What we do

What we do

The IDT is mandated to support all spheres of government with social infrastructure management and programme implementation.  The IDT portfolio of programme is broadly categorised into social infrastructure programmes and social development programmes.

Social infrastructure programmes entail the provision and maintenance of infrastructure facilities that enable government to deliver social, basic and community services to its citizens. Social infrastructure projects include schools, Early Childhood Development Centres (ECDC), clinics, hospitals, courts, community halls, portable water and sanitation infrastructure, etc.

Expanded Public Works Programme

Social development programmes on the other hand, entail initiatives and development interventions that primarily facilitate job creation, poverty eradication, community enterprise support and community empowerment.  The programmes under this portfolio include initiatives like Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP) and Contractor Development Programme.

The National Development Plan (NDP)

Vision 2030

The IDT takes a special interest in policy positions which are relevant to its mandate. Currently, the most pertinent policy directive is the National Development Plan (NDP): Vision 2030, which is the country’s blueprint for national development. Its strategy is aligned to the government’s Medium Term Strategic Framework (MTSF) and the seven priorities of the sixth administration.  As part of this, the goal of the entity is to deliver quality accessible social infrastructure that contributes to the realisation of national priorities. As part of realising these goals, the entity will focus on the realisation of four outcomes, namely:

  • Increased access to quality social infrastructure
  • A transformed built environment
  • Decent employment through public employment programmes
  • A financially sustainable entity

Furthermore, the IDT takes cognisance of, and actively aligns its work to the National Infrastructure Plan (NIP) and directly contributes to the following Strategic Integrated Plans (SIPs) under the NIP:

  • SIP 6: Integrated Municipal Infrastructure Project
  • SIP 12: Revitalisation of Public Hospitals and other Health Facilities
  • SIP 13: National School Build Programme.
  • SIP 14: Higher Education Infrastructure.

Both the NDP and the NIP enjoin the IDT to contribute to the national agenda 2030 by:

  • Fostering balanced economic development;
  • Unlocking economic opportunities;
  • Promoting mineral extraction and beneficiation;
  • Promoting job creation; and
  • Facilitating the integration of human settlements and economic development.
