Sanral at the heart of rural socio-economic development

摘要

The project is different from conventional projects in that it was completed in its entirety through labour-intensive techniques. It created a great number of jobs per capita of expenditure. This meant that human resources management increased for the construction management team. A total of eight SMMEs were given a platform to develop their contracting, procurement and managerial skills. With all the CETA-accredited training being completed, the project achieved almost all of its outcomes. With the project complete, lessons learnt were: 1.Procurement of material and sourcing that can serve as a buffer will reduce delays in case there is a shutdown or plant breakdown at one source. 2.By thoroughly engaging the local leadership to take ownership of the project, acts that may hinder progress on site are avoided.
