Strategic Framework Development - Project Preparation
From concept to execution, our expertise empowers projects with thorough preparation, expert guidance, and funding support, ensuring a seamless path to success.
The demand for infrastructure development is rising, but many projects struggle to secure funding due to poor preparation or budget issues. To address this, the we aim to collaborate with Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) and commercial banks to attract long-term capital, especially for projects in under-resourced municipalities and the private sector.
There’s typically an eight to nine-year gap between identifying projects and implementing them due to funding challenges. Our goal is to shorten this timeline by ensuring cost-effective funding from start to finish.
Projects are chosen based on their bankability, assessed early in their lifecycle, and must align with our mandate to support infrastructure development in energy, health, ICT, transport, water, sanitation, and climate mitigation sectors in South Africa, SADC, and other priority African countries.
Ultimately, the we have adopted a programmatic and strategic management approach to support infrastructure planning, implementation, and funding, including establishing and strengthening Programme Management Offices (PMOs).

Project Preparation Cycle
Project preparation involves identifying funding sources, assessing needs, consulting stakeholders, conducting socio-economic studies, and developing project concepts. It also includes tasks such as site assessment, land negotiation, participative planning, preliminary design, cost estimation, and seeking funding or partners. This process mainly occurs during pre-feasibility and feasibility phases, visualized in the project preparation cycle diagram.
