1. OVERVIEW

The University of South Africa (UNISA) is a public higher education institution governed in terms of the

Higher Education Act, 101 of 1997, as amended.

The Facilities Management Department strives to provide the physical and educational environment that

is easily accessible to enable learning to take place. The Department has a goal to ef fectively manage,

maintain and expand the inf rastructure of Unisa within country’s relevant f ramework, policies, directives

and legislation. The Department’s Project Management Directorate is responsible for the management

of the University Estates inf rastructure development and refurbishments projects. This includes

engaging the University community and external specialists to ensure that projects are executed in line

with the planned budget timelines by applying project management principles and contract management

to achieve this objective. The Project Directorate has the responsibility to provide delivery capabilities

for the refurbishment and expansion of the Unisa property portfolio in conjunction with Property

Management Directorate; while the Maintenance Directorate assumes the role of “maintainer of

operability” to all facilities.

Given its huge mandate as def ined above, Facilities Management (University Estates) is expected to

roll out various construction project ranging f rom green-f ield, OHS compliance, and

renovation/refurbishment projects across Unisa campuses and Regional centres. In addition, the

Department of Higher Education & Training has allocated funds over the coming three-year period,

2018/19 to 2020/21 as partial funding for a number of projects.

Consistent with UNISA’s 2030 strategy, UNISA’s Campus Master Plan has identif ied a need to expand

the current on-site and of f -site accommodation to provide modern multi-use accommodation options.

The aim is to create access to a safe and secure environment by providing modern, f lexible, multi-use

facilities, at a reasonable market related cost. In addition, to create on and of f -site space that services a

wide range of stakeholders, including staf f, students, and external users.

Notwithstanding the adoption of the Project Lifecycle methodology as a tool for ef fective delivery of

inf rastructure projects, the Facilities Management (FM) department does not have suf f icient human

resources capacity with adequate experience to execute major cap ital projects using the PMO lifecycle

methodology

To respond to our vision of being an African University shaping futures in the service of humanity, UNISA

has decided to engage in partnerships with private or public institutions on major inf rastructure projects

where the university’s resources are limited. This will allow the university to deliver f irst class facilities in

line with the functional requirements.

Given the above def iciencies; the Facilities Management Department has resolved to appoint an external

Project Management Company to of fer professional expertise and assistance with the rollout of the large

capital projects in the coming four years and other cross-functional professional technical and advisory

services as and when required. The appointed service provider will be required to bring its own personnel

Page 4: The University of South Africa invites suitably qualified ... · • Document Control/Management • Risk and Opportunity Management • Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental

Specifications for PMO Services

to complement the Departmental capacity def iciencies, and furthermore conduct skills transfer to the

Department’s existing staf f members.

This EOI therefore calls for a suitably qualif ied service provider to support UNISA in the maturation of

the PMO lifecycle methodology, through the establishment of a dedicated ‘Project Management Of f ice’

(PMO) staf fed with project management and related professionals in the built environment over the

period of 4 years. The PMO will over the 4 year period, act as the owners Engineer in the delivery of

four build projects namely the Johannesburg Learner Centre, Umtata Regional Centre, Nelspruit

Regional Centre and the Uvongo Regional Centre, providing specif ic technical and advisory built

environment project management expertise to UNISA on a dedicated and on an as and when required

basis on other projects It is envisaged that the four build projects will be delivered by an EPC contract

on an EPC Turnkey Projects Agreement or similar. The EPC Contractor will take ultimate responsibility

for delivering the f it for the purpose projects in accordance to the employer’s specif ications. The PMO

will be a f irm or JV with a full required built environment project management and related professional

services which include, but may not be limited to,

• Project Management

• Planning and Integration Management

• Architect/s

• Design Engineer/s

• Transaction advisory

• Construction Management

• Engineering Management

• Contract Management

• Stakeholder Management

• Document Control/Management

• Risk and Opportunity Management

• Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental (SHEQ) Management

The PMO must be strategically and ef f iciently capacitated with experienced experts in their respective

professions and only a service provider, entity or consortium that can provide all the required

multidisciplinary skills and capacity, to constitute such the PMO, may apply.

The PMO service provider should have in their organisation skilled project management and related

professionals in the built environment who can be mobilised at short notice (1-week notice) to meet the

specif ic project lifecycle phase to correspond with the needs that will arise at various stages of the

portfolio of project/s. This implies that the PMO service provider is to actively participate in managing

the capacity requirements of the PMO.

13.4 The structure of the PMO

13.4.1 The PMO Team Lead

The PMO should have the PMO team lead who will report directly to the Director Project Management

Directorate and responsible for supporting the Director in ensuring that the PMO lifecycle methodology is

adopted across Facilities Management, that all projects executed by Facilities Management department follows

the lifecycle model and that PMO functions ef f iciently and ef fectively, interfaces and supports UNISA to manage

the delivery of inf rastructure projects.

The PMO should be capacitated with skilled professionals in phases to correspond with the needs that will arise

at various stages of the project. This implies that the PMO team lead is to actively participate in managing the

capacity requirements of the PMO as and when required.

The PMO will have delegated authority f rom UNISA to manage and represent the UNISA.

Together with the Director, the PMO team lead will be the face of the PMO and may be required to represent

the FM department on PMO issues in any senior management or stakeholder forum as and when requested.

Page 16: The University of South Africa invites suitably qualified ... · • Document Control/Management • Risk and Opportunity Management • Health, Safety, Quality, and Environmental

13.5 Skills development

One of the critical success factors of the PMO service provider is the successful adoption of the PMO lifecycle

model across the University Facilities Department. To this ef fect, the PMO will have to seamlessly integrate with

the Facilities Management day to day operations. UNISA will assign personnel f rom the department to the PMO

with the purpose of developing their skills and prof iciency in managing large projects , and eventually take over

the functions of the PMO.

The PMO service provider will be required to facilitate the development of these personnel so that they become

acquainted and prof icient with the operations of the PMO and all the phases of the project management lifecycle

model. To ensure that ef fective knowledge and skills transfer take place, the PMO service provider will sign

knowledge transfer/ skills transfer compacts with the assigned Facilities Management Department personnel,

that will be reported on and reviewed at pre-agreed intervals over the duration of the project. While formal

training intervention is required, the PMO service provider will advise accordingly and the in-house UNISA staff

training processes and policies will be followed for such training.

Specifications for PMO Services

13.6 PMO Performance Management

The performance of the PMO will be measured two-fold on a regular basis to ensure:

1. That the UNISA’s strategic objectives and goals in relation to the execution of projects are met

2. The ef fectiveness on the PMO in:

a. Implementing of the full PMO Lifecycle Methodology

b. Accuracy of technical and advisory services

c. Impact and ef fectiveness of skills transfer interventions and practices to the Facilities Management

(FM) Department’s personnel

d. Impact and ef fectiveness of project controls in FM’s operations

The following is the initial key performance metrics for measuring the above and may be subject to change as

and when it becomes necessary in the execution of the scope of services.

Key Performance Areas (KPA) refers to the areas of performance the professional is responsible for and the

Key Performance Indicators (KPI) refers to the measure of impact and ef fectiveness of the controls in achieving

the key objectives of the PMO. The measure is the tool that will be used to determine the ef fectiveness and

impact. KPIs will include both qualitative and quantitative indicators and targets will be agreed with the

successful service provider before the contract commences. The rating scale will be as follows.

STANDARD RATING SCALE

5

Outstanding

Exceptional performance in all areas of responsibility. Planned objectives were achieved well above the established standards and accomplishments were achieved in unexpected areas.

4

Exceeds expectations

Consistently exceeds established standards in most areas of responsibility. All requirements were met, and objectives were achieved above the established standards.

3

Meets expectations

All job requirements were met, and planned objectives were accomplished within established standards. There were no critical areas where accomplishments were less than planned.

2

Needs improvement

Performance in one or more critical areas does not meet expectations. Not all planned objectives were accomplished within the established standards and some responsibilities were not completely met.

1

Does not meet minimum standards
