7 CIDB CONSTRUCTION MONITOR SUPPLY AND DEMAND; APRIL Introduction The cidb Construction Monitor; Supply and Demand is part of a suite of four quarterly cidb Construction Monitor publications: Quarter 1: Supply & Demand; Quarter 2: Contractor Development; Quarter 3: Employment; and Quarter 4: Empowerment. The cidb Construction Monitor; Supply and Demand provides an overview of the structure of the construction industry, public sector infrastructure spend and business conditions in South Africa, and covers the Quarter 2 of 217 to Quarter 1 of 218. The Construction Monitor focuses on public sector supply and demand at national and provincial levels, and deals primarily with the General Building () and Civil Engineering () cidb Classes of Works. The background and key assumptions used in developing and in interpreting the cidb Construction Monitor are highlighted below: i) Contracts Awarded: Details of contracts awarded is obtained from the cidb itender Register of Projects supported by the Industry Insight Project Database. (The support of Industry Insight in providing this information is gratefully acknowledged.) However, it should be noted that the Industry Insight information for contracts awarded lags the Construction Monitor by one quarter. ii) iii) Expenditure Against Budget: Details of infrastructure expenditure against budget is obtained from National Treasury. At present, details presented here are only for municipalities and provinces, while national expenditure against budget will be included when available. Note that the fiscal year for municipal expenditure begins on 1 July, which corresponds to Quarter 3 of the calendar year. Similarly, the fiscal year for provinces expenditure begins on 1 April, which corresponds to Quarter 2 of the calendar year. Contractor Registrations: Contractor information is obtained from the cidb Register of Contractors, and considers: contractors registered in Grades 2 to 9; and General Building () and Civil Engineering () Class of Works. The data is then aggregated into the following categories: Grade 9 contractors; typically contractors that operate at a national and international level; Grades 7 and 8; typically contractors that operate at a regional / provincial level; Grades 5 and 6; typically contractors in transition from operating at a local to a regional / provincial level; and Grade 9 7 & 8 5 & 6 2 to 4 Characteristics national / international provincial / regional local / regional local Grades 2 to 4; typically established and developing contractors that operate at a local level. It should be noted that Grade 9 contractors in particular work across provinces, and do not therefore reflect the contracting capacity within a particular province. 1

8 iv) Business Conditions: The cidb Construction Monitor includes perceptions of the confidence in business conditions, insufficient demand for work, tendering competition and access to credit obtained from the cidb BER SME Business Confidence Survey 1, which measures business conditions at a national and at provincial level and in various contractor grades. 1 cidb (218). cidb SME Business Conditions Survey.

9 2. Gross Fixed Capital Formation 2.1 Overview The construction sector plays a significant role in terms of its contribution to capital formation, from 25 to 217, the construction sector s average contribution to gross fixed capital formation was 43%, this is in line with a number of studies which have confirmed that approximately half of the investment in gross fixed capital formation in developing countries is done by the construction sector. An analysis of Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF) in current prices (i.e. not adjusted for inflation) for the year 217 is shown below, which includes investment by General Government, Public Corporations and the Private Sector on the following 2 : civil construction; non-residential buildings and residential buildings. The total GFCF spend in 217 amounted to around R436 billion, as follows: Rand (Million) Gross Fixed Capital Formation in Construction; 217 Rand (Million) A more detailed breakdown is given below: General Government Public Corporations Private Sector General Government Public Corporations Private Sector Total Construction Non-Residential Residential Total SARB (218). Quarterly Bulletin March

10 Year-on-year decrease in GFCF from 216 to 217 amounted to -2,1% real (down from,5% real growth in 216), and this is due to persistently weak business and investor confidence, policy uncertainty, fiscal constraints faced by government and challenges currently faced by SOE s (see Section 8). A breakdown of the decrease in GFCF is as follows: General Government: -5,5% real decrease from 216 to 217, declining further from -1,8% real decline from 215 to 216, which is a clear indication of government s current constrained resources. Public Corporations: -1,3% real decrease from 216 to 217; and Private sector: -,4% real decrease or contraction from 216 to 217. The decrease in investment by both the public and private sectors is clearly evident from the above. In real terms, the year-on-year decline in investment in total construction works of -2,1% comprised of civil construction and non-residential buildings which declined by -1,9% and -6.4% respectively, residential buildings increased by a marginal 1,5%. Currently, the percentage share of investment in total construction by Government (which includes general government and public corporations) is 56% and the percentage share of the private sector is 44%. Civil construction contributes the biggest share of the total construction investment (GFCF), amounting to 63% of total GFCF. Civil construction has shown phenomenal growth, with an average growth of around 11% from 25 to 217. The construction boom experienced in civil construction between the years 25 to 29 was largely attributable to the construction of the stadia for 21, Gauteng Freeway Improvement Programme (GFIP), Gautrain, ACSA infrastructure programme and the ESKOM build programme. During the year 211 and 213, the private sector experienced further peaks in investment in construction and this was due to the high cost of the capital equipment on the solar and wind projects (renewables energy projects). The public sector is the largest client of civil construction works, with a share of 76% of total investment in construction. At the end of 217, public sector contribution to construction works was as follows; 3% by general government and 46% by public corporations. Since 212, the contribution by public corporations to construction works has been weakening, it has declined from a share of 53% in 21 to 46% in 217. General Government which includes National, Provincial and Local Government mainly invests in social infrastructure, while Public Corporations invest in economic infrastructure. The figure below shows the yearon-year growth of civil construction. It also reflects the challenges and fiscal constraints experienced by general government and public corporations (State Owned Entities). 8% General Government Public Corporations Private Total Year-on-year percentage change (21) 6% 4% 2% % -2% -4% Investment in Construction Works: Year-on-year percentage change 217 The private sector is the largest client of building investment, both residential and non-residential buildings, with a share of 98% and 55% respectively. Between the year 29 and 217, a contraction or a decrease in investment by the private sector has been observed in both residential and non-residential buildings. This has 4

11 negatively impacted on the total buildings investment. In 28, the share of private sector investment for nonresidential buildings was 7%, by the end of 217 the share of investment had decreased substantially to 55%. The public sector had to counteract this decline in investment by the private sector. In the public sector, the main contributor to non-residential buildings is general government, with a share of 41%, public corporations have a marginal share of 4%. The private sector has also had marginal declines on its share of investment in residential buildings, in 21 the private sector s share of investment was 99.7%, by the end of 21 it was 98%. This is due to the policy uncertainty which has a negative impact on investor confidence. At the end of 217, residential buildings experienced a year-on-year growth of 1,5% while non-residential buildings experienced year-on-year contraction of -2%. The figures below shows that year-on-year percentage changes of residential and non-residential buildings focusing on the private sector s investment. 6% Private Total Year-on-year percentage change (21) 4% 2% % -2% -4% Investment in Residential Buildings 6% General Government Private Total 4% 2% % -2% -4% Year-on-year percentage change (21) Investment in Non-Residential Buildings The following figure illustrates that civil construction works investment is at its highest value, but the rate of growth is lower than the preceding years, which reflects the constraints for both Government and the Private Sector. 5

12 25 Residential Non-Residential Construction / Civil Rand (Million) Gross Fixed Capital Formation in Construction; 21 Rand (Million) The construction sector accounts for around 4% of gross domestic product, its contribution is relatively small compared to other sectors of the economy such as Finance, Government, Trade and Manufacturing. In 217, the value added by the construction industry in South Africa s gross domestic product amounted to around R19 billion (real prices), with a year-on-year decrease of -,3% or declining by R339 million 3. Construction output/value added is a function of the level of investment in the sector. It fluctuates with the construction investment, construction output has been falling in line with residential, non-residential buildings and construction works investment. This can also be seen from the analysis below; according to the analysis the highest growth in construction output was around 16% in 27 and the highest decline was -.3% in 217. The construction industry has been on a downturn since StatsSA (218). Gross Domestic Product: Fourth Quarter

13 6% GFCF CVA Year-on-year percentage change (21) 4% 2% % -2% -4% A provincial overview of the construction industry shows that construction output/value added is driven by the following provinces; Eastern Cape, Gauteng, KwaZulu Natal and Western Cape. Construction activity is concentrated in the urban provinces. In 216 these four provinces collectively accounted for around 79% of construction output. Their share of construction value added is shown below. Mpumalanga 6% Limpopo 6% Western Cape 19% Eastern Cape 8% Gauteng 35% Northern Cape 2% Free State 3% North West 4% KwaZulu-Natal 17% The dominance of Gauteng, KwaZulu Natal, Western Cape and Eastern Cape in construction spend by province is shown below. 7

Civil projects accounted for 66% whilst building projects accounted for 33% of total public sector spend. The high investment by government in construction or civil projects can be clearly seen from the table and investment map below which reflects that in all provinces there were more projects awarded in civil than in building works in the year 217.

15 Acknowledgements Estimated value of public sector construction projects awarded; 217 (Building versus Civil split) According to the Industry Insight investment map 4 (which represents a large sample of projects) year-on-year nominal decline in total construction awards from 216 to 217 amounted to -17%, nominal decline in building awards was -16% while nominal decline in civil awards was -18%. The following provinces experienced increases, Free State (22%) and Limpopo (7%), while the following provinces experienced substantial decreases; Western Cape (-32%), North West (-26%), Gauteng (-19%) and KwaZulu Natal (-17%). It should be noted that three of the provinces that experienced major declines in awards are the provinces that account for a major share in construction activity, hence the decline in construction output. The table below shows the year-on-year breakdown in awards for provinces.

16 The forecast investment in GFCF in 21 Rands by Industry Insight 5 is shown in the following table. The forecast by Industry Insight takes into account the following key considerations, negative and positive: Positive: expected global economic recovery and commodity pick up which will stimulate key industries; more optimism about current political situation; a moderate uptick in private investment expected in 218; rand strength and expected moderate pressure on inflation. Negative: rising interest rates in advanced economies; fiscal constraints in government which will lead to a falloff or budget cuts in infrastructure spending; challenges experienced by SOE s; ratings agencies. The resulting forecast suggests a contraction in total construction works in 218 as a result of a forecasted contraction of -3% in construction works which is due to a fall in public infrastructure spending as well as SOE s inability to effectively spend their budget allocations.

17 3. Expenditure against Budget; Municipal and Provincial Government 3.1 Municipal Expenditure An analysis of municipal capital expenditure for South Africa is shown below and given in in Appendix 1 for selected provinces 6 : the phased linear budget, actual expenditure and variance (in Rm) for all municipalities; and variance against budget for the most recent four quarters, for metro, local and district municipalities. Municipal; Expenditure; 2161 to 2174 Budget, Actual & Variance (Rm) Variance Budget Actual Variance against Budget (Rm) yyyyqq Metro -11,148-5,854-6,335-9,862 District Municipality -2,144-2,89-1,31-1,79 Local Municipality -6,653-6,294-2,88-4,322 Total -19,945-14,957-1,246-15,893 From an analysis of the municipal expenditure for the whole of South Africa: as at Quarter 2 of the 217/18 municipal financial year (217Q4 of the calendar year), the total municipal capital expenditure amounted to around R2,5 billion or 56% of the phased budget representing an underspend against linear phased budget of around R16 billion; at a more detailed level, as at Quarter 2 of the 217/18 municipal financial year (217Q4 of the calendar year), 5% of the capital phased budget had been spent by Metros, while District and Local Municipalities spent 64% of the phased budget; and the underspending for Metros amounted to around R1 billion. Note that at the end of the 216/17 municipal financial year, the total underspending of Municipalities increased from around R13 billion (215/16) to around R16 billion, this reflects the capacity constraints in the infrastructure delivery process that are experienced in Local Municipalities. Furthermore, from Appendix 1, for the provinces shown, as at Quarter 2 of the 217/18 municipal financial year (217Q4 of the calendar year), overall municipal capital expenditure for Eastern Cape and KwaZulu Natal was above 6% of the phased budget (65% and 61% respectively), while for Western Cape and Gauteng spending was below 6% of the phased budget (51% and 46% respectively). 6 National Treasury (218).

Furthermore, from Appendix 2, for the provinces shown, as at Quarter 3 of the 217/18 provincial financial year (217Q4 of the calendar year), overall provincial capital expenditure for Eastern Cape and KwaZulu Natal was above 1% of the phased budget (16% and 11% respectively), Gauteng and Western Cape spent below 95% of the phased budget (83% and 92% respectively). (Data for other provinces can be provided on request]. Note that at the end of the 216/17 provincial financial year, the total underspending of provincial departments was R1.4billion. 7 National Treasury (218).

It should be noted however that the largest proportion of the contracts awarded in Grades 7 to 9 are subcontracted down to sub-contractors typically in Grades 2 to 6. Similar trends are also obtained for the distribution of public sector contract awards for the selected provinces shown in Appendix 3. (Data for other provinces can be provided on request.)

20 5. Maintenance Contracts Awarded; Public Sector (Note that the information provided by Industry Insight for contracts awarded is lagged by one quarter.) Estimates of the distribution of public sector maintenance contracts awarded by value (including refurbishment, renovations, etc.) in South Africa as a percentage of the total contracts awarded in the Grades 2 to 9 is shown in the figure below. Maintenance; Public Sector Awards (% of Value per Grade); 2171 to 2174 Grade % Distribution % 2% 4% 6% 8% 1% 9 7% 7 & 8 15% 9 5 & 6 36% 2 to 4 36% Total 15% 7 & % 5 & 6 7 & 8 28% 5 & 6 16% 2 to 4 15% 2 to 4 Total 11% maintenance contracts in Grades 7 to 9 in General Building () amount to an average of 7% and Civil Engineering () in Grades 7 to 9 amount to an average of 18% of the total expenditure for 217Q1 to 217Q4; and the percentage of maintenance contracts in Grades 2 to 6 the average is around 18% in General Building (), but only around 8% in Civil Engineering () for 217Q1 to 217Q4. Estimates of the distribution of public sector maintenance contract awards for selected provinces are shown in Appendix 4. (Data for other provinces can be provided on request.) Acknowledgements: 14

21 6. Supply: Registrations; Grades 2 to 9 Details of the distribution of the total number of registrations in Grades 2 to 9 in General Building () and Civil Engineering () for South Africa are shown in the following figure.

The growth in registrations over the past three years is shown in the following figure. Details of registrations for selected provinces is given in Appendix 5, while details for other provinces can be provided on request. 15

22 7. Business Conditions; Public and Private Sectors (Note that the information provided here is a summary of the cidb / BER SME Business Confidence Survey, available on the cidb web.) Business Confidence All 3 & 4 5 & 6 7 & 8 7 All 3 & 4 5 & 6 7 & General Building: During the first quarter of 218, business confidence for general builders was unchanged at 36 index points. However, business conditions were more favourable, in line with better activity and profitability. Constraints to business operations were largely unchanged. Nevertheless, the indicator rating insufficient demand for new building work as a constraint to business operations remained elevated, which bodes ill for building activity in the near term. Results across the three grades showed a fall in confidence among the Grades 3 & 4 (supported by weakness in underlying indicators). For Grades 5 & 6 and Grades 7 & 8, improved sentiment came mostly on the back of better activity growth. It should be noted that, irrespective of the movements in sentiment for all three grades, confidence levels remained below their long-term averages. Amongst the big four provinces, confidence for Western Cape building contractors remained above 5 index points, while the opposite was true for the others. In sum, an improvement in underlying indicators was seen for all four provinces, except in KwaZulu-Natal. Discouragingly, building confidence in the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng is oscillating around the poor level of 3 index points. Civil Contractors: Civil contractor confidence was barely changed in 218Q1. The cidb index edged up by 1 index point to 36. Some positive movements in construction activity helped alleviate some pressure off profitability. Both activity and profitability were lifted from exceptionally low levels seen in the previous quarter. Grades 5 & 6 civil contractor confidence was mostly stable at 41 index points. This was reflective of persistent pressure on profitability in spite of some improvement in activity. For Grades 3 & 4 the slight pick-up in sentiment was barely supported by underlying indicators. On the other hand, higher confidence for Grades 7 & 8 came on the back of improved activity and profitability. The overall provincial picture for civil contractors was rather morose, especially in light of the reversed gain in confidence in the Western Cape. While there were some slight improvements in sentiment for the other three provinces during 218Q1, Western Cape confidence plunged to its worst level since 213Q2. In all, confidence levels for all four provinces rested below 4-index points during the survey quarter. This should not be surprising, however, given that key underlying indicators are well below their long-term averages. Confidence for both the building and civil engineering sectors was largely unchanged at the depressed level of 36 index points each during 218Q1. From a grades perspective, confidence levels are oscillating around 4 index points in both sectors, reflecting broad-based strain. The picture is hardly more encouraging at the provincial level. General builders in the Western Cape seem to be the only ones who remain upbeat, with 16

23 confidence above 5 points. For the rest of the provinces in both building and civil, confidence levels are mostly in the 3 s. Business Confidence for selected provinces is shown in Appendix 6. (Data for other provinces can be provided on request.) 17

24 8. Constraints to Business Growth (Note that the information provided here is a summary of the cidb / BER SME Business Confidence Survey, available on the cidb web.) Constraints to business growth (net balance) are given below for General Building () and Civil Engineering () for contractor Grades 3 & 4, 5 & 6 and 7 & 8. i) Lack of access to work is the highest constraint to business growth across all grades, at a net balance of around 7%. It has increased to around 85% for Grades 7 & 8 contractors. This is not positive for activity in the near term. ii) Shortage of skilled labour is the second highest constraint, but less of a constraint for Grades 7 & 8 contractors. iii) Inadequate access to credit is the lowest of the three constraints to business growth, but for contractor Grades 3 & 4 are at a similar level to shortages of skilled labour. Of significance is that inadequate access to credit is increasing as a constraint to business growth in Grades 3 & 4. For Grades 7 & 8, inadequate access to credit does not appear to be a significant constraint.
