Infrastructure Reporting Model (IRM)

The National Treasury’s Infrastructure Reporting Model (IRM) is a reporting system for infrastructure projects implemented across government. The design objectives of the system link each project to an approved/allocated budget and measures performance (financial and non-financial) until the project is complete. The distinct feature between the IRM and a project management system is that the IRM is linked to the RSA budget cycle in terms of allocation of funds to projects, project selection as well as reporting and advocates for spending within allocated or approved budgets to avoid over-commitments when funds are not available.

Project Readiness Matrix Automation

The Department of Infrastructure Development (DID) implemented a Project Readiness Matrix (PRM) to enhance project governance and execution. The PRM is a structured evaluation technic used to gauge project readiness across gates, stages and milestones before moving to the next phase. It lowers the possibility of delays and cost overruns by ensuring that resources, documentation, and compliance requirements are taken care of up front. The PRM improves accountability, efficiency, and transparency in the province's infrastructure portfolio management by providing a standardised framework.
