A development programme for the construction industry to enable the principal contractor to deliver the project on time, as specified and within budget by subscribing to a comprehensive and intensive Scientific based Accelerated Corporate Development Progamme for each of its sub-contractors.
It is driven by a dynamic strategy for the swift and enthusiastic acceptance of the process for the development of skills and business practices for each of its sub-contractors.
The patented process creates a win-win scenario for all participants and is totally self-sustainable.
It starts by following an authoritative process of ensuring compliance and proficiency followed by assistance for continuous improvement by 24/7 monitoring and evaluation of individual performance on specific construction process according to official Unit Standards, measured against statistically correct benchmarks leading to dedicated skills, business and personal development for performance improvement according to dedicated Performance Improvement Proposals.
Steps are taken for total community buy-in so that community members embrace the project with emotional and social ownership of the project. It becomes “their project” and will guard it with their lives because of the meaningful, visible and quantified benefits each of them experience even before the commencement of the project.
THE Q5 PROFESSIONAL PROCUREMENT DECISONS PROGRAMME
When good people do nothing, bad people run wild.
Good people had enough of the prevailing darkness as demonstrated by the diverse positive outreaches and multiple civil actions all over South Africa, the Continent of Africa and other democratic countries.
Each of us, being the bearers of the Light, is part of the solution. Let us be known as restorers, rebuilders - those who make the community livable again (Isiah 58:12).
This Smart Procurement Solutions Programme is but one demonstration of how good people could take back control. The link below explains more of the total strategy.
PREAMBLE
1. FOR THE SAKE OF GOOD GOVERNANCE, PROFESSIONAL PROCUREMENT PRACTICES ARE IMPERATIVE
Buyers depend on suppliers over whose performance they have almost no control. Yet suppliers directly affect costs and service delivery. We will show how buyers, even without procurement expertise, could make better procurement decisions than so-called “experts”.
1. A Dynamic Enterprise & Government Development Process is critical. Therefore, the Programme offers:
A development programme with (1) significant benefits to buying organizations; (2) the personal development of staff in the procurement department; (3) with benefits accruing to its total supply line, (4) individuals working for these supplying enterprises; and (5) communities that are being affected by service delivery - all people benefit.
1. Our presentation will explain and demonstrate that:
1. Our compliance process is thorough, comprehensive, and updated regularly - far superior to the current government compliance procedure.
2. We establish true supplier proficiency – an intensive process leading to an authoritative and legitimate database of suppliers, indicating their true competence based on their track record.
3. We help to refine specific performance standards for Service Level Agreements.
4. Our monitoring process (even six and 12 months after completion) builds up a history of performance. It evaluates sustainability of work for compiling a track record of their performance versus their quoted cost. Cost related to Performance is a vital tool for development.
5. We compile a Professional Procurement Decision Tool for procurement departments. It allows even a novice (within minutes) to make a more informed buying decision than experienced procurers when they use conventional methods.
6. All procurement decisions are completely justifiable and transparent. The science behind it leaves no room for bribery and corruption.
9. We place a strong emphasis on skills development and the unlocking of human potential for both buyers and suppliers – skills development works both ways.
The above creates a win-win scenario for all parties involved. It indeed leads to inclusive development – not a political slogan – but real Radical Economic Transformation because the Programme has substance. A substance that leads radically to cost-effectiveness, efficiency, skills development, profitability and sustainability – all of it translates to better service.
