SUMMARY:Engineering\, Procurement & Construction Management
DESCRIPTION:The Engineering Procurement & Construction (EPC) industry plays an important role in the South African economy. The industry regulates infrastructure in the country\, involves many stakeholders and is therefore a large source of employment.  \nEffective tendering is considered to be the cornerstone of EPC industry. There are many reasons why EPC projects lose money\, one of them is bad contracts which cost companies millions of rands. This can also lead to senior executives losing their jobs. \nRegulation 1 of the CIDB Act defines construction procurement as “procurement in the construction industry\, including the invitation\, award and management of contracts”. It is critical for the industry to collaborate and identify vital and innovative procurement practices to make a positive difference in project delivery. \nToday’s engineering procurement and construction industry is uniquely challenging. Government and industry participants generally agree that the implementation of e-procurement system will enhance the overall quality of The public sector tender and procurement landscape therefore successful implementation of innovative e-Solutions\, such as e-Tendering\, requires careful consideration. \nThis conference will be a platform for key industry leaders to discuss standards and regulation\, strategies\, costs and risk reduction\, challenges and opportunities related to projects in EPC. Delegates will hear case studies from major construction companies\, learning the latest innovation and trends in construction procurement. \nThe conference will also provide industry and public sector practitioners to engage in issues impacting the procurement of construction projects contracts. \nThis is a must attend event for persons involved in the EPC industry. \n  \nFor more information or to register\, email karabo@businesssuccess.co.za or call 011 472 1035

SUMMARY:IMESA Conference
DESCRIPTION:With all the challenges facing the industry today\, whether these are economic\, social\, environmental or political\, engineers need to adapt and be innovative. This starts with the local authorities\, where most of professionals perform some function to serve South Africa’s communities. It goes beyond the government corridors – it stretches into the ideas and solutions for taking municipal engineering into the future as envisaged and created by the engineers in South Africa. \nThe IMESA Trade Exhibition has grown steadily over the past 80 years and has become a very important feature of the IMESA conferences. The exhibition is always one of the major reasons why delegates attend IMESA conferences. \nThe theme for 2016 is “Siyaphambili – Engineering the future”.
