Glossary
Acquire For provincial governments, “acquire” is defined in the relevant provincial
land administration law or transfer of custodianship between custodians in
that sphere of government.
Custodian Means a national or provincial department designated in terms of GIAMA
that must plan, acquire, manage and dispose of immovable assets. In this
document, the Custodian is the Department of Transport and Public Works.
Dispose Includes the sale, exchange, donation or letting of provincial state land.
Immovable asset Any immovable asset acquired or owned by government, including Western
Cape Government (WCG)-owned and leased immovable assets. Immovable
assets are further described as land and any immovable improvements on
that land which have enduring value, including assets of a residential, non-
residential or infrastructural nature, and including installed machinery and
equipment that is an integral part of the immovable asset.
Immovable asset
management
Those management processes which aim to ensure that the value of an
immovable asset is optimised throughout its lifecycle.
Lifecycle The National Treasury-prescribed period (per asset class) during which a
custodian can expect to derive economic benefits from the control of that
class of immovable asset.
Maintenance All work on existing immovable asset that is undertaken to:
a) prevent deterioration and failure;
b) restore the immovable asset to its specified level of operation;
c) restore the physical condition to specified standards;
d) recover the immovable asset from structural and service failure; and
e) partially replace components of the immovable asset with
equivalent components.
Reconfiguration Activities to make changes to the configuration of an immovable asset which
change the functionality of the asset.
Refurbishment Comprehensive capital works actions intended to bring an immovable asset
back to its original appearance or state or to extend its lifecycle.
Refurbishment may also be required for historical preservation.
Renovation Renovation works do not necessarily extend functionality or the life of the
asset, but are necessary for the planned life to be achieved. In such cases,
the capital value of the asset is not affected.
Repair Actions to bring an immovable asset back to its original state when the asset
has been accidentally or maliciously damaged.
Strategic plan The strategic plan of a custodian or user as prescribed in the Public Service
Act, 1994, and the Public Finance Management Act, 1999.
Operational plan A detailed plan with clear goals describing the day-to-day management of
an immovable asset to ensure that the value of that immovable asset is
optimised throughout its life cycle, by planning for its upkeep, maintenance
and repair, security, and payment of services.
Surplus In relation to an immovable asset, surplus means that the immovable asset no
longer supports the service delivery objectives of a user.
Surrender plan A plan for the relinquishment of immovable assets (or parts of immovable
assets) where the immovable assets (or parts of immovable assets) no longer
support the service delivery objectives of a user.
Upgrade (extension,
addition)
Comprehensive capital works that increase the value of an existing
immovable asset and extend the area of, or add new functionality to, the
asset in question.

Section 1: Introduction
In line with the Government Immovable Asset Management Act (GIAMA), 2007, (Act 19
of 2007), the Department of Transport and Public Works (DTPW) is the Custodian of the
Western Cape Government (WCG) infrastructure portfolio (excluding human settlements),
and therefore exercises a key role in ensuring that infrastructure plays a developmental
role in addressing the challenges of poverty, inequality and unemployment, whilst
ensuring that infrastructure is managed optimally over its life-cycle. The Custodian role of
the DTPW extends to all other departments in the province, including provision for
education, health, social, and general buildings.
Apart from its role as Custodian, the department is required to develop this U-AMP which
provides for its own specific service delivery needs as a user and which extends to
responsibilities that include road network management, transport operations, transport
safety, regulation and integrated planning space, and community-based programmes.
The Department is developing a 20-year infrastructure vision that seeks to consider and
respond to a range of emerging socio-economic, technological and environmental
change phenomena. The intention is that this 20-year vision will iteratively inform the
DTPW’s five-year U-AMPs over that period.
The key strategic intent of the department regarding its existing immovable assets is to
manage and improve the efficiency, effectiveness and sustainability of its property
holdings through reducing costs and improving space utilisation coupled with real
percentage reduction in full-time employee costs. Longer term strategic approach
include the development of a master accommodation plan to achieve efficiencies and
resilience in the accommodation portfolio. A shared office building approach is
supported intending to mitigate growing office accommodation demand as well as
promote integration to further improve efficiencies. The department is continuing to find
sustainable solutions in providing resilient infrastructure that can adequately respond to
climate change and environmental challenges.
This 2019/20 U-AMP presents the final year in the five-year cycle of strategic deliverables
that are described in the DTPW Strategic Plan 2015/16–2019/20. It is a result of various
improvements in planning processes which seek to promote integration. As a user, the
Department is allocated immovable assets comprising of state-owned and leased-in
accommodation to fulfil its strategic objectives. The property portfolio represents a mixture
of old and new buildings located inside the Cape Town Central Business District (CBD) and
elsewhere in the Western Cape. The portfolio of state-owned and leased-in
accommodation allocated to the Department is described in Schedules 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3.

The DTPW’s own vision is consistent with the WCG’s vision:
“To lead in the delivery of government infrastructure and related services.”
Mission
“The DTPW delivers infrastructure and services to promote socio-economic outcomes and
safe, empowered and connected communities.”
Values
The DTPW fully subscribes to the core values of the Western Cape Government (WCG):
Figure 1: WCG core values
All these values are underpinned by team work.
Legislative and policy frameworks
Government Immovable Asset Management Act
GIAMA provides for a uniform framework for the management of immovable assets held
or used by the DTPW to help ensure the coordination of the use of immovable assets with
the service delivery objectives. The principles of immovable asset management include:
• immovable assets must be used efficiently and become surplus to the
Department if they do not support service delivery objectives at an efficient level
and if they cannot be upgraded to such a level.
• immovable assets that are currently used must be kept operational to function in
a manner that supports efficient service delivery.

GIAMA requires the Department as a user to prepare an Immovable Asset Management
Plan to be known as a U-AMP in relation to the immovable assets that the Department
uses, or intends to use. A U-AMP is the principal immovable asset strategic planning
instrument which guides and informs all immovable asset management decisions by the
Department.
GIAMA requires the Department in its capacity as a user of immovable assets to develop
a U-AMP that forms part of its strategic planning process. Other sets of legislation,
regulations and policies that contribute to the development of the U-AMP are set out in
Annexure A.

Approved and funded programme objectives
Budget programme objectives
The existing immovable assets allocated per budget programme are not sufficient to
support the achievement of service delivery objectives. These include office
accommodation, information and communications technology (ICT) facilities required in
line with advances in technology and district road engineering, road camps and houses,
and traffic centres. The extent to which existing allocated immovable assets meet the
functional requirements, the gap between existing and required assets, as well as
proposed solutions to address programme demand are discussed below and are further
described in Schedule 1 per budget programme. The storage space is a transversal
requirement across programmes and is advised that the Custodian addresses the need
collectively.
Programme 1: Administration
This Programme provides for the overall management support to the Department in order
to ensure that it delivers on its mandate in an integrated, efficient, effective and
sustainable manner. Currently the components of the Programme are fragmented in
various state-owned and leased-in buildings within the CBD and this negatively impacts
integration. There is a need for the Custodian to assess the possibility to fully
accommodate the Programme at 9 Dorp Street in accordance with applicable norms
and standards.
Programme 1’s requirements for supporting the achievements of its service delivery
objectives include: an ICT training facility that can accommodate 15–20 seats; storage
space; repair requirements at Alfred Street; and reconfiguring 9 Dorp Street to optimally
accommodate the components of the Programme.
Programme 2: Public Works Infrastructure
This Programme provides balanced provincial government building infrastructure that
promotes integration, accessibility, sustainability, equity, environmental sensitivity,
economic growth and social empowerment. As the implementing agent for infrastructure,
the programme plays a critical role in providing access for communities to education,
health and social services through the provision of education, health and general
infrastructure. This contributes to the attainment of the WCG’s strategic goals of improved
education, an increase in wellness, the eradication of social ills, as well as creating
opportunities for growth and jobs for residents of the province. As part of its function to
promote the effective and efficient utilisation of the immovable asset portfolio, the Programme
has embarked on the preparation of a master accommodation plan. The overall objective of
this plan is to review departmental requirements and developing an accommodation strategy
that improves the efficiency, effectiveness, productivity and well-being of all WCG employees.
Currently the components of the Programme are accommodated at DTPW Head Office
at 9 Dorp Street, and at Atterbury House (leased-in) buildings in the CBD, while the regional

office is accommodated at York Park in George. Programme 2’s requirements in the CBD
to support the achievement of its service delivery objectives include: space ratification for
the Chief Directorate: Education Infrastructure; office accommodation; alternative
accommodation for the recycling station and plans registry; and storage. In the Garden
Route district, adequate modernised office accommodation is required in George; a
workshop near the York Park building; and adequate parking for Government Garage
(GG) and officials’ vehicles.
Programme 3: Transport Infrastructure
The Programme delivers and maintain transport infrastructure that is sustainable,
integrated and environmentally sensitive, that supports and facilitates social
empowerment and economic growth, and that promotes accessibility and the safe,
affordable movement of people, goods and services. The Programme is responsible for all
the transport infrastructure of provincially proclaimed roads within the road reserve and
its management. To support achievement of its strategic objectives, the Chief Directorate:
Organisation Development is continuing with the redesign of the Chief Directorate: Road
Network Management which might impact on the accommodation needs of the
Programme.
Due to the current fragmentation of various components of the Programme, a proposal
to accommodate the entire Programme at a newly constructed building is to be explored
to ensure integration of all critical functions. Further, the District Roads Engineer (DRE)
offices located at Paarl, Ceres and Oudtshoorn are responsible for the maintenance of
the existing road infrastructure network to standards that optimise the efficient and safe
realisation of these opportunities for long-term sustainability of the province. Scheduled
and preventative maintenance as well as attention to health and safety requirements are
required at the DRE facilities, road camps and road houses.
Programme 4: Transport Operations
Programme 4 plans, regulates and facilitates the provision of integrated land transport
services through coordination and cooperation with national planning authorities,
municipalities, community-based organisations, non-governmental organisations and the
private sector in order to enhance and facilitate the mobility of all communities.
Optimal supporting accommodation is required at DTPW Head Office for programme
support operations, public transport services, transport safety and compliance services,
and transport systems support. Further expansion of the George bus depot is required.
Through the implementation of the Integrated Information Hub (ITIH), the Department is
pioneering the use of smart technology as a force multiplier. The Hub brings together data
from the Transport Management Branch’s Traffic Management, Traffic Law Enforcement,
Transport Operations, and Provincial Regulatory Entity to support evidence-based
decision making. Benefits of the system include more effective speed control, overloading
control, and control of fatigued driving in service of safer roads for residents of, and visitors
to, the Western Cape. With regards to the Fatigue Management Programme, the ITIH will
monitor programme results by scanning vehicle number plates and drivers’ licences at
intervals on long journeys, focusing on public transport and freight vehicles. This will
Department of Transport and Public Works

generate specific data, including average speed, and time spent resting versus time
spent behind the wheel. Accommodation at the leased-in building in 11 Leeuwen street
is being re-organised to cater for these technological advances.
Programme 5: Transport Regulations
The Programme regulates the transport environment through: the registration and
licensing of vehicles, associations, operators and drivers; promoting safety through traffic
law enforcement services; facilitating communication and road safety education and
awareness; operating weighbridges1; and providing training to traffic policing and other
law enforcement officials.
Optimal supporting accommodation for the Programme is required at Head Office,
Vangate Shared Service Centre (VSSC), regional road-based public transport
representative bodies, impoundment facilities, Provincial Regulatory Entity regional
offices, regional road safety offices, as well as at various regional traffic centres across the
province.
The Directorate: Operating Licensing and Permits situated at the VSSC administers
applications for operating licences. Because this is a service delivery centre, it should be
safe and easily accessible for clients. An archive facility is required to address the
increasing number of documents requiring filing every day. The proposal is for the
Custodian to explore the possibility of converting the existing VSSC storage building into
an archive facility which meets South African archive standards and Minimum Information
Security Standards (MISS).
The Sub-Directorates Formalisation and Empowerment, and Mediation and Stakeholder
Relations are currently located at a leased-in building (Norton Rose, 8 Riebeek Street,
Cape Town). The demand for services from metered taxi industry operators has declined
as a result of the introduction of the Uber and Taxify services, therefore this office no longer
needs to be based in the CBD. It is proposed that this office be relocated to Goulburn
Centre in Goodwood to reduce traffic in the CBD as well as to address clients’ safety,
security and parking concerns about the current location of this office.
As the only 24/7 traffic service in South Africa, and together with its local authority partners,
DTPW Provincial Traffic Services continues to police hazardous locations, and help ensure
a safe and free-flowing road network for all users of provincial roads in the Western Cape.
Providing effective traffic services ideally requires support facilities that are scaled to fit
the volume of traffic in a locality, and the number of crashes recorded there. This
approach can be seen in Beaufort West, where the response to high volumes of traffic
and many crashes has been to locate a traffic centre, a weighbridge, an impoundment
facility, emergency services and radio control service together in a shared space.
A service delivery model for Traffic Management is required to analyse alternative modes
of delivery which in turn will determine suitable locations of traffic centres and related
services. A new office building is required at Gene Louw Traffic College to accommodate
staff of the Chief Directorate: Traffic Management currently accommodated in a leased-
in building (35 Wale Street, Cape Town). Refurbishment of the mobile structures located

at the Gene Louw College is required to accommodate the Brackenfell traffic centre sited
at premises in Parow, where after relocation of the Directorate: Road Safety Management
from CBD to Parow is required. Prefabs to be refurbished and re-modelled to
accommodate 60 operational and 15 support staff.
Government Motor Transport (GMT)
GMT is a trading entity in the administration of the DTPW with a core mandate of delivering
effective fleet management services to provincial and national government clients in the
Western Cape.
GMT accommodation in Cape Town is currently in four separate locations. Because of this
fragmentation, the lack of parking space to prepare vehicles for delivery, and the security
and related risks associated with moving vehicles between various premises, the DTPW
acquired premises at 3 Rusper Street, Maitland for the construction of a multi-storey
building that could eventually house the whole of GMT. Phase 1 of construction has been
completed and the GMT Directorate: Fleet Services moved there in October and
November 2018. Construction on Phase 2 for the GMT Directorate: Fleet Finance and the
Sub-Directorate Management: Support Services is planned to commence during the
2019/20 financial year and is projected to be completed within approximately two years.
Interim reconfiguration measures are required at Roeland Street and Hope Street to
provide office accommodation while Phase 2 is being built.
Clients in the Garden Route and Central Karoo can expect improved service as the
service capacity at the GMT George Hub expands, and as the Hub makes a pool of
vehicles available for optimal utilisation and to support clients to deliver services more
efficiently.
In support of the City of Cape Town’s Level 5 water restrictions, GMT introduced several
initiatives to save and recycle water. These initiatives included no longer washing vehicles
with potable water, replacing taps with pushbutton taps, and removing taps in the wash
bay areas. GMT now only cleans vehicle interiors and uses mobile service providers clean
vehicle exteriors with waterless products.
Programme 6: Community-Based Programmes
The Programme manages the implementation of programmes and strategies that lead to
the development and empowerment of communities and contractors, including the
professional development, provincial management, and coordination of the EPWP.
Optimal supporting accommodation is required to provide effective community-based
programme support, contractor development, empowerment impact assessments, and
EPWP coordination and compliance monitoring. With the exception of Grabouw, the
supporting accommodation is in an optimal state at regional offices.

Organisational environment
The DTPW functions within an increasingly challenging environment that requires an agile
and resilient organisational life-cycle approach coupled with re-organisation of its
components. In this regard, organisational re-design to be undertaken is the re-alignment
of the Public Works functions to the Infrastructure Delivery Management System, whilst the
re-structuring of Transport Infrastructure is at an advanced stage and the impact of these
changes on accommodation requirements has not been explored. The current funded

Portfolio composition
As a user, the Department is allocated immovable assets comprising of WCG-owned and
leased-in accommodation to fulfil its strategic objectives. The property portfolio represents
a mixture of buildings in various life-cycle stages. These properties are reflected in
Schedule 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and Figure 3 below.

Figure 3: DTPW asset portfolio
The asset portfolio of the DTPW is predominantly located in the Cape Town CBD where its
head office is at 9 Dorp Street. Service delivery points are also located in other parts of the
Western Cape. These include facilities for traffic law enforcement, District Road Engineer
offices, the Provincial Regulatory Entity, road camps, the Expanded Public Works
Programme, and public transport administration, operations and licensing.
Functional performance, accessibility and condition rating
Through its provincially-owned and leased-in property portfolio, the Department
endeavours to ensure that its strategic objectives are met. The functional performance
presents the level at which the allocated accommodation supports achievements of
service delivery objectives of the department. These are presented in Schedules 3.1 and
3.2. The functional performance ranges between P4 and P1 where a P4 rating indicates
good public presentation and a high-quality working environment and P1 indicates a
dormant asset where relinquishment is pending. The overall condition of the DTPW
allocated state-owned and leased-in assets range from having no apparent defects, to
being in average condition. No assets shown to be in a failing condition.

The accessibility rating was determined according to the physical location of the
accommodation, accessibility to the public (where applicable), accessibility in terms of
public transport routes, parking and other public areas, as well as accessibility for persons
with disabilities. The accessibility rating ranges between A5 and A1, where an A5 rating
represents well-designed accommodation asset that is universally accessible, and an A1
rating is not at all accessible. With regard to accessibility, most allocated DTPW assets are
accessible to the general public as well as people with disabilities.
The condition rating refers to the physical condition of a building. These condition ratings
are based on the user’s perception of the immovable assets in question. GIAMA requires
the Custodian to assess the condition of its immovable assets at least once every fifth year.
Technical conditional assessments are conducted every year by the Custodian. The
average condition of the General Buildings portfolio, based on a weighted Condition
Grade Index (CGI), aligned with the GIAMA Performance Standard grades, from 1 (worst)
to 5 (best) is 3.78. The overall condition of the General Buildings asset portfolio is relatively
good and the condition profile quite appropriate, given the wide spread of functionalities
within this portfolio. Most of the components in the buildings are in condition C5 and C4.
Objectives to improve the efficient and effective utilisation of accommodation
The WCG embraces the opportunity to improve office accommodation for staff through
modernisation of the workplace. In this regard, the DTPW uses prescribed space norms
and standards that must be adhered to when planning and designing office
accommodation as described in Table 4 below.

In planning for DTPW office accommodation needs, an average of 15 m2 norm was
applied and is described in Schedule 4.
Section 3: Acquisition plan
The DTPW acquisition requirements comprises of the need for newly constructed office
buildings to reduce fragmentation, acquisition of existing office buildings for improved
service delivery to clients and to maximise effective working environments. The detailed
acquisition plan is described in Schedule 8.
Section 4: Refurbishment plan
From time to time it becomes necessary to improve the operations of an immovable asset
to extend its life-cycle as well as reconfigure the asset to meet new service delivery
demands of the department. The refurbishments plan includes current and proposed
refurbishments, configurations and upgrades directed to improve service delivery. The
office modernisation programme is directed to increase capacity of state-owned
buildings thereby reduce the extent of leased-in portfolio. The modernised office buildings
optimise workplaces as they provide versatile spaces, furniture and fittings that increase
the usable area to gross building area. Office modernisation of the third and eighth floors
in 9 Dorp Street is planned for 2019/20 financial year. The modernisation of the 7th, 8th and
9th floors is scheduled to commence in 2019/20 financial year. This will require temporary
decanting of staff. Further refurbishments are described in Schedule 9.
Section 5: Repairs/Maintenance
The performance of capital assets is essential to the health, safety, economic
development and quality of life of recipients of these services. The Department adopted
a strategic shift in its management of infrastructure portfolio to focus on maintenance and
lifecycle cost management within constrained budgetary pressures.

The DTPW General Infrastructure Maintenance Management Strategy, 2017 outlines a
transparent and uniform approach to planned maintenance of the provincial immovable
asset portfolio (excluding human settlements, health and education facilities). During
2017/18, the Chief Directorate: General Infrastructure undertook an exercise to scope all
road camps and associated houses to ascertain the maintenance requirements at these
facilities. It is envisaged that upon completion of the scoping exercise and consultations
with the programme, road camp models will be developed in line with the redesigned
organisational structure currently underway to preserve life of these assets and further
ensure alignment to service delivery objectives.
Section 6: Surplus accommodation
None.
Section 7: Budget
Over the medium term, the provincial budget policy is directed to maximise citizen
impact. This calls for vigilance and improvement in infrastructure budget execution
through integrated planning, good procurement strategies and strengthening processes
for monitoring infrastructure implementation and delivery. Apart from the budget
provisions of the department for its Custodian responsibilities, departmental budget
programmes make provisions to safeguard assets used to fulfil each programme’s
strategic objectives. However, some programmes are solely dependent on provisions
made by the Custodian in line with management of asset life-cycle. Transport
Infrastructure made provision for maintenance of its campsites, houses and mobile homes
while Transport Regulations made provision for routine maintenance of its office buildings,
as per Table 5 below.

Section 8: Plan improvement and monitoring
In order to manage its immovable asset portfolio efficiently, the Department is adopting
a strategic approach in the management of its assets across its life-cycle to maximise
value. One such intervention is the Asset Information Management System (AIMS) project
which will digitise and integrate the DTPW asset register. This is an ongoing project that
seeks to modernise the DTPW business model.
The office accommodation norms and standards that were set demonstrates the DTPW’s
commitment to “green” principles across general, health and education infrastructure
and work to mitigate the impact of the water crisis. It is critical that a whole-of-asset
approach is followed which includes making every effort to introduce climate resilience
into the provincial asset portfolio before any building of new infrastructure is considered.
The historic maintenance backlog of social infrastructure requires immediate intervention
to promote and preserve the role that this infrastructure plays. The focus will continue to
address emergency failures brought about by poor maintenance and normal wear and
tear. The existing maintenance backlog is exacerbated by the need for infrastructure to
be resilient to climate change.
To maximise citizen impact, OHS assessments were conducted at various buildings in order
to ensure safety and wellbeing of staff as well as citizens served at these facilities. The
identified OHS related work is depicted in Schedule 11 per facility for implementation by
the Custodian.
The user welcomes the initiatives by the Custodian in line with the recently adopted Green
Building Policy by the National Department of Public Works. The policy identifies the built
environment and more specifically buildings as a key lever to address the challenges
associated with accelerated climate change. The DTPW has identified Smart Buildings as
one such opportunity to contribute to realising system-wide sustainability, through a series
of automated processes that enable centralised control over operations, and is
researching ways to introduce components of smart buildings into its property portfolio.
Conclusion
This U-AMP focuses only on the immovable asset portfolio occupied by the Department
as a user, identifying requirements to best meet its service delivery objectives.
The immovable asset requirements consist of the need for new accommodation and
maintenance of the provincial buildings occupied by, and allocated to, the Department.
The accommodation required to fulfil the service delivery objectives has been
categorised by budget programmes in line with the approved staff establishment. Most
of the immovable asset requirements of the DTPW in 2019/20 are to be addressed through
the modernisation work currently being done in the 9 Dorp Street and York Park building.
The user intends to develop a 5-year U-AMP for the period 2020/21 – 2024/25 in order to
align its requirements to the DTPW Strategic Plan for the same period.

Provide new accommodation on 10th floor 27 Wale Street, to
accommodate Chief Directorate. A total of 50m2 is required to optimally
accommodate the Chief Directorate staff. 226 m2 is required to
accommodate the architects, engineers and technical admin staff. Total
area required by Chief Directorate and 2 Directorates = 1 801m2.
Additional space required including workstations at applicable standards
for new approved structure to accommodate existing staff numbers and
5 additional vacancies (Total = 5 + 99 + 22 = Grand Total 126)
A space ratification process was compiled in 2014 for a total number of
126 staff and it was established that 1801m² would be required to
accommodate Education Infrastructure Policies, Strategies and Systems.
Currently, a total number of 127 staff has been planned for and thus, the
allocation of ±1801m² should be increased to ±1900m² to cater for the
new accommodation requirements (see further down below).
10th floor of 27 Wale Street only provides ±1130m² of usable office
accommodation and this would not cater for the entire Chief
Directorate. Adjacent office accommodation (in the same building and
preferably 2 adjacent floors for efficient business procedures and service
delivery) is required in addition to the 10th floor of 27 Wale Street would
be required.
50m² is only for the office of the Chief Director and does not cater for the
Administration support staff that reports to the Chief Director. 226m² is not
sufficient to cater for the architects, engineers and technical staff across
2 directorates.

Methodology for determining Functional Performance of Accommodation
Required Performance Standard
The required performance rating is allocated in accordance with the function that the
accommodation is required to perform. Table 7 below can be used to determine the
required performance rating for each immovable asset.
Table 6: Required Performance Standard
Performance standard Condition standard Index
Highly sensitive function with critical
results (e.g. hospital operating theatre) or
high profile public building (e.g.
Parliament Building).
Accommodation to be in best possible
condition. Only minimal deterioration will be
tolerated.
P5
Business operations requiring good public
presentation and high-quality working
environments.
Accommodation to be in good condition
operationally and aesthetically, benchmarked
against industry standards for that particular
class of accommodation.
P4
Functionally-focussed accommodation
at utility level (e.g. school).
Accommodation to be in reasonable condition,
fully meeting operational requirements.
P3
Functions are providing essential support
only, with no critical operational role (e.g.
storage) or accommodation has limited
life.
Condition needs to meet minimum operational
requirements oy.
P2
Functions have ceased and
accommodation is dormant; pending
relinquishment, etc.
Condition can be allowed to deteriorate or
marginally maintained at minimal cost.
P1
Accessibility Rating
The accessibility rating provides an indication of the accommodation’s physical location
in relation to the service delivery objectives. This includes where the accommodation is
(address) as well as the accessibility of the accommodation for the general public, or
members that have to conduct their business at the accommodation. Table 8 below can
be used to allocate an accessibility rating for the accommodation.
Table 7: Accessibility Rating
General description Rating
The accommodation ‘s location fully supports service delivery objectives; is fully accessible
to the general public with well-designed public areas and parking; fits in the current
neighbourhood and environmental elements; and is accessible for the physically
challenged.
A5
The accommodation’s location supports service delivery objectives; is fairly accessible to
the general public with moderately designed public areas and parking; fits in the current
neighbourhood and environmental elements; and is accessible for the physically
challenged to the main areas.

The accommodation’s location does not meet service delivery objectives; is not at all
accessible to the general public and should not be used for the current service delivery
objectives.

User Condition Rating
The condition rating is utilised to give a brief indication of the physical condition of the
asset (It should be noted that this is not a full condition assessment). Table 9 below is used
to allocate a condition rating to the accommodation.
Table 9: Condition Rating
Condition
status General description Rating
Excellent Accommodation has no apparent defects. Appearance is as new.
Risk index: No effect on service capability. No risk. C5

Description
A1 The asset is operating optimally and is fully suitable for its required function
A2 The asset meets the minimum operating criteria and is fully suitable for its required
function
A3 The asset does not meet the minimum operating requirements but is fully suitable
for its required function
B1 The asset meets the minimum operating and suitability criteria for its required
function
B2 The asset does not meet the minimum operating criteria but meets the minimum
suitability criteria for its required function
B3 The asset does not meet the minimum operating criteria but meets the minimum
suitability criteria for its required function
C1 The asset does not meet the minimum operating criteria but meets the minimum
suitability criteria for its required function
C2 The asset meets the minimum operating criteria but does not meet the minimum
suitability criteria
C3 The asset does not meet the minimum operating criteria and does not meet the
minimum suitability criteria
The functional performance index should be utilised by the User to select the
appropriate action for the asset. Figure 4 below illustrates the decision framework
(prioritisation) that must take place based on the outcome of the analysis of the different
inputs as outlined earlier. In the event that a facility has been indicated as a Group C
facility then a feasibility study must be undertaken to ascertain the future use of the facility.
The feasibility study will include prioritisation criteria such as population demographics,
costing implications, available budgets etc. There are shortcomings in the outcome of the
functional performance index calculation in that it will not always display a true reflection
of the functionality of the building. The building can be in a relatively good condition and
in the correct location but, for example, due to advancement in technology and
changed and increased operational requirements, may no longer be suitable for the
facility as it stands. Furthermore, a facility may be functional, correctly placed and in good
condition but may be too small to serve the population in the area and may thus need to
be replaced.
