				CESA Presidential Media Breakfast: 29 
				January 2020 - Our President, Sugen Pillay, presented his 
				presidential message and theme for the year at a function held 
				in Johannesburg this morning. Pillay's 2020 theme is '2020 - A 
				time for Reflection, Renewal and Regeneration'. Pillay began his 
				presentation by stating, "South Africa once again finds itself 
				in the throes of a new era, and we are certainly in a period of 
				great change but there is also a sense that through this 
				process, that we are indeed in a period of renewal and 
				regeneration." To access his speech and presentation please

				ECSA Fee Guideline - At the invitation of ECSA, 
				CESA has nominated a number of our active participants (from 
				member firms) to serve on the ECSA Fees Guideline Task Team. As 
				previously reported the Council for the Built Environment (CBE) 
				has requested its six Statutory Councils (including CESA) to 
				update and publish fee guidelines for their constituents. The 
				Council for the Project Managers (SACPCMP) has published its Fee 
				Guideline &amp; IDOW, while the Councils for the Architects (SACAP) 
				and the Quantity Surveyors (ASAQS) are in the final stages of 
				approving and publishing their Fee Guidelines &amp; IDOW.

		Flying the CESA Flag - It has been a busy start to 
		2020 and I have attended a number of high-profile meetings in January to 
		raise the profile and relevance of CESA as well as to advance the 
		interests of the consulting engineering sector. The meetings included 
		the following:
		<ul>
			<li>Business Unity South Africa (BUSA) Economic Indaba 
			- to which member firms were invited and several were able to 
			attend. The President, Cyril Ramaphosa was the keynote speaker and 
			pleasingly confirmed the sentiments of our industry wrt the need for 
			action and implementation.</li>
			<li>National Planning Commission - I attended a 
			workshop on Infrastructure Delivery held at the Union Buildings and 
			I'm happy to share that the NPC is looking at how best to fast-track 
			planned infrastructure projects</li>
			<li>Infrastructure Investment Office (IIO) in the Presidency 
			- &nbsp;I met the Head of the IIO as part of an ongoing initiative of 
			driving collaboration between our industry and the Presidency.</li>
		</ul>
		State plan for SOEs - As CESA is a member of BUSA, I&nbsp; 
		also had the opportunity of attending a meeting of the NEDLAC Forum 
		where a presentation was made on Government's Plan for some of the major 
		SOE's, kindly
		<a href="http://www.cesa.co.za/uploads/NEDLAC_Exco_Presentation_06_December_2019.ppt">
		click here</a> to access the presentation. 
		&nbsp; 
		DPWI unlimited liability requirement - Having met with 
		the WC Provincial Roads Dept and agreed a way forward in rationalising 
		its liability requirements in its SLAs, CESA has successfully approached 
		DPWT (National) in this regard and is in the process of arranging a 
		meeting to rationalise its unlimited liability requirements.&nbsp; 
		&nbsp; 
		Tender Irregularities - It is gratifying to report that 
		following a complaint from a member firm, CESA was instrumental in 
		achieving the cancellation of a tender administered by Mvula Trust for 
		the 'Appointment of Multi-Disciplinary Team of Professional Service 
		Providers for a W&amp;S Programme at 36 Eastern Cape schools', as the 
		tenders were not opened nor recorded at the tender closing. We cannot 
		tolerate this blatant disregard for transparency in the public 
		procurement process and we are busy engaging ACSA over a similar 
		transgression in a recent tender in the Eastern Cape. 
		&nbsp; 
		Construction Sector Charter Council (CSCC) - The 
		closure of the Council appears imminent as the funding problems have 
		persisted and as it appears that there are no willing funders. 
		&nbsp; 
		BEPEC - As reported in the previous newsletter, BEPEC 
		is experiencing funding difficulties and unfortunately has had to be 
		liquidated.&nbsp; 
		&nbsp; 
		PPGI EBEIS feedback - Engineering News reported in an 
		article entitled "Public, private sector collaboration bearing fruit 
		across various sectors" that a PPGI meeting between private sector 
		leaders and government had been held earlier in the week of 24 Jan 2020, 
		where it was noted that representatives from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.engineeringnews.co.za/topic/construction">construction</a>&nbsp;sector 
		(EBEIS) appealed for fit-for-purpose procurement frameworks within 
		government. For full the article
		<a href="https://www.engineeringnews.co.za/article/public-private-sector-collaboration-bearing-fruit-across-various-sectors-2020-01-24">
		click here</a>. 
		&nbsp; 
		Additionally the project managers of the Progress with the PPGI EBEIS 
		initiative as it relates to the construction sector, reported at the 
		SAFE meeting of 22 Jan 2020, that they had concluded that the major 
		hinderances to economic progress lie mainly in the realm of public 
		sector procurement.

	South African Forum for Engineering (SAFE) - CESA attended 
	the SAFE Meeting held on 22 Jan 2020 where discussion included the intention 
	of Minister Blade Nzimande to place the CETA under administration,&nbsp; 
	progress with the PPGI EBEIS initiative as it relates to the construction 
	sector, the serious delays by SABS in approving &amp; publishing new Codes, the 
	new engineering qualifications, DPWI initiatives wrt EPWP and the 
	forthcoming elections to ECSA (and the need for member firms to nominate 
	engineers from their staff as candidates for ECSA). 
	&nbsp; 
	Built Environment Professions Grouping (BEPG) - CESA 
	attended the BEPG Meeting held on 24 Jan 2020 where discussions included 
	input into the CBE Fees &amp; IDOW Committee as well as: 
	·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Ergonomic Regulations

	Aon Annual Presentation - As reported previously, Aon 
	presented the Annual Report for the CESA PI Insurance Scheme at the CESA 
	Quality, Risk&amp; Sustainability Committee meeting held on 25 Nov 2019. 
	Important points for members attention emanating from the Annual Report are:
		<ul>
			<li>Members tend to forget the need for non-technical insurance for 
			Directors and Officers. There is a small amount provided under the 
			PI policy, but a bigger separate policy is required that also covers 
			cyber risk</li>
			<li>Claims are largely the result of inexperienced engineers, 
			discounting (although clients are beginning to limit discounts 
			recognising 'that you get what you pay for'), cost overruns and fast 
			tracking.</li>
			<li>It is critically important that members notify their PI Insurers 
			of potential claims otherwise the Insurers can refute the claim 
			should it materialise.</li>
		</ul>
