20
STRATEGIC VISION IMPLEMENTATION
IDT is a major public entity and development agency which has to:1. Create value in the lives of the people of South Africa. 2. Ensure that it delivers high quality service and sustainable development in
a cost effective way. 3. Remain relevant in the South African development landscape,4. Find innovative and sustainable solutions to the development challenges
facing the country as identified in the National Development Plan and other key policy instruments.
1. The strength of the IDT lies in its ability to deliver quality social infrastructure through its niche in programme management. The results of the scan suggest that the IDT will deliver meaningful value add to government through cost-effective delivery of programmes, in such a manner that key development objectives of job creation, shared prosperity and skills development are an integral part of addressing the social infrastructure and social development backlogs. This will be achieved through the continued application of IDT’s integrated service delivery model.
21
KEY PERFORMANCE MEASURES & INDICATORS (1)
Corporate Business Plan and the 2015/16 APP reflected in Appendix 2 and 3. Delivery of these pre-determined targets hinges on a number of assumptions and dependencies:
VALUE AND DELIVERY OF BUSINESS PORTFOLIO: The IDT is required to generate its own business portfolio. However, the speed at which agreements are concluded as well as the frequency and values of funds transferred is not entirely within the control of the organisation and delays impact on delivery. Associated indicators and targets assume that agreements are concluded before the start of and or early in the financial year and that clients will transfer funds as stipulated in the agreements.
MANAGEMENT FEE: Is negotiated with clients and stipulated in agreements. . In order to remain a going concern, the minimum average management fee which the IDT can consider is between 6% and 7% in the short term. A level lower than 6% will jeopardise the organisation’s going concern status. If clients do not make the funds available for the IDT to deliver, the organisation will not be able to collect its management fees.
22
KEY PERFORMANCE MEASURES & INDICATORS (2)
GOING CONCERN: It assumes that the operation will be able to continue trading for a minimum of 12 months. Currently, the going concern base is at 12 months, assuming 100% collection of outstanding management fees. Unforeseen cash flow challenges may jeopardise the organisation and thus could have devastating impact on the delivery of approximately R20bn programmes over the planning period.
CERTAINTY OF MANDATE AND LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY: The Shareholder has undertaken to formally consider and provide certainty on the organisation’s mandate and long-term sustainability. The uncertainty, which had prevailed for a number of years, negatively impacts client confidence, organisational culture and staff morale, which in turn is reflected in business generation, productivity and delivery capacity.
ATTRACT AND RETAIN RIGHT SKILLS: The on-going uncertainly has increased the risk of flight of skills resulting in a high vacancy rate of 20% in 2014/15. This impacts the organisation’s ability to recruit and retain appropriate skills. Client confidence is enhanced by the organisation’s ability to deploy appropriate competencies to manage programmes.

AN OVERVIEW: FINANCIAL CHALLENGES & RISKS
The major challenge that faces the IDT is the uncertainty surrounding the financial sustainability of the organisation.
Treasury has allocated R50m per year for the 2015/16 financial year. The funds have been allocated on condition that “the Independent Development Trust will develop and submit a restructuring plan to the National Treasury…”.
The Business Case (the plan referred to by Treasury) is being prepared in conjunction with the Department of Public Works. The plan will address, inter alia, the issues of:
The structure, form and resourcing required for the organisation in order for it to become self-sustainable over the MTEF period;
The clearly identified target market for the organisation;
The management fees structure required to provide for the funding of the organisation.

BUDGET 2015/16 & FORECAST2015/16 – 2017/18 Budget
The Business Plan for the financial years 2015/16 to 2017/18 shows steady growth in its programme delivery as opposed to the quantum growth rate of the past 3 years.
Between the 2010/11 and 2013/14 programme delivery grew from R 2.2 billion to R 6.63 billion
Growth is predicted to reach R 7 billion to R 8 bn. over the next three years .
Increase in level of management fees to ensure longer-term financial viability. However this action has met resistance from a number of client departments, hence the Practice Note issued by the National Treasury.
Late transfer of programme funds – from which management fees are drawn - exacerbate the financial situation of the IDT.
Cost containment strategy implemented to closely monitor and contain costs.
30
INCOME
THE IDT HAS TWO SOURCES OF INCOME:THE IDT HAS TWO SOURCES OF INCOME:
MANAGEMENT FEES:MANAGEMENT FEES:
Management fees charged to client departments constitutes the major source of its income. The level of fees budgeted/projected at 6% during the 2014/15 financial year and management has implemented a process to increase the average level of fees to 6.3% over the budget year. The level of fees will be further increased over the outer years.
INVESTMENT INCOME: INVESTMENT INCOME:
Earned from interest on investment fund.
The Fund has declined over years as it has been used to fund the IDT’s operational costs; and,
The reduction in the level of interest rates together with the decrease in the capital invested has resulted in the investment income being reduced significantly over the past few years.
31
HUMAN RESOURCES STRATEGY
The HR Strategy aims to facilitate that the IDT can at all times attract, retain and develop the best available skills such that it is able to deliver on its mandate.
Staff establishment: 441. Staff occupancy: 80%.
The IDT plans to embark on a refocus and streamlining process to improve the service offering of the organization and safeguarding performance on obligations to clients. This process includes a structure review aimed at achieving among other, the following goals:
To increase the built environment technical capacity in order to strengthen social infrastructure programme management while reducing the social and community development staff contingent as part of de-investment in functional areas not aligned with the new mandate
To bring about a healthy balance in the ratio of core and support staff through increasing the total direct programme staff while reducing staff in administration, corporate services and governance positions
To increase capacity at regional level and reduce staff at head office, thus address the top heavy concern visible in the existing structure

CORPORATE PROGRAMME WEIGHTING
In the quest of transforming the IDT from a government funding dependent agency into a self-sustaining organisation based on revenue generated from its service offering, the IDT has instituted a targeted operational refocus placing a significant amount of effort on institutional and financial sustainability aspects. This has necessitated the review of weighting on its Corporate programmes and related strategic goals resulting in the prominence of financial and institutional sustainability matters as provided under Programme 2 in 2015/16 and a gradual shift towards the service delivery-oriented Programme 1 in subsequent years.

IMPLICATIONS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS
40
IMPLICATIONS OF AND ON THE STRATEGY
In considering the 2015/16 – 2019/20 Strategic Plan, the Portfolio Committee on Public Works is requested to note:
That the Strategy, Budget and Annual Performance Plan in question have been prepared on the basis of the status quo with adjustments being made where appropriate and as informed by the environmental scan findings and the strategic direction given by the Board. A review will be undertaken by the Board on confirmation by the Shareholder of the appointment of the CEO and/or mandate of the organization.
The financial vulnerability faced by the organization as highlighted in the 2015/16 budget arising from among other retention of personnel in operational areas not supported by the refocus and streamlining objectives and challenges relating to charging and collection of management fees.
That the tight fiscal position of government as evidenced by budget cuts in public spend has dual and adverse impact in programme portfolio payments and income of the IDT as presented in the Corporate Plan.
41
IMPLICATIONS OF AND ON THE STRATEGY
In considering the 2015/16 – 2019/20 Strategic Plan, the Portfolio Committee on Public Works is requested to note:
4.The weights allocated to key performance indicators and targets in the Corporate Plan as a basis for directing organizational strategies and operational focus and thus informing corporate performance evaluation.
5.The financial sustainability challenge that has faced the IDT as it impacts on the Organisation’s ability to delivery on its mandate.
6.The value of programme implementation agency agreements (PIA) or memoranda of agreements (MOA) signed for future implementation is currently in excess of R 20 billion over the next three years. This would represent a significant risk to the relevant departments and service delivery to communities should the IDT not be able to implement their programmes.
42
RECOMMENDATIONS
It is therefore recommended that the Portfolio Committee on Public Works:
Recommends the IDT’s 2015/16 - 2019/20 Strategic Plan, 2015/16 Annual Performance Plan and 2015/16 – 2017/18 Budget to Parliament; and
Sustains its support for the long-term sustainability of the IDT such that the organisation can maintain and accelerate its distinctive role in delivering social infrastructure in the most marginalised communities on behalf of government.
