Education Infrastructure Grant Expenditure for 2014/15
Financial Year
Eastern Cape
• The PED had cited a number of reasons which led to the under spending.
•Coega Development sanitation programme had reported low spending expenditure
due to a 2 to 3 month delay with procurement of contractors. CDC (Coega) were
allocated projects amounting to R100m (subsequently reduced to R65m) on which
their appointment of PSPs and contractors took extremely long due to internal
procurement issues.
•Delays in implementation of some of Department of Public Works’ large projects
due to labour unrest & strikes, examples are that of Jeffreys Bay Primary School,
Sunshine Special School, and Jubilee Park Primary School.
•Also delays in replacing terminated contracts at Klipfontein Primary School & St
Matthews Senior Secondary School due to non-performance.
Free State
•The PED had cited delays in supply chain management processes where delays in
the appointment of some projects led to re-advertisement. This had adverse
consequences as multiple projects were clustered to ease management.
•Amongst others, cash flow management measures introduced to control the
anticipated general over-expenditure of the Department of Education budget.
Education Infrastructure Grant Expenditure for 2014/15
Financial Year
North West
The PED had cited challenges which led to under spending as follows:
• New schools implemented by DoE were delayed due to SCM (Supply Chain
Management Unit) taking long time evaluate, adjudicate and awarding contracts to
successful bidders on time. These processes result into late appointment of contractors.
•There were disruptions by the communities on 2 major projects. These protests were as
a result of sub-contractors who were demanding that they be paid more from the
contract. They demanded to be paid 30% of the contract value of the project thus causing
more delay to the actual progress to be registered.(Examples. Alabama and Oukassie
Primary Schools)
•Community unrests at Schweizer Reneke Primary with members of the community
demanding to be employed without meeting proper requirements.
•There had also been challenges related to Tribal authorities - land disputes between
tribal authority and Local municipality.
•Transfer of projects to DPW as implementing agent led to delays in implementation of
the programme. This followed the decision by EXCO to have infrastructure projects
implemented by Public Works in the province.
•Poor performance of contractors and consultants and thus delays in submitting invoices.
SCHOOL BUILD PROGRAMME
• The Provincial Schools Build Programme targets new
schools,
additions
to
existing
schools,
new
and
upgrading of services and maintenance
• 12 299 projects are in the pipeline, which commences
with
identification,
feasibility,
design,

construction, retention and hand-over stages
• As at end March 2015, 3 477 projects are in
construction, with 3 463 in practical and final completion
phases.

11 projects were added into the system in the fourth quarter. The movement of
project pipeline from the third to fourth quarter is almost insignificant. A significant
number of projects are still sitting in both identified and feasibility stages and not
filtering to design and tender and thus getting ready for implementation. The PED
can be commended for closing out most of the projects which were sitting in
retention at end of 2013/14 financial year.

financial year. The PED reported that a total of 58 projects were closed out in
the last quarter of the financial year. The PED needs to ensure that the huge
number of projects at pre-feasibility stage filters through and thus getting ready

HR Capacitation for School Infrastructure Delivery
•
The education sector has identified lack of appropriate capacity as a impeding factor
in school infrastructure delivery. The process of strengthening Infrastructure delivery
capacity in the Provincial Education Infrastructure units has been ongoing, with the
key objective of recruiting and appointing of built environment and finance personnel
for improving school infrastructure delivery in our provinces. A total of 153 vacancies
have been filled.

HR Capacitation for School Infrastructure Delivery
•
Provinces have been provided a maximum of R26 million
from the Education Infrastructure Grant in the 2014/15
financial year for the appointment of public servants to their
infrastructure units.
• This funding has been increased to R32.9 million in the
2015/16 financial year for the process to be taken through to
district level. The Initiatives aimed at capacitating district
offices are also being addressed as building operational
capacity at these levels as infrastructure needs and progress
is monitored at district level.
• The sector has continued to engage with the Department of
Public Service and Administration in working out market
competitive remunerative strategies to ensure that the posts
are attractive for the more experienced candidates to take up
in all nine provinces.
Monitoring Infrastructure Delivery in the Education Sector
• DBE has established a PSU within the DBE to monitor the
implementation of infrastructure and services provision by the
various Professional Service Providers (PSP’s) and
Implementing Agents (IA’s) that the Department of Basic
Education and provinces are utilizing for the implementation of
the infrastructure programme.
• The PSU is responsible for continuously tracking progress on
projects; inspecting work in progress and in completed projects
to evaluate quality of work as well as monitoring expenditure
per project on a monthly basis
• DBE has also increased its monitoring capacity and monitoring
visits are conducted twice annually where planning, budgetting ,
expenditure, monitoring, project management and procurement
issues are interrogated and a sample of projects are visited.
Based on the findings from these visits, remedial actions are
18
devised with the province and monitored by the DBE.
Monitoring Infrastructure Delivery in the Education Sector
•
•
-
Monitoring deals with both programme and project matters;
Programme matters include;
The pattern of overall expenditure being achieved;
Comparisons of expenditure to projected cash flows;
Progress being made with key groups of projects [eg.
Water, sanitation, libraries, laboratories, Grade R]
• At the Project level the focus is on ensuring :
-
that planning and design processes are progressing;
- that the tender process for the appointment of contractors
is progressing, that construction is progressing
satisfactorily, [i.e. on programme, on budget, at acceptable
quality…];
- that projects are being handed over and closed out and that
final accounts are being wrapped up
Approach to Monitoring
• Projects that have been implemented over a long period of
time, especially those in excess of 12 to 18 months.
• Projects that are in critical phases of construction so that
workmanship could be monitored and evaluated.
• Projects that have had significant cost variation.
• Projects that have not had showed progress on delivery in
relation to the finances progress
• Projects with a high monetary value;
• Special Schools;
