Our team is committed to contributing to the local economic development in RSA. Our focus will be to involve and develop local enterprises and to expose local students to the projects (‘in-house training/development’ + ‘job-shadowing’) and disciplines related to the projects.
The local partners in our team are currently employing local small businesses for specific tasks on projects and will continue this relationship and expand where possible.
Siroccon International (Pty) Ltd’s procure goods and services from mainly local suppliers and the multiplying effect on the local businesses has a major impact to enhance local economic development. A number of students from the local communities are employed and/or are in training.
We envisage that we could employ local labour during the preliminary and detail design stages to assist with fieldwork and during the construction stage with the construction monitoring.
We fully support objectives related to local job creation and procurement from local suppliers during construction. To this extent, we will carefully consider construction methods in our designs and identify specific packages of work that can be subcontracted to local smaller contractors. In this regard, we will closely liaise with SMME’s to assist with the identification of and optimizing the use of local labour. Some of our team members are also well experienced in period/month-based Construction Contracts and this knowledge will be employed to the benefit of the project. We could also assist with fund applications to assist with the training of local labour, as may be required.
A vast portion of materials can be procured from local suppliers such as local quarries, brick suppliers, steel and aluminum elements, paving bricks, etc. Once the type and scope of a project are known, more detail can be developed to ensure that the bulk of materials are procured locally.
