2 THE STRATEGIC PLAN OF GPW AND THE NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN The Government Printing Works strives to make a significant contribution to the : 1. National Outcomes of Government 2. Goals of the National Development Plan Specifically our work contributes to the National Outcomes of : Create a better South Africa and contribute to a better and safer Africa and world An efficient, effective and development oriented public service and an empowered, fair and inclusive citizenship A skilled and capable workforce to support an inclusive growth path Specifically our work supports Chapter 13 of the National Development Plan : on building a Capable State - A State capable of playing a transformative and developmental role in realizing the vision for 2030

3 LEGISLATIVE MANDATE The Ministers of Finance, Home Affairs and Public Service and Administration approved the business case for the new GPW in 2009 At the time GPW was still a sub department of the Department of Home Affairs On 9 October 2009 the GPW was converted to a Government Component in terms of the Public Services Act of 1999 as amended (Government Gazette 32616) The GPW derives its legislative mandate from the Public Service Act of 1994, as amended in A Government Component is defined as a national or provincial government component as set out in section 7(1) and 7(2)(c) [column 1 of Part A of Schedule 3] of the Public Service Act Nr 103 of 1994 (as substituted by the Proc 59 Government Gazette 32566, 11 September 2009). As a Government Component the GPW delivers security printing services to government. The CEO of GPW reports to the Minister of Home Affairs The Minister has written delegations that prescribe the powers of the CEO as the Accounting Officer for GPW

6 STRATEGIC OUTLOOK OF THE GPW Since 2009 the GPW has operated on regular business principles, having to defray all its expenditure from the revenue generated by services rendered The principal clientele of the GPW are State Departments and other Organs of State The GPW has the sole mandate to produce South African passports and identification documents is therefore an important strategic partner of the Department of Home Affairs Procuring security printing business in the rest of Africa remains difficult; but GPW continues to print the African Union passport

ERP System The enterprise resourse planning system (ERP) was launched in 2012 It is working well, integrating the financial and manufacturing systems of GPW on an IT backbone

25 STRATEGIC OUTCOME ORIENTED GOALS Strategic outcome oriented goal 3 Developed workforce Goal statement Have an efficient, effective and well-trained/developed workforce 7

26 STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE 3 : DEVELOPED WORKFORCE A. Special Salary Dispensation The Portfolio Committee in 2011 recommended a special salary dispensation for GPW in order to assist the company in recruiting and retaining skilled artisans and professional staff The Minister supported this recommendation In December 2014 the Minister of Public Service and Administration rejected the application by GPW for a special salary dispensation If GPW becomes a State owned company, its employees will no longer fall under the Public Service Act, and it will have greater freedom in setting salaries commensurate with market rates in the printing industry

27 STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE 3 : DEVELOPED WORKFORCE B. Training and Skills Development GPW is increasingly using IT in : - its business processes (such as the ERP system) - in the new machines it is procuring (such as the smart ID card machines) - the products and services it provides such as the smart ID card and the E-Gazette There is therefore a need to continually train and upgrade the skills of the workforce for this modern print and media company There is no alternative to this course of action as the machines have to be replaced as there are no longer spare parts for them; and modern machines that replace them are inevitably high tech.

28 PRODUCTION STATISTICS The GPW is a factory. Production statistics for the past few years are shown below : Product 2013/ / / /2011 Passports (booklets) Identity (booklets) documents Examinations (books) Government (editions) Gazettes Government Gazettes (total number of A4 pages per annum)

29 SMART ID CARD Smart ID card production began on 15 October 2013 Thus far 2 million smart ID cards have been produced Another 36 million smart ID cards will be produced over the next 6 years to replace the current ID books (plus 5 million smart ID cards for those turning 16 each year during those 6 years till 2021) Gradually, printing of green ID books is being replaced by smart ID card production Although GPW can report on increased outputs, service delivery is still negatively affected by human and material resource constraints. The lack of experienced and qualified senior managers, artisans and administrative personnel impacts on service delivery, resulting in the GPW being compelled to outsource certain functions.

31 RELATING EXPENDITURE TRENDS TO STRATEGIC OUTCOME-ORIENTED GOALS To achieve the strategic outcome oriented goals the necessary resources need to be available. GPW has provided for this as follows as part of the budget: Specific budget R /16 R /17 R /18 Strategic outcome oriented goal 1: Further develop the Government Component Remuneration (Roll-Out of new Structure) Capital expenditure IT Equipment & Furniture Staff development Strategic outcome oriented goal 2: Optimise processes and facilities Capital expenditure Facilities Capital expenditure Machinery Replacement Programme Strategic outcome oriented goal 3: Developed workforce Staff development

32 ORGANISED CRIME AND SECURITY PRODUCTS Since the introduction of the new South African passports in 2009 with enhanced security features, over 4 million passports have been printed with not a single successful forgery Other security documents have been replaced with new, secure products such as the unabridged birth certificates, asylum seeker documents, refugee passports, road tax discs, matric certificates, etc. gradually reducing the scope for organised crime syndicates to profit from forgeries the new smart ID card in particular cannot be forged, and theft of the card is pointless as the photograph cannot be replaced on the physical card or in the digital version on the chip the impact to the economy of these new security products probably runs to hundreds of millions of rands; in addition to the human suffering averted entailed in identity theft, human trafficking etc.

33 CONCLUSION The GPW has completed its journey, begun in 2009, from a sub department of Home Affairs to a Government Component It has doubled its budget since 2009, and now operates on business principles, defraying all its operations from revenue generated It is now ready to complete the transformation to a State Owned Company over the next few years The launch of the Smart ID Card, GPW s flagship project, has been a great success with 2 million cards printed over the past 18 months GPW is on track to printing 42 million more smart ID cards over the next 6 years to replace all the green ID books in circulation and issue smart ID cards to those turning 16 during those 6 years to 2021 The R 400 million asset recapitalisation project is on track for completion by 2018 The R 1 billion Renovation of the Visagie Street Campus should be complete by the end of 2019, after which the entire organisation will relocate there

34 CONCLUSION Recruitment and retention of skilled artisans and professional staff remains difficult due to GPW salaries being more than 30% below market rates Conversion to a State Owned Company will enable GPW to pay market-related salaries Procuring security printing business in the rest of Africa remains difficult; but GPW continues to print the African Union passport
