INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION

* The concepts utilized in the development of the “New Generation” prototype correctional facility have included:

• Unit Management• Direct Supervision• Communal Cells

* The prototypes as developed were guided by the need to enhance the facility’s potential for rehabilitation while maintaining a high level of security by design

* The concept as developed incorporate all the recognized standard for humane incarceration.

* The designs reflect detailed space norms and standards incorporating recognized standards and local conditions

* The design concepts have been developed:(a) To achieve low Life-Cycle-Costing(b) To permit a variety of procurement methods(c) To permit rapid & expeditious construction

(d) To maintain a high level of security by design

1.1. THE OBJECTIVESTHE OBJECTIVES

1.1.1. Reduction of overcrowding

1.1.2. Introduction of Unit Management

1.1.3. Reduction of Life- Cycle- Costs

1.1.4. Enhancement of Rehabilitation Programmes

1.1. THE OBJECTIVESTHE OBJECTIVES

1.2 OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVES

1.2.1. Development of Life-Cycle-Costing procedures

1.2.2. Revised Business & Procurement process which

reduce risks but enhance competition1.2.3. Revised criteria for prioritization of projects1.2.4. Revised criteria for creation of new facilities

maintaining a high level of security by design1.2.5. Development of Master Plan for new &

renovated facilities

1.1. THE OBJECTIVESTHE OBJECTIVES

1.3 BUDGETARY OBJECTIVES

1.3.1. Reduction of Capital Costs

1.3.2. Reduction of Operating & Maintenance Costs

1.3.3. Modifications to MTEF Cycle Budget to reflect strategic objectives

1.3.4 Implementation of Life-Cycle-Costing methodology to achieve all of

the above and reduce risk associated with

construction

2.1. DEVELOPMENT OF PROTOTYPE DESIGN

2.2. UTILIZATION OF CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

2.2. THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS THE PROCUREMENT PROCESS

2.1. KEY FEATURES OF THE THE PROTOTYPE DESIGN

2.1.1. Standard designs with fee and construction cost savings through

repetition. 2.1.2. Establishing integrated and co- operative relationship with the

Department of Public Works. 2.1.3. Permitting the introduction of Construction Management to allow for

options other than conventional construction methodologies while

reducing risk

2.2. THE PROCUREMENT PROCESSTHE PROCUREMENT PROCESS

2.2 UTILISATION OF CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT

2.2.1. Encouraging the participation by a wide variety of construction providers

2.2.2. Permitting the utilisation of prisoner labour and products

2.2.3. Significantly increase the purchasing power of current budget

allocations 2.2.4 Reducing the cost & time risks

associated with construction

3.3 COSTING AND ESTIMATING

3.3.1. Estimated project construction cost per prisoner is 1/3 cost of recent facilities.

3.3.2. Controlling construction cost through joint efforts with CSIR security & building

systems

groups to ensure the use of “Appropriate”

technology
