Department of Public Works

In order to execute its mandate competently, the Department of Public Works (Department) has identified five strategic outcome-orientated goals that define its direct service delivery responsibilities. These goals are: i. Transform the Construction and Property Sectors through the development of policy and legislature  prescripts; ii. Provide oversight of the Public Works sector; iii. To provide an oversight role in the implementation of Public Employment Programmes (PEPs) through  Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) standardised frameworks.iv. Oversee the efficient delivery of identified services to Prestige Clients; and v. Support service delivery in a smart, proactive and business centric manner that is aligned to statutory requirements. The implementation of the Department’s Strategic Plan is dependent on the synchronisation of its Work Plan with that of Government’s National Priorities and other Government-wide Plans. In this regard, the Department has both direct and indirect links with certain Government-wide Plans, as indicated in the document.
