development through partnership
Challenges in the current construction practice
To name a few:
• Too many projects
• Few people to manage and monitor projects
• Too many relationships to manage
• Scarcity of professionals in the public service
• Consultant driven
• Low skill levels and poor quality
• Building in contractor development and job
creation objectives
• Too little time
• Long decision making processes – regulations &
policies
• Stop – start implementation
• Political influences

Bottom line – infrastructure delivery
needs to meet expectations
Current capacity constraints
CIDB (2006) attributed the SA capacity constraints within
government to deliver infrastructure to:
• the project approach where for each and every project,
consultants are appointed, briefed, directed and overseen
by a gradually disappearing cadre of skilled staff
• unbundling strategies aimed at reducing the size of
contracts in order to target small or local enterprises
which place increased demands on the client’s resources
to manage and oversee these small contracts
CIDB proposal
CIDB inform practice note No 1: SCALING UP DELIVERY
AND ACCELERATING EMPOWERMENT (August 2006)
In a nutshell
• Use larger contracts
• Use longer contracts
• Adopt a programmatic and a systems approach
What this does is to:
1) Reduce the work load of the SCM units
2) Reduce the number of relationships to a manageable
level which frees up government’s capacity to brief
service provides, manage contracts and to make
payments
3) Allow skills to be rapidly replicated and certain tasks to
be de-skilled
4) Improve job creation and SMME development outcomes
Search for alternative delivery models
Problem statement
Capacity constraints exist due to the continued use of an
outdated delivery approach
Solution
Require a delivery model which:
CIDB / National
Treasury IDMS 2010
• matches the capabilities and capacities of the client to
effectively oversee its implementation
• takes account of the capabilities of the private sector
• accommodates current socio-economic delivery
imperatives
Have in place well developed targeted
procurement procedures to address
this aspect of delivery
Traditional approach to construction
Procurement strategy for traditional approach to delivery
-
One project one contract (or a group of smaller
contracts)
-
Discipline specific consultants appointed on a
percentage fee basis
-
Open tenders are called for when the design is
complete
-
Contractors are contracted on a bills of quantities
basis
No need to consider procurement
strategy – a one size fits all
approach suffices
Traditional approach to construction
Fee based on percentage of cost of
construction – allows project to be
developed as it unfolds

Traditional approach to construction
John Smeaton in 1768 during the construction of the Clyde
Canel (Scotland) established the master / servant
between designers and contractors
Sir Joseph Bazalgette’s standard form of contract for
London’s major sewer projects and the embankments on
the Thames 1860s was adopted by the Metropolitan Board
of Works
Institution of Civil Engineers’s standard form of contract
published in 1945 based on the 1860 standard form of
contract
South African current traditional forms of contract based on
ICE form of contract
Are their different ways of delivery projects to improve
outcomes?
Design by Employer
Contract under which a contractor undertakes only construction
on the basis of full designs issued by the employer.
Suitable where:
• The client wishes to make significant technical inputs into
design process and design details.
• The client requires flexibility in the development of the design.
• The risks are to be balanced between the parties, or
• Reasonable certainty in cost and time is required before a
commitment to build is made.
• Suitable client accepted production information is available to
be incorporated into the scope of work for the contract.

Design and Construct
Contract in which a contractor designs a project based on a
brief provided by the client and constructs it
Suitable where the employer requires
• Integrated design and construction and single point
accountability
• That most risks lie with the contractor in return for price
certainty, or
• The cost and completion date is almost guaranteed when a
commitment to build is made.
Suitable for simple and moderately complex projects,
particularly where the client has limited technical
capability.

and managing all post-contract activities
and for the performance of the whole of
the contract
Management Contract
Contract under which contractor provides consultation during
the design stage and is responsible for planning and
managing all post contract activities and for the performance
of the whole of the contract.
Suitable where:
• The employer has limited capability or capacity to advance
the work beyond a strategic brief.
• The employer retains most of the risks
• The contractor needs to work alongside the design team to
develop the programme for construction design and tender.
Suitable for sophisticated projects, particularly where the client
has limited technical capability.

Construction Management
Contract under which a contractor is responsible for
planning and managing all post-contract activities
and for the performance of the whole contract.
Where it is desirable to
• Have direct contracts with specialists trade
contractors or small contractors, and
• Manage the interfaces between interrelated
packages within a project.
• Suitable for projects where a number of trade
contractors are appointed.
Alternative pricing strategies
Starting point
Tender prices can be built up by considering a number of
components including:
• General items: items to cover the charges for
compliance with contractual obligations
• Construction (work) content: price of constructing all
the items that are to be constructed or built
• Overheads: operating (every day) expenses incurred in
the upkeep of the business and its offices that are not
directly attributable to individual contracts
• Risk allowance: an allowance (contingency) to cover
the perceived risk associated with uncertainty
• Profit

Bill of quantities
•
is useful only to develop a tender price for the contract
•
cannot be used to control costs on site
Bill of Quantities
• Client takes the risk for changes
• Contractor takes the risk of rate changes
• Use where
• a clear, unambiguous scope of works exists,
which is complete save for uncertainty on
the actual quantity of work to be done e.g.
earthworks
• Where little or no change to programme is
envisaged
• The level of risk is low and quantifiable

An Activity Schedule is a list of activities which represents
the activities expected to be carried out
The Contractor enters lump sum prices against each of
these activities (Total = contract sum)
Paid for completed activity
Lump sum
Lump
sum
Contractor is paid a lump sum to perform the
works
(Interim payments which reflect the progress
made towards the completion of the works
may be made)
Contractor is :
• at risk for costs associated with completing the contract
• not compensated for any errors or omissions of his own
Price list
Price list / Contractor is paid the price for each lump
schedule sum item in the Price List that has been
completed and, where a quantity is stated in
the Price List / Schedule, an amount
calculated by multiplying the quantity which
the contractor has completed by the rate
Contractor is only paid amounts in Price List for
priced work
Lump Sum, price list, activity schedule
Price-based strategy
• Contractor takes the risk for changes in quantities
• Client takes risk of change of scope
• Use where
• A clear, unambiguous scope of work exists, which is
complete in all respects and as such can be priced
with certainty.
• Changes to requirements are not anticipated
29
Bill of quantities vs other price-based
pricing strategies
The primary purpose of a bill of quantities is to arrive at a
tender price within relatively short time frames so that a
tender can be evaluated and a contract awarded
The employer is liable for increases in the tender price
arising from increases in quantities and mistakes in
compiling the bill of quantities
In lump sum, activity schedules and pricing list contractor
is at risk as price is all inclusive
What about other pricing strategies?
Price based:
•
•
•
•
bill of quantities
activity schedule
lump sum
price list
Cost based:
• cost reimbursable
• target cost
Cost Reimbursable
• Contract in which the contractor is paid for his
actual expenditure plus a percentage or fee.
• Use where an emergency exists
• the scope of work cannot be priced ahead of the
works
• the employer cannot transfer the project risk to the
contractor or the risk pricing is prohibitive
• the contract is likely to be disrupted by
uncontrollable events

Target Cost Pricing
• Cost reimbursable contract in which a target
cost is estimated and on completion of the
works the difference between the target cost
and the actual cost is apportioned between the
employer and contractor on an agreed basis.
• Use where:
• The employer wishes to reward strong contractor
performance, share financial risk or promote
collaboration
• An early contractor involvement is required to
make inputs into the design process
• Framework agreements are entered into
35
Target price contracts
Procurement of contractors
Option 1 (design is not sufficiently developed)
•
Tenderers tender cost parameters
•
Target price negotiated when sufficient information
available to price the works
Option 2 (design is sufficiently developed to price)
•
Tenderers tender cost parameters
•
Assumptions are made about any uncertainties so
that the tenderers can price the works (adjust target
if assumptions turn out to be incorrect e.g. quantum
of reinforcement)
•
Tenderer tenders a target price

Benefits of Target Cost Pricing
• Allows early contractor involvement
• Facilitates collaborative / partnering / developmental
relationships
• Suitable for use in framework agreements because:
− allows the employer to procure work on an asinstructed basis over a set term without
necessarily committing to any quantum of work
− offers flexibility in attaining secondary
procurement objectives as requirements can be
adjusted from one package order to another
39
Lean construction
To provide higher value and less waste the fragmentation
in design needs to be addressed, preferably before 25% of
the design is complete
Target cost contracts can enable this to happen even
where a design by employer approach is adopted
This allows a specialist in construction to be appointed
at the same time as the design team
Such a contractor may or may not be responsible for
managing the design team

What is a framework agreement?
ISO 10845-1, Construction procurement – Part 1:
Processes, methods and procedures
A framework agreement is an agreement between an
employer and one or more contractors, the purpose of
which is to establish the terms governing contracts to be
awarded during a given period, in particular with regard
to price and, where appropriate, the quantity envisaged
Allows the employer to procure construction services
to provide work packages on an as-instructed basis
(call offs) over a set term without necessarily committing
to any quantum of work
Current paradigm
Client appoints a professional team to design the works
Open tenders are called once the production information
has been finalised by the professional team
(production information = final detailing, performance
definition, specification, sizing and positioning of all systems
and components)
Contractor prices the production information
Contractors are contracted on a bills of quantity basis for a
single project (which may or may not include budgetary
items to cover aspects of the works which have not been
finalised)

Principles of Framework Agreements
Framework agreements
• are entered into following a competitive selection
process
• need to establish the following as a minimum:
-
the basic terms of the contract
the term of the contract (3 -4 years)
the scope of the work which may form the basis
of a package order
the basis by which contractors are to be
remunerated for instructed work
the manner in which competition between
framework contractors may take place
Essential elements of a framework
• A package is works within the scope of work of a
framework agreement which is instructed within a stated
period of time (start and end date)
• A package order is an instruction to carry out a task and
may only be issued within the term of the agreement

Outcomes of Alternative Delivery Approaches
FROM
TO
• Master-servant relationship of
adversity
• Fragmentation of design &
construction
• Allowing risks to take their
course
• Short-term “hit and run”
relationships
• Constructability & cost model
determined by design team
and consultant only
• “pay as you go” delivery
culture
• Collaboration towards shared
goals
• Integration of design and
construction
• Proactive, collaborative risk
management and mitigation
• Long-term relationships
focused on maximising
efficiency & shared value
• Constructability and cost
model developed with
contractor’s insight
• Discipline of continuous
budget control
48
Key question
Question:
How does one appoint a contractor in the absence of
a scope of work?
Answer:
Look at:
•
•
cost based pricing strategies as apposed to price
based strategies
rates based contracts (where P and G costs are
fairly constant and work is very straightforward)
Pricing strategies for framework contracts
A framework agreement is a contract where the terms of
payment are agreed in the absence of a detailed scope of
work
Pricing strategies
Lump sum
Not suitable –require scope of
work to price the work
Bills of quantities
Activity schedule
Possibly in simple works but
need to deal with costs
Price list
associated with different sites
Cost reimbursable
Target cost
Yes – if linked to a management
contractor
Suitable – as cost parameters
can be pre-agreed and target can
be initially tendered and
thereafter negotiated

Construction procurement strategy
Construction procurement strategy is the combination of:
• delivery management strategy
• contracting arrangements
• procurement arrangements
A procurement strategy can be developed for:
•
•
•
a single project
a programme of projects
a portfolio of projects
It identifies the best way of achieving objectives and value
for money, whilst taking into account risks and constraints
Portfolio = the total extent of infrastructure controlled or used
by an institution
Portfolio of
projects over
next few
years
Programmes
packages
A strategic
approach
Package = works which have been grouped together for
delivery under a single contract or a package order issued in
terms of a framework agreement
The Benefit of Developing a Procurement Strategy
The central objective of developing a construction
procurement strategy is:
• to determine possible procurement and
contracting options
• that will maximise value-for-money,
• deal with capacity constraints
• and ensure long term sustainability
• Different options are most suitable under different
conditions
• The choice of options is dependent on local
conditions.

Step 1: Decide on Quality Strategy
Refer to Practice Guide 2, Section 7.2, page 41,
Table 14 for options and decision criteria for building
quality into the procurement arrangements.
Quality may be achieved through:
• Specifications
• Life cycle costing
• Prequalification
• Eligibility criteria
• Undertakings at tender stage
• Preference
• Evaluation criteria
63
Step 2: Decide on Procurement Procedure
Practice Guide 2, Section 7.3, page 42, Table 15
You will select one of the three basic procurement
procedures, using the criteria set out in Table 15:
• A negotiation procedure where a tender offer is
solicited from a single tenderer
• A competitive selection procedure
• A competitive negotiation procedure
• Eligibility criteria (Call for expressions of interest)
64
Options within Competitive Selection
•If you have chosen a competitive selection procedure,
you must make further choices:
• Nominated
• Open
• Qualified
• Quotation
• Proposal procedure using the two-envelope system
• Proposal procedure using the two-stage tendering
system
65
Options within a Competitive Negotiation
If you have chosen a competitive
negotiation selection procedure, you must
make further choices.
Restrictive competitive negotiations

Documenting a procurement strategy
The procurement strategy arrived at by applying the aforementioned
procedures needs to be documented in such a manner that the logic
behind the choices that are made at each step can be communicated to
and reviewed by others. Accordingly, the specific inputs and outputs of
the actions at each step in the stages of the development of a strategy
need to be documented.
A procurement strategy at a portfolio level should be documented in a
tabular form which links each category or portion of a category of spend
to a number of high level descriptions. Procurement strategies at a
programme level can be similarly presented, with perhaps, more detailed
descriptors. The strategic brief that is developed for a package during the
package information stage of the package planning phase must,
however, set out all the choices made in relation to the package in
sufficient detail to enable procurement documents to be drafted to
enable the necessary procurement processes to commence.
