ActionSA Commends City of Tshwane on Building In-house Capacity for City Projects

ActionSA welcomes the recent initiative by the City of Tshwane to mandate the insourcing of quantity surveyors and architectural services within its Department Economic Development and Spatial Planning.

This strategic move not only promises substantial financial savings for the city but also reinforces the importance of building in-house capacity which is an essential priority to ActionSA

In-house capacity building is critical for ensuring the sustainability and effectiveness of municipal services. By utilizing internal resources for construction projects, the City of Tshwane effectively reduces costs associated with external consulting fees. This initiative stands to save the city millions of rands while ensuring that projects are completed to a high standard and in accordance with city-wide quality benchmarks.

As a party committed to good governance and accountability, ActionSA believes that this approach will lead to improved project oversight, more efficient resource allocation, and ultimately better service delivery to the residents of Tshwane. By enabling local professionals to oversee the municipal projects, the city is fostering a culture of competence and excellence that reinforces public trust.

We commend the City of Tshwane for this forward-thinking initiative and look forward to seeing its positive impact on building a robust and capable local government that prioritizes the needs of the community.
