparation, of placing in a proper, desired or convenient order, people, tasks and processes, of effectively adjusting to change and of reaching agreement, or an understanding, of what it is that needs to and must be achieved, by when, and to what standards.

Lead: The duty and ability, as the leader of a team, to show the way, to guide and direct, to motivate and inspire the people of your team to achieve and deliver excellence.

Measure: The process of measuring what it

is you are managing, so as to proactively avoid problems, implement meaningful solutions and to communicate, meaningfully, up, down and across the value chain.

These things you need to do well – and better than most if you are to succeed and grow.

As engineers, problems in the design office and on site are usually caused by lack of integration between the project team members as well as the failure to communicate. With scarce time of the essence, work and communication needs to revolve around a ‘single version of the truth’, an information system comprising databases, tools and, perhaps most importantly of all, e-mail that is integrated with one’s cell phone. This is mission critical in the race against time to complete projects. With penalties for late delivery and tough, demanding clients, your crises are not their problem.

For engineers, technical drawings are the standard communication tool. Various tools such as Autodesk®, with its AutoCAD® package, are frequently used as a drafting package. Currently, Autodesk® has more than 10 million registered users and, of late, the 3D and 4D enhancements have come as a blessing to many.

Within the civil and structural engineering space, software family solutions to assist engineers to draft, visualise, analyse and test their designs before projects are implemented are a huge plus, and a time saver. These packages are so advanced that analysis and performance of the elements are predicted accurately before they are built. Design changes are modelled and analysed a lot quicker, with greater efficiencies and better results. Modern-day CAD packages such as

Civil 3D, Revit® Structure, Robot Structural Analysis, Inventor®, etc. detect design errors, clashes and misfits early in the project life cycle, helping to minimise the costs of rework and redesign. Since these packages are built to enable the designer to work with a variety of design scenarios, without much difficulty, one can multi-task. Another plus! Also of great value is the design visualisation across all disciplines. Models of civil works, mechanical plant works, structural and electrical designs can be combined into a single file that can be projected as visualisation for a realistic final view – something the client needs and should see. It’s like watching a movie!

Given current trends in the engineering industry, it is clear that the adoption of CAD software in all civil engineering disciplines is on the increase and rightly so. This means it is extremely important that engineering graduates are able to use, or at least be familiar with, these software packages before entering the market. Fortunately, a number of engineering faculties are integrating the use of these software packages with the learning process.

One thing is for sure: computers and application software are now a necessity and no more a nice, convenient option.

NO-DIG SOUTH AFRICA 2011 The Southern African Society for Trenchless Technology (SASTT) has announced that No-Dig South Africa 2011 will take place in Pretoria on 23 and 24 August.

Supported by the International Society for Trenchless Technology (ISTT), the event will feature the ISTT Trenchless Masterclass, which is a widely acclaimed educational training programme.

Led by international experts Dr Sam Ariaratnam and Dr Dec Downey, the ISTT Trenchless Masterclass will provide attendees with an overview of the latest trenchless techniques, as well as detailed sessions on specific topics, such as: inspection, repair, rehabilitation, replacement and new installation. A

certificate of attendance will be provided to all delegates. South African professional delegates will receive CPD points.

The simultaneous exhibition is the SASTT’s first major event to showcase trenchless technology and will provide suppliers of equipment and services with an unrivalled opportunity to present a range of products and services to a highly focused audience.

Trenchless technology is internationally recognised as a progressive and modern solution for the installation and refurbishment of underground services, particularly in urban areas, where the disruption to the public and the environment is minimised. As South Africa plans a huge programme of new infrastructure installations and

continues extensive repairs to ageing underground services across the country, the staging of No-Dig South Africa 2011 is particularly relevant and timely for many engineers wishing to be brought up to date on the latest techniques and products.

Elundini geared for service delivery Eastern Cape municipalities have been tasked with providing services such as roads, which in turn has led to many such local government structures buying their own fleets of earthmoving equipment.

C

HULEZA QOTOYI, the technical services manager of the Elundini Local Municipality at Maclear, saw the need for an earthmoving fleet.

She first approached the Alfred Nzo District Municipality at Mount Ayliff, which already had such a fleet in operation, to discuss the most appropriate way to operate and manage a road construction fleet of this nature.

The potential problem of a skills shortage, on both management and skills-transfer levels, was solved when the Elundini Local Municipality appointed consultants Akhatech from Pietermaritzburg as fleet managers for the earthmoving equipment the municipality wanted to buy.

“Our first task was to advise the Elundini Municipality on their wish list for earthmoving equipment,” he says. “We looked at their needs and helped them prepare a public tender, which was awarded to Bell Equipment through their customer service centre in East London,” says Les Maker, general manager of Akhatech.

The Elundini Local Municipality has since taken delivery of three Bell B20D Articulated Dump Trucks (ADTs), a Bell HD820E Excavator, a Bell 315SJ 4x4 Tractor Loader Backhoe (TLB), a Bomag BW212D-40 Padfoot Vibrating Roller and a 1 000 ℓ diesel trailer, a Bell 672G Grader, an 18 000 ℓ Water Bowser on a Bell B20D chassis and a high-pressure water washer.

“Our advice to the Elundini Local Municipality was that the Bell HD820E Excavator would be the ideal loading tool for the proven Bell B20D ADTs, which can be licensed to be operated on public roads,” adds Maker.

“We also specified a drum-driven vibrating roller owing to the often-steep terrain that we encounter here, and Bell Equipment’s Bomag BW212D-40 fits the bill perfectly.”

Maker further expands on the role of the Bell 315SJ TLB by stating that he saw this versatile machine as being used for trenching, pipe laying, material loading and general betterment and housekeeping on construction sites. The Bell 672G Grader will be used to carry out the pioneering work and shaping the road profile before importing gravel. It will then be used to level the gravel heaps while the Bomag and the water tanker work in tandem to compact the gravel layer.

The team will be used primarily to construct rural access roads among villages in the Maclear area.

Akhatech will manage the selection and temporary appointment of the operators for the new fleet, drawn from the local

population. In turn, the initial training and evaluation will be done by Bell Equipment.

Operators will be employed on a three-month trial period after which they can apply for the permanent posts with the municipality.

Gavin Hall is the deputy infrastructure manager for the Elundini Local Municipality and he is pleased with the way the process has run to date.

“We’re very excited about the prospect of developing our municipal area with our own fleet of machines and adding value by empowering local people with new skills,” says Hall. “Knowing that we’ve got the backing of a world-renowned company such as Bell Equipment, and that we will be adding to our skills with our eagerness to learn from Les Maker and his team, makes us confident about fulfilling our promises of efficient service delivery.”
