Overview
Our Vision & Mission
Infrastructure South Africa is an infrastructure centre of excellence and is established as a single point of entry for infrastructure planning, management, and delivery. Infrastructure South Africa is a catalyst for closing the infrastructure investment gap and meeting the infrastructure target set out in the National Development Plan and provides best practises in project preparation, leadership on infrastructure planning, technical and financial support for nationally prioritised infrastructure projects and programmes.
ISA’s founding mandate is centred around three pillars:
Intelligent Investment | Infrastructure Solutions | Ease of Doing Business.
Through the founding mandate, ISA aims to:
- Expedite bankable project preparation in line with national objectives
- Create visibility of the pipeline of strategic priority infrastructure projects by monitoring and reporting on the implementation thereof
- Be a catalyst to improving project delivery across the infrastructure development value chain
- Accelerate infrastructure investment by, inter alia, unblocking and unlocking government processes in terms of permitting, licensing, authorizations and permissions
- Be a credible infrastructure management structure, designing new projects in the public sector that includes a life-cycle view of all requirements (end-to-end);
- Be a catalyst to improve the quality and rate of infrastructure investment through innovative funding and financing mechanisms
