Introduction 2003 was a “landmark” year for the BCITO:

• we achieved the grand target of 5000 trainees [ie in training at any one time] in late November – effectively a 56% increase over a 2 year period. That’s a great lift in training numbers, and meant we had to work hard to keep up with industry demand;

• we also worked hard to implement the 2003 Strategy & Business Plan, which sought to fix and improve a number of areas within the BCITO so that we set the right foundation for the next few years ahead;

• we worked with our sector to prepare a Charter for the BCITO, a new requirement arising from recent changes to the legislation affecting ITOs.

These three factors taken together meant for an extremely busy year for everyone within – and associated with – the BCITO. This 2004 Strategy & Business Plan builds on that momentum generated in 2003, implements the BCITO Charter, and follows the same format working across the following 7 business areas:

1. Strategic context and orientation;

2. Right training & qualifications;

3. Robust quality assurance;

4. “Smart, snazzy, cool” marketing & communications;

5. Excellent customer service;

6. Stakeholders “flying in formation”;

7. Operational strength. Probably the key external influence for the BCITO in 2004 will be the proposed introduction of a licensing regime for the building sector, and we will be working with the Government and departmental officials as the licensing regime is developed. The BCITO’s work is increasingly being influenced by the Government’s Tertiary Education Strategy 2002-2007 [TES] and Statement of Tertiary Education Priorities 2003-2004 [STEP]. The TES’ six strategies and STEP priorities are woven throughout the detailed work streams and activities that appear in the 2004 Plan. Finally, the work we do involves a broad range of industry partners and stakeholders. We worked to rebuild and strengthen relationships with a number of our key stakeholders during 2003 – and we look forward to continuing to work with our partners this coming year.

2004 Objectives & Action Plans As highlighted in the Introduction on page 3, the BCITO’s 2004 Strategy & Business Plan builds on the 7 key areas as first introduced in 2003 – ie 2004 is a year of consolidation and continuation of these 7 overarching objectives:

1. Strategic context and orientation – ensuring the BCITO is “aware” of the strategic environment it is operating in and pursues opportunities where appropriate to influence that environment;

2. Right qualifications & training – ensuring the BCITO has the right suite of

qualifications that matches industry need and the right mix of training tools/options to support those qualifications;

3. Robust quality assurance – making sure that BCITO trainees are being taught to

the right outcome and level of consistency, both on-job and off-job, right around the country;

4. “Smart, snazzy, cool” marketing & communications – ensuring the BCITO

markets appropriately to prospective trainees/apprentices and employers, and communicates effectively with our sector and industry stakeholders;

5. Excellent customer service – continuing our strong industry linkages (through our

national and regional advisory groups) and the direct “face to face” relationship our regional network of training advisers have with our customers; we will again target a minimum of 15% annual growth in trainee numbers for the coming year;

6. Stakeholders “flying in formation” – working closely with the Industry Training

Federation, other key ITOs [both within CAPITA and others], key industry associations and other stakeholders to ensure that, as much as possible, we’re all working towards the same objectives/outcomes;

7. Operational strength – getting the basics of the BCITO business right, particularly in

the areas of people (HR) and IT. The pages that follow give details as to the actions to be taken under each of these seven headings.

1. Strategic context & orientation

As noted in the introduction to this 2004 Strategy & Business Plan, the proposed introduction of a licensing regime for the building sector will have significant implications for the BCITO as well as the sector at large. A key project in this area requires our continued input into the policy work being undertaken by the Government and officials to implement industry licensing. Further, the broader policy environment for ITOs will continue to change over the medium term. As the Tertiary Education Commission [TEC] continues its review and reform of the tertiary sector and implements the Tertiary Education Strategy (TES), there will be on-going implications for the BCITO and the strategic focus we take. It is important that the BCITO is not only responsive to those changes but that it gives input to the change process. We initiated work in 2003 on developing a “docking station model” whereby related ITOs could club together to improve training outcomes for the industries we represent, and to reduce administration and compliance costs. We will continue that work with construction-related ITOs into 2004. The other key objective is further development of a Maori Training Policy for the BCITO, building on the work we did as part of a broader Industry Training Federation project in 2003.

2. Right qualifications & training

It is critically important that the BCITO has the right industry qualifications matching industry need (contributing to Strategies Three and Four of the TES). The four key projects under this objective centre on:

• commencing work on the development of an industry training strategy, as required by recent changes to section 6(c) of the Industry Training Act;

• ensuring the BCITO’s qualification development programme is properly resourced and actioned;

• continuing to extend the BCITO’s qualifications coverage into areas not previously covered by us before; and

• working on an e-learning project – with the intention of converting the BCITO’s National Certificate of Carpentry Integrated Learning Package into an e-learning resource [depending on our securing TEC eCDF funding in support of the project].

3. Robust quality assurance

The BCITO has an Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan that sets out a five yearly timetable underpinning the BCITO’s moderation and accreditation activities. The AMAP is reviewed on an on-going basis, given that it needs to take into account what’s actually happening on the ground. Moderation is becoming an increasingly important focus for the BCITO, even more so given the increasing number of people teaching/training to our material, including: • 188 active accredited providers • potentially 420 schools • 3000+ on-site employers • 5000+ on-site trainees The key project this year is completion of a strategic review of the moderation area and determining the right resourcing and capability for this very important part of the BCITO business.

4. “Smart, snazzy, cool” marketing/communications

The ‘skills market’ is becoming increasingly competitive – both between industries (for example, the building sector competes with the civil construction and transport sectors for workers – both skilled and un-skilled) and within industries. It is important the BCITO has:

• a clear brand strategy, so that people know what the BCITO stands for and that the use of our brand is consistent and professional;

• a marketing strategy, particularly to employers and schools – with the key change for 2004 being a proposed kit for young people interested in a career in the construction sector;

• simple, useful, clear and modern marketing products. The 2004 Business Plan builds on the success of the work completed in 2003.

5. Excellent customer service

Client servicing and satisfaction (both employer and trainee/apprentice) are key requirements for the BCITO to maintain its operations on a sustainable – and growing – basis. We will continue with our strong focus on ensuring we have the right number of capable staff working “in-the-field” to properly service our clients. As well as direct client servicing, the BCITO prides itself on strong industry input through its National and Regional Advisory Groups – professional servicing of these Groups is also critical. The BCITO has a Modern Apprenticeship role – both directly as an MA Coordinator, and indirectly in terms of working with other MA Coordinators – and we need to continue to meet the appropriate service expectations. Finally, the BCITO continues to target on-going trainee number growth of 15%, building on the growth we achieved in 2004.

5.1 Achieve 15% trainee number growth targets

Actions: • Continue to improve focus on marketing to specialist trade areas, in conjunction with NAGs • Monitor and report trainee volumes monthly internally and at each Board/NAG meeting

6. Stakeholders “Flying in Formation”

The BCITO can not achieve all of its objectives without working with other sector stakeholders. It is critically important that, where possible, all these stakeholders ‘fly in formation’ – such that we are all working towards the same objective(s), rather than working at cross purposes, as much as is practicable. The BCITO is also looking to work closely/collaborate with other ITOs to ensure appropriate level of cost efficiencies, economies of scale, and market leverage are achieved. Finally, we will continue to support the work of the Industry Training Federation, the umbrella body for all ITOs.

7. Operational strength

Finally, there are a number of internal policies and systems that need to be working efficiently and effectively to support the work of the BCITO, particularly the BCITO’s people (HR) policies and IT systems. This BCITO objective contributes towards Strategy One of the Government’s Tertiary Education Strategy – Strengthen System Capability and Quality. In 2003 we completed development of an HR Strategy, and 2004 will largely be about properly implementing that Strategy. In 2003 we also did substantive work on an IT Strategy, implementing new (and integrated) financial and trainee database software. In 2004 – depending on the success of a pilot trial in our Central North Island region – we will be extending use of the trainee database to our field staff through the use of Tablet PCs, as well as extending the functionality of the software. We will also continue with the revamping of our website, continuing to lift its appeal and usability. We didn’t manage to start our Business Continuity policy project in 2003, and so that has been brought across into 2004.

Approximately:

• 15 percent of the employers in the industry sectors we cover are involved in formalised training [up from 13% in 2003];

• 25 percent of employees are involved in industry training [up from 16% in 2003];

• 32% of people working in the industry sectors we cover are trade trained [2001 Census] – a figure which should rise as more people complete their training with the BCITO.

The weathertightness issue – and related to it the issue of industry licensing – is likely to have a major bearing on these levels of penetration in future years, depending on which sectors of the industry are to covered by licensing requirements.

4. Market Share

We have an estimated 95 percent market share – ie of those involved in formalised training in the sectors we cover, 95% complete their training through the BCITO.

5. Competitive Situation

While the BCITO is the recognised industry training organisation and standards setting body for the building and construction sector, the threat of new entrants and substitutes is relatively high. The ITAB scheme has gained some momentum in Auckland through Unitec, and has continued to extend into other centres. Conversely, a number of off-job training providers have re-aligned themselves with the BCITO and are using BCITO training resources and materials to teach their courses.

We are keen to pursue opportunities to ‘re-unite’ the apprenticeship courses available to the building and construction sectors, so that confusion for our clients – builders and trainees/apprentices – is minimised.

6. Swot Analysis

Current Corporate Strategies

Ø Building and sub-trade coverage

Ø Pan-industry representation, together with appropriate level of independence from the Registered Master Builders Federation

Ø Increasing involvement with key trade associations

Ø Retaining charitable tax status with IRD

Ø On-going refinement of Integrated Learning with Employment Package resource materials – including exploring the option of e-learning – and extending concept to other trade resource packages

Ø Substantial Government funding of organisation through STM funding

Page 27: 2004 Strategy

C:\Documents and Settings\dorothy.BCITO\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK32\2004 Business Plan v5.doc

Page 27 of 35

Ø Main focus on new entrants to industry, but with increasing industry interest in Recognition of Current Competence (RCC) for those with existing skills

Ø Increasing on job and off job training options

Differential Strengths

Ø Comprehensive technical trade qualifications

Ø National network of field staff

Ø Substantial industry ownership/input

Ø Adequate Government funding – with the Government committed to increasing the BCITO’s STM rate to the average STM rate – ie from $2200 per STM in 2003, to $2675 in 2004, and an estimated $3100 in 2005 [all $ GST exclusive]

Ø Established customer base – 2700 employers and 5000 plus trainees/apprentices

Ø Efficient credit collection and registration system

Ø Sound qualifications and resource materials development capability

Ø Good staff retention

Ø Modern Apprenticeship Coordinator role

Ø High market share in carpentry

Ø Tertiary Education Commission (TEC) recognition (December 2002)

Differential Weaknesses

Ø Relatively poor numbers training in specialist trade areas, although numbers have improved in some areas [eg PPCS, Cement & Concrete] in 2003

Ø Relative dependence on carpentry product

Ø Government funding comprises the substantive portion of the BCITO’s funding

Ø Quality control varies

Ø Risk of varying service delivery in regions

Ø Lack of industry/public awareness of organisation and products

Ø Relationship with some training providers poor

Ø Lack of formal integrated career/training pathway for new entrants and existing industry workforce

Ø Slow response to required changes in industry training Opportunities

Ø Development of new qualifications to meet industry need, including non-technical qualifications – eg supervisors, scaffolding, small business management

Ø Database of former employers involved in training

Ø Database of prospective employers

Ø Size of Auckland market

Ø Relative market/industry stability for next 3-5 years

Ø Implementation of comprehensive RCC procedure for existing workforce

Ø Limited credit packages for specialist trade areas

Ø Improved marketing of vocational training generally, and marketing of the building sector specifically, including the promotion of trade training as an alternative to university and polytechnic study

Ø Extension of non technical training to non carpentry sectors of industry

Page 28: 2004 Strategy

C:\Documents and Settings\dorothy.BCITO\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK32\2004 Business Plan v5.doc

Page 28 of 35

Ø Encouraging training providers to use BCITO training material, so that irrespective of training option followed, core training is the same

Ø Involvement with CAPITA as a vehicle for joint initiatives in industry training to reduce costs and share resources, including further work on the “docking station” proposal

Ø Development of joint venture initiatives with key stakeholders in industry training – eg BRANZ, Standards, and BIA

Ø Increasing industry user pays for targeted training

Ø Increased training volumes arising from the weathertightness issue and/or industry licensing

Ø Working with Certified Builders to encourage re-unification of apprenticeship training

Ø E-learning options for the industry and the BCITO’s role

Threats/Risks

Ø Opposition from (and provision of competing training products by) certain training providers, particularly Unitec

Ø ITaB promotion through Certified Builders

Ø Alternative practical training administration and RCC by other polytechnics/providers

Ø Increase in demand by other ITOs for Government funding

Ø Trade training least attractive option for school leavers

Ø Unitec group training scheme in Auckland

B. Government’s Tertiary Education Strategy 2002-2007 - Overview The Government’s inaugural Tertiary Education Strategy for the 2002-2007 period contains the following six over-arching strategies: • Strategy One: Strengthen System Capability and Quality – National goals cannot

be achieved unless we enhance the strategic capability and robustness of the tertiary education system as a whole.

• Strategy Two: Te Rautaki Matauranga Maori – Contribute to the Achievement of

Maori Development Aspirations – We need to recognise the unique position of Maori as Treaty partners, and the huge significance that learning and education has for Maori communities. This strategy addresses issues related to skill development, research and capability-building for Maori.

• Strategy Three: Raise Foundation Skills so that all People can Participate in our

Knowledge Society – Improving foundation skills (literacy, numeracy and other basic skills) will ensure that more New Zealanders are able to participate effectively in the economic and social benefits of our vision for national development.

• Strategy Four: Develop the Skills New Zealanders need for our Knowledge

Society – This strategy recognises that we will need high-level generic skills in much of the populace, and more highly-specialist skills in areas of comparative advantage, for New Zealand to accelerate its transformation into a knowledge society.

• Strategy Five: Educate for Pacific Peoples’ Development and Success – Pacific

peoples represent a significant and rapidly-growing proportion of New Zealand’s population. This strategy addresses issues relating to Pacific people’s capability needs and skill development that will ensure their success and development.

• Strategy Six: Strengthen Research, Knowledge Creation and Uptake for our

Knowledge Society – This strategy recognises that research and innovation are key drivers of modern economies, and also that the broader application of new knowledge will enable the achievement of social, environmental and infrastructural goals.

C. Risk Analysis & Management In December 2003 the BCITO Board adopted a risk management policy which requires the BCITO’s business planning and ongoing management processes to be cognisant of the risks facing the organisation and ensuring these are addressed appropriately. The BCITO policy extensively adopts and applies AS/NZS 4360:1999 and the associated handbook “Guidelines for managing risk in the Australian and New Zealand public sector” [SAA/SNZ HB143:1999]. The following flow-chart outlines the BCITO’s approach to risk management: Evaluate & Rank Risk:

• Likelihood of risk happening • Magnitude/impact of consequence

The 3 key methods the BCITO will deploy to manage risk are:

• Medium/long term and/or foreseeable risks

Develop policies – either approved by the Board as a ‘governance policy’ or adopted by management as an ‘operational policy’ – to prohibit or require certain actions, depending on the risk involved; or Include specific projects within the annual Business Plan to address or cover the particular risk.

Policy [P] BusPlan [BP]

• Short term

and/or unforeseeable risks

Require the Chief Executive to report to the Board on a regular basis on risk issues within and across the BCITO.

D. Organisational History As a result of the Industry Training Act 1992, the BCITO was established in 1993 as a trading division of the Industrial Association of Employers. The organisational form chosen was that of an incorporated society, the members of which were 19 Regional Master Builder Associations and 3 Regional Industrial Associations of Employers.

In 2001 the IAE approved a new Constitution, changed the name of the incorporated society to the Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation Inc, and introduced a category of “Association Members” solely responsible for electing the Directors of the BCITO.

In June 2003 the BCITO adopted revisions to its constitution by which it became a charitable organisation, so that it is no longer assessable for tax on any surplus it makes.

1. Systematically identify and control all hazards in our places of work. Where there are significant hazards we will take all practicable steps to eliminate, isolate and or minimise these hazards to prevent injury or damage.

2. Inform all employees of these hazards and the hazard controls. 3. Ensure all employees are properly trained and supervised. 4. Inform all employees of emergency procedures and evacuation procedures. 5. Record and investigate all incidents and accidents in our place of work, and take all

practicable steps to prevent these events from happening.
