The policy will be finalised by 31 December 2011. All SCM officials involved in procurement will also be forced to sign the Code of Conduct for SCM officials which requires them to remove themselves from processes in which they have a conflict of interest.   Some employees performed remunerative work outside their employment in the department without written permission from the relevant authority as per the Public Service Act and DOD Instruction PERS No 4/99 dated 22 December 1999.   HR acknowledges this finding. HR is correcting this by firstly reviewing the policy to ensure that authority for remunerative work is only approved by the Chief of Service. Chiefs will also compile a database of all employees granted authority and this will be elevated to the C SANDF for his members, Sec Def for other employees and this will eventually be given to the Minister. This will also be captured on PERSOL and a control code will be allocated.

55. DOD AR FY2010/11 55 PROGRAMME 6: MILITARY HEALTH SUPPORT (cont) Challenges   Insufficient budget to fulfil ordered commitments, retain scarce skills and to renew obsolete equipment and capabilities.   Financial Misconduct, Irregular, Fruitless & Wasteful Expenditure challenges, due to   Inadequate capability wrt financial and logistic support personnel at unit level.   Inadequate knowledge on processes and procedures.   Asset and Expenditure Management remains a challenge. To address this IG SAMHS performed 88 Audits as part of Internal Control; and SAMHS contributed to the initiatives/outputs of Project Clean Audit.   Procurement and Contract Management especially regarding the in-sourcing of Cleaning and Hospitality services at military hospitals were challenging. Structures need to be established and personnel to be appointed to address this issue.

56. DOD AR FY2010/11 56 PROGRAMME 7: DEFENCE INTELLIGENCE Achievements   The DI Div fulfilled all obligations required by clients and delivered its products on time excepting security clearances. Challenges   Poor state of the DI HQ building.   Not achieved its targets wrt security clearances due to a backlog caused by the delay (turnaround time) of finger print vetting from the SAPS criminal record centre (CRC).

59. DOD AR FY2010/11 59 PROGRAMME 8: GENERAL SUPPORT Subprogramme: Joint Logistic Services (cont) Challenges (cont)   Tangible Capital Assets:   No dedicated asset management component. The structure has been approved and appointments have been made on the newly established asset management unit.   Multiple logistic subsystems which are not integrated are used for the management of assets. Currently the DOD is one of the lead sites on the implementation of IFMS which will consolidate the systems into one. This is a long term solution.   Complete and accurate asset registers that meet the requirements of National Treasury are not in place. The upgrading of current systems is being done to address the compliance with the disclosure requirements by National Treasury.

68. DOD AR FY2010/11 68 Appendix D: Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies   The continued loss of scarce skills due to the exit of large numbers of highly skilled personnel:   The DOD has developed a remuneration dispensation that recognises military uniqueness for the SANDF, salary levels 1 to 12 and will be implemented in phases starting 1 July 2010.   The Occupation Specific Dispensations (OSD) have been implemented for nurses, social workers, medical practitioners and legal practitioners.   On 15 March 2011 the DOD implemented a special allowance for technicians in all applicable environments.   The 22% increase in the payment scales of Reserve Force personnel has resulted in an increasingly positive response from call-ups.

69. DOD AR FY2010/11 69 Appendix D: Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont) Appendix D: Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont)   Continued loss of scarce skills (cont)   Implementation of the DOD retention strategy led to 18% decline in scarce skills exit compared to the previous financial year.   Other Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies: Identified and discussed in the Annual Report document (Appendix D, Page 137. These include:   Inadequate funding for human resource expenditure could result in a further burden on DOD’s budget vote/allocation.   In real terms, the buying power of the defence allocation is declining and will negatively impact on the Department’s performance and capital acquisitions.   Mitigation. The outcomes of the deputy minister’s task team on efficiency and effectiveness of the use of the budget will guide a way ahead to improve the situation.

70. DOD AR FY2010/11 70 Appendix D: Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont)   Other Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont)   Inadequate facility infrastructure maintenance and renovation capacity resulting in unacceptable facility repair and renovation backlog that detrimentally impacts on force preparation and employment.   Mitigation. The operationalisation of the DOD Works Formation is intended to mitigate this risk.   Incompatible ICT systems could result in ineffective and inefficient performance.   Mitigation. The improved funding of the DEIS and the role out of the DEIS master plan is intended to mitigate this risk.   Lack of single logistics management information system due to historic fragmentation system enhancements. This has led to inability to comply with NT asset management requirements including financial reporting leading to audit qualification.   Mitigation. The outcome of the LIRP and the role out of the IFMS are inspected to mitigate this risk however there is a short term implementation plan such as the restructuring of the asset management directorate. improved funding of the DEIS and the role out of the DEIS master plan is intended to mitigate this risk.

71. DOD AR FY2010/11 71 Appendix D: Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont)   Other Enterprise Risk and Mitigation Strategies (cont)   Non-compliance with legislation, e.g. certain aspects of the PFMA.   Mitigation. The DOD is in the process of establishing a compliance unit. Governance processes are being enhanced and disincentives and penalty measures are being considered for offenders.   Inadequate communication could lead to poor perceptions about the Department of Defence in the public domain.   Mitigation. The communication strategy has been approved and is being implemented.
