| description | This paper investigates the depth and extent to which the National Department of Public
Works NDPW) is transforming within the Built Environment, relative to the social, economic, political,
historical, gender, legal and equity spheres. Transformation is one of the most critical aspects of effective
strategic management and the South African government, through the (NDPW), is committed to facilitating
delivery by other departments by providing accommodation and property management services and
meeting the objectives of poverty alleviation and transformation. In 2003 the Department formulated a new
vision, mission and value statements to demonstrate the Department’s and its employees’ serious
commitment to Government’s vision of a better life for all the country’s citizens.
The (NDPW) aims to promote the government’s objectives of economic development, good
governance and rising living standards and prosperity by providing and managing the
accommodation, housing, land and infrastructure needs of national departments, by promoting
the national Expanded Public Works Programme and by encouraging the transformation of the
construction and property industries. In pursuance of this objective the Department will endeavour
to efficiently manage the asset life cycle of immovable assets under the Department’s
custodianship, provide expert advice to all three spheres of Government and parastatals on
immovable assets, contribute to the national goals of job creation and poverty alleviation through
the coordination of public works programmes nationally, of which the Expanded Public Works
Programme (EPWP) and National Youth Service (NYS) forms an integral part; and provides
strategic leadership to the Construction and Property Industries. |
