• No common understanding & uniformity when implementing WC/WDM

Challenges for 2007/08

• Limited ownership & commitment on the program

• In fighting over appointment of consultants

• “unnecessary’’ delays over appointment of consultants and contractors

• resources used for other unrelated activities

• failure to comply with the set project management standards

• Still awaiting final reports from 7 of 8 pilot

Criteria employed to select MunicipalitiesCriteria employed to select Municipalities• National representative of all provinces in the country• High levels of non-revenue water and leakages;• Low cost recovery and/or non-payment of services;• Lack of sustainable quality services in previously

disadvantaged areas;• Intermittent water supply with potential to escalate water

tariffs;• Need for further bulk infrastructure; • Socio economic distressed communities that experience high

civil protest• Challenges with achieving Millennium Development Goals

with regard to sanitation and water services provision;• Lack of adequate budget for WC/WDM; and • Significant potential of WCWDM in reducing water demand

of municipalities

PROJECT PLANNING

National Project Steering Committee – D, CD, Salga and PM levels

DWAF D: WUE overall accounting unit

DWAF Regional Office implementation of the projects, sign off

progress reports and invoices

Municipalities buy – in / accept and avail resources to support projects:

√ MM and MMC sign off approvals and acceptance letters√ Technical water division personnel

√ Information about water supply infrastructure, conditions for operation and maintenance (lay out plans of infrastructure, as build drawing, age and performance, peak daily water demand and so on)

√ Treasury information about water bills and water consumptions

√ Insight about water use practices, behavior patterns, education and awareness about importance of WCWDM

Project Approach & Methodology

20

DEVELOP PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION PLAN TO BE APPROVEDBY DWAF & WSA WHICH SHOULD INCLUDE AMONGST OTHERS:

Project Implementation Plan

• Cover page – WSA and DWAF logos;• Problem to be addressed (Problem statement);• Background, problem analysis and justification – indicating

participants, beneficiaries, sustainability in form of current initiatives;

• Project Objectives and success criteria (indicators & measures);

• Work breakdown structure;• Budget;• Cost Estimate & Projected cashflow;• Management & Implementation arrangement;• Risk assessment;• Stakeholder identification;• Pre & Post impact assessment

21

Project Implementation Plan should include at most ff componentsdevelopment of WC/WDM (i.e. Phased approach of Project

Implementation Plan)

• WC/WDM Situation Assessment Report– How much water is available and used?– How much water is being lost? (Water balance);– Where is that water being lost? (Network audit);– Why is the water being lost? (review operating rules & practices);– What WC/WDM interventions can be used to reduce losses, manage demand and

improve performance (Business Plan); and– How can we maintain the WC/WDM strategy and sustain the achievement gained

(Policy change, resource requirements).

• Business Plan (it’s development)– Identified measures– Budget required– Period/ duration for implementation of measures– Pay back period

• Implementation Plan– Prioritize implementation of identified WC/WDM measures

• Physical Implementation of the identified WC/WDM• Monitoring & Evaluation of WC/WDM measures

22

Signatories of Project Implementation Plan

• Municipal Manager

• Mayoral Management Committee

• Regional Office Program Managers

• Director: Water Use Efficiency

23

• In accordance to project implementation plans• Monthly progress reports which includes:

√ Narrative progress report;√ Template format report;√ Attachments where applicable;√ Photos where applicable;√ Cash flow projections

• Quarterly Regional/ national meetings – e.g. WC/WDM quarterly meeting!!!

• All reports must be signed off by Program managers in all three institutions
