1. Introduction

The Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism (DEAT) is in the process of opening up the next funding cycle in respect of its Social Responsibility Programme (SRP) and will therefore be calling for applications for funding for the MTEF period 2007/2008 – 2009/2010. The purpose of this guide is to assist proponents in submitting applications for funding.

1.1. What is the Social Responsibility Programme

The Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism, Social Responsibility Programme commenced in 1999 as the Poverty Relief Programme. The department started with a budget allocation of R 75 million. It has since grown to R 447 million in the 2006/07 financial year.

The Social Responsibility Programme addresses the department's core responsibilities in a manner that ensures it contributes to job creation, skills development, SMME development and the upliftment of households especially those headed up by women.

In support of the nodes as specified under the Urban Renewal Programme and the Integrated Sustainable Rural Development Programme, the Social Responsibility Programme ensures the utilization of 40% of programme funding in these nodes as well as providing dedicated technical and human resource support.

2. The Expanded Public Works Programme

The Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) is a nationwide programme which seeks to draw significant numbers of unemployed into the productive sector of the economy, gaining skills while they work and increasing their capacity to earn income. In essence, the programme has a focus of using government expenditure across all three spheres to provide employment opportunities and skills development to the unemployed.

The programme has been divided into four sectors (environment and culture, social, economic and infrastructure), each consisting of a number of government departments with one department nominated to lead each sector. The Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism has been nominated through the Chief Directorate Social Responsibility Policy and Projects to lead the environment and culture sector.

The Social Responsibility Programme of the department is housed and managed within the Chief Directorate Social Responsibility Policy and Projects of the department.

One of the key focuses of the Social Responsibility Programme is the creation of temporary employment and skills development opportunities for the unemployed people through the implementation of labour intensive projects under the auspices of the Expanded Public Works Programme that support the line functions of the department.

As the Social Responsibility Programme is implemented under the auspices of the Expanded Public Works Programme, it therefore seeks to fund projects which can achieve the objectives and targets of the EPWP namely job creation and skills development but that are also aligned to the mandate of the department.

3. SRP Project Cycle

The broad outline of the Social Responsibility Programme project cycle is as follows:

• Formulate criteria including norms for the Social Responsibility Programme

• Proposal identification

• Selection and evaluation of proposals

• Appointment of Implementers

• Phase One – Detailed planning

• Phase Two – Implementation

• Monthly Reporting

• Annual Audits

• Closure

• Evaluations / Impact Studies

Currently, the programme is in a proposal identification stage of its new cycle of funding. The guide to the application form as well as the application form in respect of this process is contained as Annexure A and Annexure B respectively.

4. SRP Norms and Criteria for Funding

4.1. Norms and Standards

Through the implementation of projects, it was discovered through a process of analysis of projects within a similar area, with similar outputs and timeframes that the funding for these projects differed from one to the next. In order to create uniformity in respect of funding of similar projects, the department undertook a process to develop norms and standards to assist with the planning of projects which will be funded through the Social Responsibility Programme.

This process also took into account that the Social Responsibility Programme is implemented under the auspices of the Expanded Public Works Programme and therefore the norms and standards that were developed are geared towards labour intensive construction in order to create job opportunities.

The norms and standards guide is contained as Annexure C.

4.2. Criteria for Funding

The Social Responsibility Programme funding is directly linked towards departmental targets in respect of the Expanded Public Works Programme. For this purpose, the criteria for funding a project through the programme are directly aligned in order to achieve those targets. Therefore, the minimum criteria to qualify as a project which can be funded are as follows:

• 30% of the project budget must be utilized for community wages

• 90% of temporary job days must be reserved for local people

• 60% of temporary job days must be reserved for women

• 20% of temporary job days must be reserved for youth

• 2% of temporary job days must be reserved for persons with disabilities

• Training days must equal 9% of temporary job days

• 30% of training days must be in utilized for accredited training

• 50% of the SMME's used must represent enterprises with 70% of equity owned by PDI's

• The projects must be included in the municipal IDP and support the PGDS

5. SRP Implementation Framework

Once the selection and evaluation of proposals received process is complete, the department will place an expression of interest advertisement requesting all interested parties to submit an application to be come an Implementer (service providers / agencies implementing projects funded through the SRP on behalf of the department) for a project. All those projects selected for funding will be included in the advertisement and interested parties are requested to submit an application per project.

After the evaluation and selection process of Implementers per projects is complete, the department will then enter into Memorandum of Agreement with those parties whom have been successful in the selection process. At this point the department will also inform the proponents of projects which Implementer has been selected for their project / s.

The Memorandum of Agreement which is entered into is broken down into two phases. These two phases are outlined as follows:

5.1. Phase One – Detailed Planning

After the Implementer has complied with all of the departmental requirements and a valid agreement is in place, the initial payment for Phase One is processed. The initial payment for Phase One is essentially half of the planning fees which is capped at a maximum of 8% of the total project budget. Phase One as per the agreement entails that the Implementer has four months in which to complete the execution of the detailed planning for that particular project. In essence, detailed planning should reflect the assumptions and calculations on which the information which is inserted into the business plan is based. This would include such information as the number of visitors per annum for different seasons on which the number of campsites is based in the case of a camp and also include the detailed costing and design of the camp. It would furthermore include information on the method of providing water and services to the camp as well as access. Furthermore the operating cost of the camp, the date on which it will be profitable and how the operating cost until the profitability stage is reached will be funded.

After the department has accepted the execution of the detailed planning, the final payment for Phase One is processed. The department and the Implementer then sign a business plan which becomes an annexure to the Memorandum of Agreement. Once the business plan has been duly signed and all other contractual compliance matters have been complied with, the initial payment is processed. The initial payment for Phase Two is essentially made up of the cash flow as projected in terms of the business plan less the amount already advanced for Phase One. After the initial payment for Phase Two has been processed, Phase Two – Implementation commences.

5.2. Phase Two - Implementation

Essentially, Phase Two is the actually delivery of the envisaged outputs of the project. The implementer is required to submit monthly reports on the www.thelapa.com against agreed upon deliverables as per the business plan.

Any payments subsequent to the initial payment, are made on the basis of progress achieved and reported as well as a site inspection conducted by a departmental official verifying physical performance on site as well as a sample analysis of the record keeping of the project.

On an annual basis, the implementer has to submit a performance and a regularity audit report and the terms of reference for this is provided to ensure that the report addresses all the deliverables as per the business plan as well as general governance issues.

On completion of the project, the implementer has to submit a performance and a regularity audit completion audit report and the terms of reference for this is provided to ensure that the report addresses all the deliverables as per the business plan as well as general governance issues.

Norms & Standard Systems for

Projects – An Introduction

Developed for Government use in the Expanded Public

Works Program for Social Responsibility Projects –

Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism (DEAT)

Introduction

Norms and standards for buildings were initially developed for Government in the middle seventies when

the cost of projects necessitated a system whereby funds could be allocated to projects based on the

needs that were identified and to ensure the equality in the distribution of funds to projects of similar

nature.

Since then, various norm systems were developed with the same goal as to determine a certain

amount for a building or a function to satisfy a specific need.

The functioning of a norm system is based on a Planning Unit (PU), an area norm and a cost norm. A

Planning Unit (PU) is defined as the primary unit in which the need for the project can be expressed. For

example a school is build for learners, a hospital for patients, an office block for staff, etc. Based on the

PU, an area is then allocated to make provision for the functioning of the specific task and a cost is

allocated to the area. Through this methodology an area and a cost can then be allocated to the PU.

Through the Expanded Public Works Program (EPWP), the Department of Environmental Affairs and

Tourism (DEAT) is currently implementing various projects in South Africa. The main focus of the EPWP

is to provide temporary employment and a transfer of skill in the implementation of these projects. The

projects implemented through DEAT focuses on improving the environment and promoting tourism whilst

adhering to the goals and objectives of the EPWP.

The EPWP's goal is to alleviate unemployment for a minimum of one million people (60% women, 30%

youth and 2% disabled) by the year 2009. This is being done by delivering government services to

communities in a labour-intensive manner, resulting in opportunities for unemployed people to obtain a

combination of work experience and training.

The following EPWP criteria have been used in determining the norms:

1. 30% of the budget must be utilized for community wages

2. 30% of training days must be accredited training

3. At least 9% of temporary job days must be utilized for training (average of 2 training days per

person per month)

4. At least 10% of workers must be provided with an exit opportunity in the form of a permanent

job or a further training opportunity

5. A greater emphasis on learnerships and skills programmes



27

Definitions

The following definitions outline the meaning of the terms used in a

Norms and Standards System:

Planning Unit – a PU is defined as the unit that is available to be

assigned to an activity or is the reason why the activity or function

exists. A PU is the central cause of the reason for the existence of the project or as a secondary

function, will give a basis of measurement.

If a PU cannot be determined around the true function that causes the facility to be provided, it could then

be determined around the secondary effect of the function, e.g. a PU for a road should be the number,

frequency and type of road users travelling on the road to determine what type of road to provide but the

2development of the norms and standards can also evolve around the m area of road or km of road to be

provided. The same would apply to a lodge where the primary PU can be a visitor (assuming a pre-

determined occupancy rate) or the secondary PU (function) will be expressed as the provision of a bed

according to a certain area and cost.

The “bed” will then be regarded as the PU to plan and execute the project, whilst the occupancy rate,

number of visitors, seasonal fluctuations, cost structures and operations will determine the sustainability

of the project.

The Norms and Standard System for the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism is not

2developed as a need norm, but as an initial starting point, only a 'facilities' norm, e.g. area and cost per m

2of buildings, cost per km of coast cleaning, m of paving, % implementers fee for the project, etc.


Chapter

Area / space and facility norms

2 2 3Area, space and facilities norms will be expressed as assignable m or gross m , m or meter length. The

2main difference is that in a building, an assignable m is only the functional area measured from the inside

2of the walls whilst gross m is expressed as the area measured from the outside of the external walls.

The existing norm systems currently use both the above methods of measurement.

2In the DEAT Norm System, the building facilities' area norm is expressed as assignable m (ASM)

because of the following reasons:

1. It is easy to express a building or facility in terms of functional area because it is the area available

to be utilised by the planning units.

2. The more efficient and effective the design of a building, the more functional area will be provided

and thus the better value for money. It limits the designers to provide as less as possible “Non-

ASM” areas.

3. It is easy to measure and therefore to monitor.

4. Annexure A provides guidelines for the measurement of buildings and the classification of

different area types. The drawings are obtained from the SAPSE-norm system (South African

Post Secondary Education).

Other area and space norm facilities like parking, paving, roads, fences alien vegetation removal, etc. will

2 3 be expressed as gross areas, i.e. meter / km length / m , m or hectares.

Cost norms

Cost norms consist of the following elements, namely:

1. Cost Units

2. Standard Cost Units

3. Cost Unit Factors

A Cost Unit (CU) is the monetary cost of the erection of the facility at a specific date. Example: a Tourist

2Lodge cost R3 000 per m to construct in April 2004. It is important to express the cost unit at a specific

date, as the amount for the same facility would vary from other dates due to cost inflation / escalation.



29

A Standard Cost Unit (SCU) is a fixed value determined at the base date of the SCU and an Index /

Indices are used to quantify the value of the SCU at a future / past date from the base date.

Example: The value of an SCU in November 1989 is R1, 964.73 (VAT excl) with an Index value of 550.0.

If it is a construction related project, the BER Building Cost Indices are used to determine the escalation

fluctuations for a specific date as well as the value of the SCU for that date.

A Cost Unit Factor (CUF) is the ratio calculated when the CU is divided by the SCU at the same date.

This value of the CUF will remain standard, as any estimation of future values will be calculated by

applying the Indices to quantify the value of the cost unit (CU) at the required date.

Other indices can also be used to escalate different types of items.

A CUF is thus the “cost” of a facility relative to the value of a SCU at a specific date.

BER Building Cost Index Table

The BER building cost index is obtainable from the Bureau for Economic Research in Stellenbosh or for

government projects at the Department of Public Works.

An outline of the indices from January 2002 to December 2009 is attached as Annexure B (Table 2b:

revised 18 April 2005).

The latest version is to be used when the cost norms are quantified.

Escalation

Escalation of projects can be divided between pre-tender escalation and post-tender escalation.

Pre-tender escalation is depending on market conditions and reflects the changes in tender prices whilst

post-tender escalation measures the fluctuations in the different cost components of the project.

The pre-escalation of a project is based on the BER building cost index. The EPWP projects from the

Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism are not adjusted for pre- or post-tender escalation, as it

is all fixed price contracts. The Implementers of the projects must take post-tender escalation into

consideration when planning and executing the projects.



30

Cash Flow

The cash flow of a project is an important aspect in the management of projects and the optimal utilisation

of funds. Because no pre- or post-tender escalation is provided for in the EPWP projects, it would mean

that the slower the expenditure on a project, the higher the cost would be for the same items at a later

date, due to escalation. Whilst the labour fee is usually fixed, material, plant and equipment escalates

during the construction / project period. This is especially important for projects with duration over a year.

Cash flow also gives an indication of the progress of a project and advanced calculations (earned value

methodology) can be used to determine over expenditure and compliance to the project time frame.

Example 1

The CUF of a 2,4m high predator proof fence is 5.663 CUF per kilometer. In order to estimate the project

cost of a 90km fence in December 2006 (Index value 2,431.5), the CUF of 5.663 is multiplied with the

distance of 90km to determine the total number of Standard Cost Units (SCU's) – 509.67 SCU's.

The project estimates is calculated by taking the total number of SCU's and multiply it with the value of an

SCU in December 2006. (Rand value in December 2006 = R9,901.92).

The project estimate is therefore 509.67 SCU's x R9,901.92 = R5 046 711.57 (or R56.07/meter).

Example 2

The following deliverables are set for a project (implementation to start January 2006):

· 20 Bed rondavel type cultural lodge (10 x 2-bed).

· Restaurant and kitchen area for 20 people.

· Parking for 10 vehicles.

The norms will generate the following area and cost limits:

Area

31

Cost

Total cost of buildings in Rand value of January 2006 = 179.08 x value of a SCU (R9 512.60) = R1

703 516.

Parking - Area

Cost

Total cost of parking in Rand value of January 2006 = 7.38 x value of a SCU (R9 512.60) = R70 203.

Total Project Cost = R1 703 516 + R70 203 = R1 773 719.

Total Project Area = 279.40 ASM buildings and 180m2 paving.

Factors taken into account in determining the norms

Project cost

The project cost will consist of allocation for material, wages, plant and equipment and preliminary and

general cost necessary for the execution of the project. A minimum labour allocation is set at 30% but can

be more, depending on the type of project. Certain projects like alien vegetation removal, wetland

rehabilitation and coast cleaning are more labour intensive than other projects. The cost norms

differentiate the various allowances of costs between the project categories.

Administration cost

An allowance for the administrative cost for the implementer is given and include for report writing, typing,

duplicating, transport cost, telephone, etc. for the Implementer to successfully manage the project. This

allowance is capped at a maximum of 6% of total project cost.

Training cost

An integral part of EPWP projects is the training provision in order to ensure a transfer of skills in the

process of project execution. The allowance for training averages 5% of total project cost. Training must

also focus on skills transfer and the guideline for training is 60% technical skills based and 40% life skills

based. Accredited training guidelines are set at 30% accredited training and 70% non-accredited

training. The Department of Labour is offering training courses that include basic life-skills and labour

market information to workers on EPWP projects.

Implementers fee

The Implementer's fee is set at 7% of total project cost. This allowance is a maximum fee for the

successful management of the project.


Chapter

3


33

Professional fee

The Professional fee is set at 6% of total project cost. This allowance is a fee for professional

services for the planning of the project as well as services needed during implementation.

The total cost for the implementer's fee and short-term professional fees may not exceed 13% of the project cost. Should the project require short-term professional fees in excess of 6%, the implementer's fees will have to be reduced. The allocation for the implementer may however not exceed 7% if the 6% professional fees are not fully utilized.

Materials and equipment

The allowance for material and equipment is project type specific and makes provision for these items

to be acquired for the project.

Transport

This allowance provides for the transportation of workers to and from the project site as well as for

transportation for materials and equipment.

Wages – SPWP

This cost category makes provision for wages to be paid to SPWP workers as defined in the

Government Gazette.

Non-SPWP salaries

This category makes provision for all salaries and wages payable to non-SPWP-wages.

Marketing

Marketing material, brochures, events, etc. are included in this allowance.

Community facilitation

This makes provision for community facilitation that is required on the project.



34

Classification of Projects in the Norms & Standard System

Projects are classified in the following 3 major categories:

1. Infrastructure Projects

2. Livelihood Projects

3. Environmental Improvement Projects

The sub-classification of the projects are further broken down into another level:

1. Infrastructure

1.1. Infrastructure services

1.2. Buildings

2. Livelihood projects

2.1. Livelihood projects

2.2. Tourism

2.3. Waste

3. Environmental Improvement

3.1. Greening the Environment

3.2. Rehabilitation of the environment

3.3. Coastal cleaning

The reason and rationale for the above classification is the combining of similar types of projects together

that would necessitate similar specialist knowledge. Infrastructure projects focuses on engineering type

of projects, sustainable projects on continued operation after DEAT funding has expired and

environmental projects on environmental impact issues.

The norm system is however developed with the flexibility that certain aspects from any of the categories

be used in conjunction with the other. One literally builds up one's own project and is not limited to a single

application. This is the reason why all costs are expressed in Cost Unit Factors.

The above classification is also not set in “boxes” but is developed with cross-referencing, cross-

utilization and inter-usage in mind. The system is flexible and projects can be re-classified as the need

PROJECT CLASSIFICATION

36

The following tables with the functional Area or Unit and Cost norms are only summaries of the calculations used to determine these norms. The details are kept at the Directorate: Quality Management.

It is important to note that the Cost Unit Factors are all-inclusive and makes provision for all costs;

Implementers fee / professional fee / administration fee, training, project labour and material cost,

etc.

The cost norm is a guide that is provided to benchmark the different project types. It is only provided

to give an estimate of what a function could cost and the implementer is responsible for the detail

costing and planning of the project. If the variance from the norm is greater than 25%, an evaluation

should then be done into the feasibility of the different options available to the implementer. All

deliverables must still be provided in the total budget.

These norms are guidelines only and can be implemented with modifications after consultation with

DEAT.

Conclusion

The development of the norms and standards in this manual is the first step to formalize the deliverables

that Implementers must provide in terms of the Memorandum of Agreement (MoA). It will assist all parties

concerned with planning, monitoring, controlling and evaluation of the deliverables of the projects, as

guidelines in terms of area; cost and level of specification will be prescribed to each project.

As norms and standards are benchmarks and guidelines to how big a project must be, how much it will

cost and what level of need satisfaction must be provided, it is also a method of showing where variances

to the norm and standard occurs. Remedial action can be taken pro-actively or could be a base to show

specific deviations in the project's uniqueness.

The Norms and Standard System will be updated, evaluated and reviewed regularly as it is a dynamic

system that needs the inputs from all parties concerned.
