After 20 years of struggle for a voice on Transformation and Empowerment issues in the construction industry, we have finally launched this publication. The aim of the publication is to create a platform where stakeholders, industry partners, emerging contractors, academia, government, financial institutions, students, built environment professionals, politicians and beneficiaries of infrastructur
e projects can engage on matters of Transformation and Empowerment in the construction industry. It is a platform to celebrate and showcase:
Excellent project delivery work completed by emerging contractors
Pioneering Enterprise Development initiatives by many listed companies, and clients (including government and parastatals)
Innovative solutions and initiatives
Skills development initiatives
It is also a platform to:
Provide thought leadership on critical issues in the industry
Engage tertiary institutions, CETA and training providers on their role in developing critical skills for growth and transformation of the sector.
Celebrate women and youth entrepreneurial achievements in the sector
Challenge the slow pace of transformation and expose the negative trends that give our industry a bad name, for example:
o Fronting
o Poor workmanship
o Corruption
o Industry Capture
We invite you to read and offer your views, suggestions and contributions. We also particularly invite you to use the publication to:
