BICA PRESIDENT FOREWORD
As the 2010-2012 strategy period draws to a close, I look back with Pride and satisfaction that the strategy has given a much needed direction and focus to steer the institute. The last 3 years have been a key period for the Institute, seeing through the transition from BIA to BICA through the enactment of the Accountants Act 2010 and formation of Botswana’s first Professional Chartered Accountancy qualification.
I wish to express my sincere appreciation to our Past Presidents, BICA Council Members and management for their efforts in rolling out the strategy and making BICA what it is today. Special appreciation to go to Ministry of Finance and Development Planning, the World Bank and Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales for their guidance and support through the
process and most importantly to our stakeholders, members and the Public for all the confidence and support to the profession. To refresh, the 2010-2012 strategy was built on 4 key pillars, namely BICA Qualification, Governance and Capacity, Standards, codes & procedures and Continuous Professional Education initiatives.
The tangible results seen after the first strategy period urged the Council to proceed with the next strategy. In 2012, the BICA Council commissioned a strategy refresh session and this was actively led by the BICA Management through a 3 day interactive session, which involved consultations with BICA Council members, past presidents and some key stakeholders. The session was commenced after a stakeholder consultation session through an internal questionnaire. The output of the strategy session, which was done using a balance scorecard approach, was a 4 year strategy for the period 2013-16. The document was put through a stakeholder session in November 2012 and after incorporating the valuable stakeholder comments was approved by Council later in November 2012. I would like to thank all who took part in this session/consultations and offering us their valuable insights, experience and views. Thanks to Innolead consulting for facilitating this session (and the previous strategy session 2010-12)
With a vision “to be the leading accountancy professional body with an internationally recognised professional accountancy qualification”, the current strategy outlines qualitative and quantitative targets to achieve the BICA vision and mission. The targets are tracked from results, process, people and stakeholders perspective and have 4 key focus areas, namely,
• Positioning the BICA Qualification and Brand, • Increasing the number of BICA members and professional accountants in Botswana, • Ensuring that BICA attains sustainability and • Improving the Services that BICA offers To requote a famous saying “Take time to deliberate, but when the time for action comes, stop thinking and go in”. Amidst the current challenging times, BICA has taken bold steps and it is

Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
imperative to drive further with a unified desire for success. We believe this strategy would assist BICA to achieve the competitive targets that have been set
On behalf of BICA Council and myself, I wish the BICA Leadership a great success.
Welcome to BICA strategy 2013-16. PULA.

1. THE STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
The methodology followed to develop the BICA strategy is aligned to, in addition to other best practice methodologies, the Balanced Scorecard Premium Execution Process as developed by Kaplan and Norton1. It aims to create an integrated, closed loop, strategic management process that links strategy formulation and planning with operational execution.
Figure 1: Kaplan and Norton Premium Execution Process
This strategy document covers phases 1, 2 and 3 and was developed using the Innolead Consulting Strategy Facilitation Workshop (SFW®) process which as described next;
1The Execution Premium, Robert Kaplan and David Norton, August 2008

Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
Figure 2: Innolead SFW® Process
Step 1- Determine Strategic Destination
The organisation’s management develops the strategy using Internal Analysis, External Analysis, Future Analysis and other applicable tools.
Step 2- Develop/Describe the Strategy
The organisation plans its strategy using the Strategy Map tool. The Strategy Map articulates the organisation’s strategy from explicit cause and effect relationships between the identified strategic objectives. In addition to being an effective strategy planning tool, the strategy map, with the Balanced Scorecard described next, serves as a powerful strategy management and strategy communication tool.
Step 3- Translate the Strategy
The Strategy Map is used as a framework to translate the strategy into operational terms through the development of a balanced scorecard and the identification of the initiatives that will drive performance. This will be used to measure strategy performance during implementation.
Step 4- Align Management to the Strategy
The Strategy is cascaded to develop aligned scorecards for all functional and support units in the organisation. This will ensure that all units understand how they contribute to the successful implementation of the strategy.
Step 5- Manage Performance
The functional and support scorecards are linked to the individual performance management process to develop aligned performance contracts for all employees. This ensures that all employees understand how they are expected to contribute to strategy implementation through their everyday operational activities and involvement in strategic projects.
The rest of this document follows the structure of the process described above.

2. BICA STRATEGY EXPECTATIONS & ASSUMPTIONS
2.1 BICA Strategy Expectations:
The BICA Strategy aims to fulfil the following expectations:
1. To develop a clear understanding of the organisation’s “Current Reality” or “As Is”.
2. To paint a clear picture of where the organisation aspires to go and how.
3. To identify what may hinder the organisation achieving its goals and how these barriers will be
removed.
4. To answer the question- Who are BICA’s customers and stakeholders and what is the organisation’s
value proposition to them?
5. To provide an understanding of the industry’s competitive environment.
6. To address the organisation’s long term sustainability.
7. To ensure that BICA has the right organisational structure and human resources to implement the
strategy.

9. To ensure that BICA will have the right leadership to drive the strategy.
10. To establish the right BICA culture.
2.2 BICA Strategy Assumptions:
The BICA Strategy is based on the following assumptions:
1. There are sufficient financial and human resources to execute the strategy.
2. The organisation has the required infrastructure.
3. The Botswana Government and ICAEW will continue to support BICA for the duration of
this strategy.
4. There will be continuity in the key BICA team.
5. There will be buy-in and commitment to the strategy from the management and Council.
6. The Botswana economy will continue to experience a shortage of professional accountants
for the strategy period and beyond.

3. THE BICA VISION, MISSION AND CORE VALUE STATEMENTS
3.1 BICA Vision 2016
This vision statement captures BICA’s “desired future state”- what the organisation aspires to be:
3.2 BICA Mission
The BICA mission is a brief statement that defines why BICA exists. It describes the fundamental purpose of the organisation, especially what it provides for its clients and key stakeholders.
3.3 BICACore Values
To protect public interest through:
* Promoting the accountancy profession
* Facilitating quality professional accountancy services through the
monitoring and regulation of professional accountants
* Developing professional accountants
11
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
3.3 BICA Core Values
The core values represent the attitudes, behaviours and characters that will create an enabling environment for the successful implementation of the strategy.
12
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
4. BICA CURRENT REALITY
Vision alone is not enough. It is only by starting with an honest and diligent effort to determine the
truth of your current situation that the decisions you need to make become self-evident- Jim Collins-
Good to Great
The “Current Reality” covers both internal and external factors to determine the “AS IS” environment. It is the departure point for charting the desired strategic direction for the organisation. In this section the BICA current reality has been analysed through the following 5 categories:
Distinctive Competencies Competitive Advantages Internal Structures Major Current Concerns Stakeholder Emerging Requirements
4.1 The Distinctive Competencies of BICA
Distinctive competencies are defined as any knowledge, skills, attitudes, capabilities and values that make BICA unique from its competitors.
4.2 BICA’s Competitive Advantages What is the combination of elements in the BICA model which enable it to better satisfy the needs of its customers and stakeholders and achieve its strategic goals in the process? What enables the organization to thrive?
The legal backing through the Accountants Act No 12 of 2010 and the Financial Reporting Act No 11 of 2010.
The Continuous Professional Development (CPD) services that BICA provides to its members
The financial support of the Government of Botswana
The strategic partnership with ICAEW
The BICA provides a more ‘fit for purpose’ qualification (not a ‘one size fits all’ as with
other qualifications) that its local competitors are not in a position to match.
BICA is the only professional body whose members are allowed to conduct audits in the country
The BICA is uniquely positioned to provide practical work experience (supervised and monitored) through approved training employers in support of its qualification.
13
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
4.3 Major Current Concerns about BICA The following were identified as the major issues of concern for the achievement of this strategy:
4.4 Structural Factors that enable or hinder BICA from Operating Effectively
Structural factors that enable or hinder BICA to function effectively (processes policies, practices, mental models, assumptions/culture etc.)
4.4.1 Structural Factors that Enable
The Accountants Act No 12 of 2010
The current BICA Policies and Procedures
The BICA Secretariat has been significantly strengthened through the recent
addition of new positions to the structure.
BICA has a highly experienced Council and the support of practicing members
The BICA brand is new and thus presents an opportunity to position it favourably in the market through the right marketing and branding.
BICA does not have sufficient human resources to implement the strategy.
Current BICA pass-rates are low. This has been primarily attributed to the compulsory
requirement to study and work simultaneously, the calibre of the current student pool
as well as other challenges in the delivery of the qualification.
There is a high compliance to standards burden as a result of an onerous regulatory framework. This situation is expected to worsen going forward as the trend towards increasing regulation continues.
The BICA is currently over-dependent on its strategic partners, other service providers and the Government of Botswana
It will not be easy to position the BICA brand to compete against the more established competition. BICA will not be able to effectively compete if it does not attain reciprocity for its qualifications.
The organisation has not done enough research to adequately inform its
understanding of its client’s needs.
The BICA does not get enough support from non-practice firms. There is inadequate participation of citizens in the Institute.
BICA is negatively affected by the Government’s slow turnaround times such as decision making, disbursement of funds, etc.
The organisation has not developed an examination question bank to mitigate against
unforeseen events.
14
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
4.4.2 Structural factors that Hinder
The Institute does not have sufficient IT systems to support the effective execution of its business processes
A number of the committee structures have overtime, become ineffective
resulting in bureaucracy and delayed decision making.
Inadequate “market intelligence” as a result of not conducting market and
customer research.
The BICA remuneration structure is currently linked to that of the Government
and this constrains the organisation’s ability to attract and retain key skills.
4.5 Emerging Stakeholder Requirements
Emerging Stakeholder requirements are trends, patterns and other key driving forces in BICA’s
operating environment.
A. BICA Key Stakeholder
B. Identified BICA Emerging Stakeholder Needs, Trends & Patterns
Increased public interest protection expectations from the wider society
Increased legislation and standards (e.g. The establishment of the Botswana
Accountancy Oversight Authority (BAOA)
The need for clients to absorb continuously increasing fees (fee pressure)
Companies continue to appreciate the need for a well-established accountancy
function
Continued shortage of accountants in the market
The emergence of other professions that the youth perceive as more appealing.
An increased number of unemployed graduates are excluded from government funding

5. THE BICA STRATEGY MAP
The strategy map describes the BICA strategy through the chosen objectives and measures. The measures
link together in a chain of cause and effect from the performance drivers in the Resources and People
perspective all the way to the Business Results perspective. The cause and effect linkages outline the
specific path that BICA will follow to achieve the Strategy and hence clearly articulate the BICA strategy
story. It is therefore the how of the strategy that shows the path that BICA will chart from its Current
Reality towards the Vision.
Strategy implies the movement of an organisaton from its present state to a disirable but uncertain
future position. Because the organisation has never been to this future place, the pathway to it consists
of a series of linked hypothesis. The strategy map specifies these cause and effect relationships, making
them explicit and testable- Kaplan and Norton
The BICA Strategy has 4 Key Focus Areas
1. Positioning the BICA Qualification and Brand
2. Increasing the number of BICA members and professional accountants in the Country
3. Ensuring that BICA attains sustainability
4. Improving the Services that BICA offers

8. BICA STRATEGY RISK ANALYSIS
Risk management is a continuous process as part of good project governance practice. It
involves identifying, ranking and coming up with risk response strategies to maximise the
probability of success of the strategy project. The risks are classified into three categories
being: High, Medium and Low. Mitigation actions are identified for the High and Medium
Risks.
The initial identified risks are captured in the tables below:
High Risks:
1 The possible loss of key staff members critical to the strategy implementation
Mitigation:

9. Implementation Roadmap - Way Forward
In line with the strategy development process and good practice, the next steps in
maintaining the momentum of this project and implementing this strategy are as follows;
9.1 Approval of the Strategy
The BICA Council is responsible for approving this strategy for implementation.
9.2 Communication of the Strategy
It is essential that the BICA communicates the strategy extensively to its employees to ensure
awareness, build understanding and gain buy-in and commitment (employees cannot be
expected to help implement a strategy that they are not aware of or do not understand).
You can never over communicate a vision. When you think you have communicated enough
you are probably wrong by a factor of 10, maybe a 100 or even a 1000!-John Kotter- Leading
Change
22
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
9.3 Cascading the Strategy Scorecards
To realise maximum benefit the BICA executive will need to link the corporate strategy to the
functional and support unit strategies. This is achieved through the cascading and translation
of the corporate strategy to develop next level scorecards that will describe how the units will
contribute to the overall strategy as well as how their performance will be measured. The
objective is to achieve alignment both vertically and horizontally throughout the organisation.
This will ensure that all BICA employees understand the strategy and are motivated to
contribute to its delivery.
Figure 4: Strategy BSC cascading process
9.4 Alignment of Resources and the Budget
To ensure that there are adequate resources to implement the strategy, BICA will need to
ensure that strategy is linked to the annual budgets and develop aligned operational plans.
9.5 Strategy Management
The Strategy Management Team consisting of the CEO and Directors is responsible for
ensuring that strategic planning is linked with operational planning, implementation, feedback
and learning throughout BICA.
23
Strategic Plan Document-2013-2016 BICA
Figure 5: The Office of Strategy Management (OSM)
9.6 Monitoring the Strategy Implementation
To monitor the implementation of the strategy BICA will need to put the following processes in
place:
Operational Review Meetings – Monthly meetings are held to examine the
performance of the different units and address problems that arise or persist.
Strategy Review Meetings – Bi Monthly meetings are held to review performance in
line with the Strategy Scorecards and feed into the reports to Council.
9.7 Annual Reviewing of the Strategy
In addition to the above meetings the strategy Management Team conducts separate annual
meetings to test whether the fundamental strategic assumptions remain valid and address
whether the strategy is working.
