THE FUNCTIONS OF ARMSCOR

1. To acquire and to procure defence matériel for the Department of Defence;

2. To provide a quality assurance capability in support of the acquisition process;

3. To dispose of excess, redundant, forfeited or surplus matériel of the South African National Defence Force;

THE FUNCTIONS OF ARMCOR

4. To support and maintain strategic and essential defence industrial capabilities, resources and technologies as determined by the Department of Defence;

5. To render acquisition and procurement support to other organs of State or other sovereign states with the approval of the Minister.

WHY DOES ARMSCOR EXISTS

REASONS WHY WE NEED ARMSCOR:

Defence acquisition requires the application of engineering and science.

Public service remuneration system cannot support the technical skills required by Armscor

Public service management system will render Armscor ineffective (e.g. Dockyard).

Independent decision making body always produces best objective results (civilian oversight).

WHY DOES ARMSCOR EXISTS

ARMSCOR’S RELATION WITH DENEL Up to 1992 Denel was the

manufacturing capability of Armscor. Currently, Denel is one of the supplier to

Armscor and the DoD. Armscor treats Denel like any other

local supplier to the SANDF ( must be cost and product competitive)..

CHALLENGES FACING ARMSCOR

INADEQUATE FUNDING

Transfer payment only funds about 61% of the operational budget of Armscor and thus creates the budget problems;

Problems due to Inadequate funding; Employees salaries lag market Increased resignations Erosion of technical capabilities Inability to transform workforce Increased workload Inability to recapitalize organisation

Additional income R30 million added to transfer payment.

CHALLENGES FACING ARMSCOR

LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS Significantly increase the transfer

payment to cover entire Armscor budget Allow erosion of skills to the point where

organisation is unable to function. Supplement transfer payment with

additional income from commercial activities.

ADOPTED SOLUTION

Supplement transfer payment with additional income from commercial activities.
