    NATIONAL CONTRACTOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME (NCDP)

    Introduction

    There is a compelling need to elevate development of previosly disadvantaged individals and enterprises, and leadership

    by government is reqired to establish the framework for the development of previosly disadvantages individals and

    enterprises. This framework will stimlate the role of indstry and stakeholders for meaningfl empowerment and improved

    contractor performance.

    The NCDP is a government programme comprising of a partnership between the cidb, national and provincial pblic works

    and other willing stakeholders, in which the participating stakeholders:

    • Commit their resorces to develop previosly disadvantaged contractors; and

    • Align their individal contractor development programmes or initiatives with the principles set ot in the NCDP

    framework, meeting both the objectives of the NCDP and their own service delivery objectives.

    Dening Contractor Development:

     A deliberate and managed process to achieve targeted developmental otcomes that improves contractor:

    • Grading stats

    • Performance and qality

    • Eqity and targeted ownership

    OBJECTIVES

    The objective of the NCDP is to promote eqity ownership across the different contracting categories and grades, as well

    as improving skills and performance in the delivery and maintenance of capital works across the pblic sector.

    To achieve this objective, participants within the NCDP will:

    • Increase the nmber of black, women, disabled, and yoth-owned companies in targeted categories and grades -

    increasing the representatively of contractors in all categories and grades;

    • Improve the grading stats of previosly disadvantaged contractors in targeted categories and grades;

    • Improve the performance of previosly disadvantaged contractors in terms of qality, employment practices, skills

    development, safety, health and the environment; and

    • Improve the bsiness management and technical skills of these contractors.

    The key principles which nderpin the NCDP are smmarised below:• Government and its entities and partnerships, as well as any role player may se procrement of infrastrctre in

    order to achieve contractor development;

    • A CDP will enrol contractors based on clearly dened entry criteria, and will provide targeted developmental spport

    so as to achieve clearly dened developmental otcomes; and

    • Contractors will enter the programme based on predened criteria and will receive spport to enable contractors

    to eit the programme on the basis of achieving predened criteria relating to skills, qalications, certication,

    sstainability, qality, etc. (The programme mst give attention to ensre avoidance of a ‘dependency syndrome’).

    BACKGROUND

    The National Department of Pblic Works (NDPW) has provided leadership in contractor development since the inception of

    the democratic government in 1994. Initially, NDPW established the Emerging Contractor Development Programme (ECDP)

    to advance entry for primarily black contractors into the constrction indstry throgh direct government contracting. The

    Epanded Pblic Works Programme was later conceptalised by Cabinet, primarily to enhance job creation in the pblic

    sector, bt at the same time afforded government the opportnity to enhance its contractor development initiatives throgh

    the V’kphile Programme.

    Both the ECDP and V’kphile Programmes are primarily skills development programmes based and implemented throgh a

    learnership programme. At the same time NDPW conceptalised the Contractor Incbator Programme (based on principles

    of advanced enterprise development), to shift the contractor development focs from small contracts to more sbstantial

    contracts and to higher levels of contracting.

    Several other government departments and constrction indstry role players/ stakeholders also have their own contractor

    development programmes. Lessons learnt from some of these programmes are discssed in the cidb report of March 2009

    on the Stats Qo analysis of Contractor Development Programmes in Soth Africa as well as the cidb 2011 Baseline Stdy

    of Provincial CDP’s.

     Althogh some of these programmes share the same principles, government does not have a consistent and co-ordinated

    approach to contractor development, and hence the need for the NCDP and gidelines to be contained within it.

    The Constrction Indstry Development Board (cidb) is mandated throgh the Constrction Indstry Development Board

     Act 38 of 2000 to spport contractor development and participation of the emerging sector. Specically, MINMEC reqested

    the National DPW to work closely with the cidb in collaboration with the Provincial Departments of Pblic Works to devisea framework and implement the NCDP.

    This framework establishes the parameters for implementation by the National and Provincial Departments of Pblic Works

    and the cidb in their provision of leadership and spport to the pblic sector and other stakeholders in the development of

    previosly disadvantaged contractors.

    Led by the Minister of Pblic Works and the Provincial MEC’s, the NCDP is geared at enhancing capacity and promoting

    eqity ownership across the different contracting categories and grades, as well as improving skills and performance in the

    delivery and maintenance of capital works across the pblic sector.

    The NCDP seeks to bild on the progress of the past, inclding:

    • The achievements of preferential procrement, now evident throgh the cidb Register of Contractors;

    • Improving pblic sector procrement capacity nder the impact of the reform roll-ot of the cidb;

    • The reglatory framework established by the Register of Contractors and Register of Projects - that provides

    information to spport targeted development interventions and to measre progress;

    • The learning from a range of development programmes arond the contry;

    • The framework for the cidb Best Practice Contractor Recognition Scheme - that sets desirable standards and

    competencies that are deemed to be necessary for rnning a sstainable contracting enterprise;

    • The framework for the cidb Best Practice Project Assessment Scheme – which, amongst others, establishes project

    best practices that spport skills and contractor development; and

    • The adoption of the Constrction Charter and the transformation charters of other sectors, providing a platform for

    meaningfl pblic and private sector inpt.

    CONTRACTOR DEVELOPMENT COMPONENTS

    The varios components of contractor development addressed by the NCDP is illstrated in the following Figre, and

    discssed in the following sections. Specically, contractor development comprises several components, inclding:

    • New entrants (or start-ps);

    • Enterprises development; and

    • Performance improvement.

    cidb Grade Contractor Development Component

    9 Performance Improvement

    Enterprise Development

    2 Contractor Learnerships

    1. Contractor Learnerships -  incorporate the development of emerging contractor start-ps, and will target cidb

    grade 1 to 3 contractors. Typically, in terms of a Capability Matrity Model, the processes within an emerging sector

    start-p can be characterised as ad hoc, and occasionally even chaotic. Few processes are dened, and sccess

    depends on isolated effort (i.e EPWP and other learnerships which are not herein addressed).

    Key instrments which will be sed within the NCDP will be learnerships within Contractor Development Programmes

    (CDPs), predominantly incorporating mentorship in which the developing contractor learns the basic bsiness and

    constrction components of contracting. This stage will target the cidb grade 2 and 3 contractors. Within the CDPs,

    bdget will be allocated to ensre sstainable work for the learner contractors.

    2. Enterprise Development  - in which the enterprises start growing, developing markets for their services, epandtheir workforce, epand their areas of operation, accmlate capital for ftre growth, epand their plant and

    eqipment and bsiness and technical systems. This stage will target the cidb grade 2 to 6 contractors who ehibit

    potential to grow and develop.

      In terms of a Capability Matrity Model, the processes can be characterized as repeatable to dened , namely:

    • Basic project management processes are established and repeatable; the necessary process discipline is in

    place to repeat sccesses on previos projects (Level 2); to

    • The processes for all activities are docmented, standardised, and integrated into the organization; all

    projects se an approved, tailored version of the contractor’s standard process (Level 3).

      Key instrments which will be sed will be strctred developmental spport provided within CDP’s or throgh a

    strctred relationship with an established contractor. The developmental spport provided will be gided by the

    competence standards set by the cidb Best Practice Contractor Recognition Scheme.

    3. Performance Improvement - in which the established enterprise introdces best practice systems for health and

    safety, qality management, environmental management, etc. in order to improve their performance. This stage will

    target the cidb grade 4 to 7 contractors who ehibit potential to develop.

      In terms of a Capability Matrity Model, the processes can be characterized as managed to optimised , namely:

    • Detailed measres of the processes and prodct qality are collected; both the processes and prodcts are

    qantitatively nderstood and controlled; to

    • Continos process improvement is enabled by sing feedback from the processes to pilot innovative ideas

    and technologies; contractors are consciosly aware of their spply chain and get involved in the spplychain development.

      Key instrments sed will typically be strctred procrement-driven relationships specifying developmental spport to

    the targeted developing contractors that is aligned with the cidb Best Practice Contractor Recognition Scheme.

     INSTRUMENTS FOR CONTRACTOR DEVELOPMENT

    Bilding on government’s procrement of infrastrctre, varios instrments will be sed within the NCDP to spport

    contractor development, inclding:

    • Contractor Development Programmes (CDPs): A CDP is dened within the NCDP as an entity that is established for

    the prpose of providing developmental spport to contractors. Contractors who participate within CDPs receive

    strctred developmental spport which is targeted to achieve predetermined developmental objectives.

    Work opportnities are typically provided throgh direct contracts with the developing contractors within the CDP.

    Strctred developmental spport cold be provided by the government instittion that is providing the work

    opportnities, or cold be otsorced to a developmental instittion.

      Sch models are referred to within the NCDP as “direct targeting” .

    • Procurement driven developmental outcomes: A frther key instrment that will be sed for contractor development

    is procrement models that target developmental spport and developmental otcomes to developing contractors.

    Sch procrement models cold be:

    o Legislated, throgh, for eample, the cidb Best Practice Project Assessment Scheme; or

    o Adopted throgh a department’s internal policy formlation processes.

    In sch an approach the developmental spport is provided by a main contractor to a JV partner or sb-contractor.

      Sch models are referred to within the NCDP as “indirect targeting” .

    In addition to the specic contractor development instrments otlined above, the NCDP will address and enabling

    environment  reqired for contractor development.

    KEY SUCCESS FACTORS FOR CONTRACTOR DEVELOPMENT

    There are a nmber of factors which shold be in place for sccessfl contractor development, both on the

    demand and spply side, as well as for contractor development throgh CDPs and throgh procrement-driven

    models. Key sccess factors for CDPs are given below – many of which cold also apply to procrement-

    driven models with developmental otcomes.

    Key Success Factors for Contractor Development

    Demand Side Measures

    • Continos and protable work opportnities to learners / contractors\.

    • Procrement strategies and development mechanism to target learners and contractors with continity of work.

    • Appropriate contract conditions addressing spportive practices regarding sreties, Good practice elements that

    garantees, retention policies, etc.

    • Prompt payment of contractors for work completed satisfactorily.

    • Client reporting to cidb on Contractor Development initiatives and their varios contribtions.

    Supply Side Measures

    • Appropriate contract management and qality assrance oversight is provided by the departments rnning the

    CDPs.

    • Contractors have access to nances for working capital.

    • Contractors have appropriate bsiness and technical capability and capacity.

    • Contractors have access to an appropriately skilled workforce.

    • Contractors have access to cost effective, qality plant and eqipment.

    • Contractors have access to information and technology.

    CONTRACTOR DEVELOPMENT GOOD PRACTICE

    Development of contractors shold be a well-planned operation that involves commitment of nancial and hman resorces

    which incldes the availability of adeqate time to manage the programme. Sch resorces cold be provided directly

    throgh strctred pblic or private sector CDPs together with direct preference models (direct targeting), or indirectly

    throgh a procrement model with targeted development otcomes (indirect targeting).

    Good practice elements that contractor development activities within the NCDP will need to incorporate in order to ensre

    that contractor development aligns with the NCDP tenets are otlined below for direct and indirect targeting.

    1. Common Elements:  Good practice elements that are common to both direct targeting (CDPs) and to indirect

    targeting methods are smmarized below:

    i. Government or stakeholders will se their procrement of infrastrctre in order to achieve contractor

    development.

    ii. The focs of contractor development mst relate to components of the NCDP as dened in Section 4.

    iii. Only cidb registered contractors may participate within these initiatives.

    iv. Contractors to receive development spport mst be assessed to determine their development potential

    and needs.

    v. Development spport mst be strctred to achieve measrable improvements (e.g. NQF level or

    improvement in contractor grading).

    vi. Appropriate skills transfer and/or training (theoretical and/or on-site, together with qality control of sch

    training) mst be provided.

    vii. Clients and stakeholders mst report on contractor development initiatives to the cidb sing prescribed

    reporting mechanisms.

    2. Contractor Development Programmes: In addition to the good practice elements described in Item 1, good

    practice elements within CDPs (direct targeting) inclde:

    i. A transparent selection process mst be adopted for entrance to the CDP based on predetermined criteria.

    ii. Targets mst be determined for bdget allocation, nmber of projects and nmber of contractors to bedeveloped to ensre continity of appropriate work for the dration of involvement within a CDP.

    iii. Sfcient in-hose or otsorced capacity for the management of the CDP mst be ensred.

    iv. Eit from a CDP mst be based on predetermined criteria (e.g. a specied timeframe).

    Many of these good practice elements of a well-strctred CDP are illstrated in the following gre:

    3. Procurement driven developmental outcomes:  In addition to the good practice elements described in Item

    1, good practice elements within procrement models with targeted development otcomes (indirect targeting)

    inclde:

    i. The reqirements for developmental spport and nomination of the developing contractor shall be specied

    in the contract between the client and the main contractor.

    ii. A project specic development program with milestones and a schedle of activities mst be developed for

    the developing contractor.

    iii. Verication that the development programme was sbstantially achieved mst take place at the end of the

    contract.

    iv. Failre by the main contractor to comply with the contract reqirements for developmental spport shall be

    recorded on cidb Contractor Performance Reports that will be reqired to be sbmitted by the client to the

    cidb on practical completion of the project. Sch information can then be sed on ftre tenders for the

    prpose of:• Assessing the sitability of contractors for registration, pre-qalication, selective tender lists or

    epressions of interest; and/or

    • Adjdication for the award of a contract.

    Reqirements and gidelines for indirect targeting are to be developed by the cidb.

    8. FOCUS AREAS OF THE NCDP

    Based on the overview given in the preceding sections, the NCDP will focs on the following strategies:

    8.1 Establishment of an Enabling Environment for Contractor Development

    This strategy will focs on establishing an enabling environment which will nderpin the development of contractors and

    will inclde:

    • Partnering between the provincial Departments of Pblic Works and the cidb to establish and operate Constrction

    Contact Centres (CCC’s) in the provinces;

    • Facilitating access to nance for contractors;

    • Facilitating prompt payment of contractors;

    • Provision of appropriate contracting conditions which will spport contractor development;

    • Facilitating mechanisms that promote skills development by providing for workplace training of interns and p-

    skilling of company employees in programmes that reslt in nationally accredited otcomes, sch as, learnerships

    and accredited skills programmes, and internships for professional candidacy.

    • Client reporting to cidb on Contractor Development initiatives and their varios contribtions, for co-ordination and

    identication of areas for spport.

    There are a host of responsibilities for client infrastrctre departments and varios stakeholders and roles players

    responsible for delivering Contractor Development Programmes or spporting contractor and enterprise development.

    To frther spplement this NCDP framework, and to provide a ‘how to’ implementation spport plan for implementing

    clients, departments or stakeholders, the cidb has also compiled ‘Gidelines for Implementing Contractor Development

    Programmes’.

    Each will have to co-ordinate their respective contribtions to the NCDP, and will allocate and mobilise their resorces

    towards aligning to their strategies, which in trn will align to the NCDP.

    To this end, the cidb ‘Contractor Development Strategy’, in spport of the NCDP, is reected herein, and is contained within

    the shaded tet boes, as the cidb responsibilities and commitments to the NCDP. Annere 3 and varios previos stats

    and baseline reports also provide pointers on strategizing for Contractor Development.

    In support of developing an enabling environment for contractor development, the cidb will:

    • Coordinate and facilitate contractor spport initiatives available from government and other Indstry stakeholders;

    • Manage the CCC’s and provide staff to provide services to contractors, inclding:

    o contractor registration and pgrading services;

    o access to appropriate gidelines and tools;

    o access to information

    • Develop standard generic tendering and contract docmentation;

    • Facilitate access to nance for registered contractors;

    • (Bilding on the work done by Pblic Works) develop / consolidate gidelines on a balanced approach to sreties

    and retentions, for incorporation in contracts, providing options to registered contractors and improved cash ow

    management;

    • Promoting skills development; and

    • Facilitate client reporting to cidb on Contractor Development initiatives and their varios contribtions, for

    co-ordination and identication of areas for frther spport.

    8.2 Contractor Development Programmes

    This strategy will focs on the development of contractors within strctred CDPs, enabling contractors to gain the

    necessary competence, eperience, track record and nancial capital.

    This strategy will inclde the alignment and, where necessary, development of CDPs incorporating:

    • Learnerships, targeting emerging contractor start-ps (typically cidb grade 2 and 3 contractors); and

    • Enterprises development spport (targeting, typically, the cidb grade 2 to 6 contractors).

    Participating stakeholders will commit work opportnities to the CDPs, together with resorces for training and mentoring.

    In order to facilitate the alignment and implementation of these contractor development mechanisms the

    cidb will:

    • Package (from the Registers) and make available relevant information on capacity linked to demand and eisting

    spply, and provide gidelines for targeting strategies;

    • Develop gidelines which CDPs need to comply with as being part of the NCDP, covering assessment/selection

    of contractors, training and skills development, spport mechanisms, accreditation of training providers andmentors, fnding reqirements and access to work opportnities, as well as accreditation of contractors on

    eiting the programmes; and

    • Develop and pilot competence reqirements and reqirements for constrction management systems throgh

    the cidb Best Practice Contractor Recognition Scheme which set the basis for standards for which CDPs shold

    develop contractors to.

    8.3 Procurement Driven Developmental Outcomes

    This strategy will focs on the development of contractors throgh procrement models with targeted development

    otcomes (indirect targeting), in which skills transfer and development spport is provided by a main contractor to a ci db

    registered sb-contractor.

    This strategy will inclde the alignment and, where necessary, development of CDPs incorporating:

    • Enterprises development spport (targeting, typically, the cidb grade 2 to 6 contractors); and

    • Improving the bsiness performance and constrction performance of contractors (targeting, typically, the cidb

    grade 4 to 7 contractors)

    In support of the above, the cidb will:

    • Develop and pilot the cidb Best Practice Contractor Recognition Scheme  and the Best Practice Project

     Assessment Scheme;

    • Develop gidelines for preferencing best practice contractors.

    KEY STAKEHOLDERS

     A variety of stakeholders will be involved within the NCDP based pon their willingness to commit appropriate resorces to

    spport the NCDP. These stakeholders will be provincially co-ordinated via Contractor Development Forms, representative

    of CD practitioners and stakeholders within the respective provinces. These CD Fora will be the platform for information

    echange and sharing, provincial statistics reporting, consolidation and monitoring.

    Organisations both pblic sector and private sector that are willing to sbscribe to the NCDP and commit resorces inclde:

    • cidb  – overall programme management and provision of good practice gides, contractor grading statistics,

    contractor registration, facilitation of access to information throgh the Constrction Contact Centers, co-ordination

    of Provincial CD Fora. It is important to note that the W does not provide nance, training nor projects to contractors;

    • National Public Works –  lead department within the “family of pblic works”, implementation of contractor

    development and alignment of ECDP to NCDP, with the EPWP focsing on job creation and learnerships, as well as

    accessing of fnding for grade 1 development;

    • Provincial Public Works – crrent and new contractor development programmes aligned to the NCDP;

    • Private sector contractor associations and established enterprises – contractor and skills development throgh

    training, mentoring, etc.;

    • CETA – skills development;

    • Banks and nancing organisations – nancing of working capital, insrance and performance garantees for

    contractors;

    • Other stakeholders – willing to commit resorces and spport.

    MONITORING AND EVALUATION

    10.1 Monitoring and Reporting

     A monitoring and reporting system will be established for the NCDP by the cidb in collaboration with NDPW in order to be

    able to monitor achievement of the otpts and gage these against the targets set. The departments participating withinthe NCDP will be reqired to record participating developing contractors, register projects and complete docments on

    time in order to spport the monitoring system. This reporting will occr provincially and be channeled to the MEC’s, HoD’s,

    NCDP Steering Committee and Provincial CD Form meetings.

    10.2 Evaluation

    Evalation of national and provincial CDP’s and the NCDP are considered an essential element to provide feedback and

    lessons that can be etracted so that the programme can be periodically modied and rened. Reviews of the programme

    will be ndertaken jointly by the cidb and NDPW and dring the programme implementation, pilot benchmarking and

    reviews will be ndertaken either as an isse arises or to nderstand a particlar focs area/sector/component. Lessons

    learnt will be docmented and pblicized, and promoted via practice notes and gidelines, to assist gide Provincial

    implementing agents and CDP’s.
