Thesis (MPA)--Stellenbosch University, 2001. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: There exists a concern about the low rate of providing low-cost houses in South
Africa. The premise of the research study is that in the presence of a growing
shortage of houses characterised by unplanned squatter settlements, activities for
identifying housing beneficiaries should be planned and executed in ways that do not
adversely influence the implementation schedules for housing projects. Project
management as a discipline provides skills and techniques that are utilised in housing
project management. The tendency for housing project implementers to view
efficiency in quantitative terms is challenged by pressures from the institutional
environment that demand attention to qualitative aspects of housing projects.
The research study addresses beneficiary listing as an influential process in the
implementation of housing projects. The study is presented in related topics. They
are, project management, the institutional environment of the beneficiary listing
process, a case study of the Snake Valley Housing Project near Stellenbosch,
measurement, observations, and findings. The study concludes with
recommendations for the adoption of structure related mechanisms that influence
planning, managing and control of housing project activities. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Kommer bestaan oor die vlakke van lae-koste behuisingslewering in Suid-Afrika. Die
premise van hierdie studie is dat in die groeiende tekort aan huise en ook
onbeplande informele nedersettings, aktiwiteite vir die identifisering van behuising
begunstigdes, beplan en uitgevoer behoort te word op so 'n wyse dat dit nie die
implementering skedules van behuisingsprojekte negatief beinvloed nie. 'n Tendens
by behuisingsprojek implementeerders om effektiwiteit in kwantitatiewe terme te
bejeën word hiermee uitgedaag vanuit die institusionele omgewing wat toenemend
vereis dat aandag ook gewy moet word aan die kwalitatiewe aspekte van
behuisingsprojekte.
Hierdie studie fokus op die proses van behuisingswaglysting en hoe dit die
implementering van behuisingsprojekte beinvloed. Die studie word aangebied deur
die volgende verbandhoudende aspekte naamlik projekbestuur, die institusionele
omgewing van die behuising waglystingsproses, 'n gevalstudie van die Snake Valley
Behuisingsprojek naby Stellenbosch, waarnemings en bevindinge. Die studie eindig
met aanbevelings vir die aanvaarding van bepaalde meganismes wat die beplanning,
bestuur en beheer van behuising projekaktiwiteite kan beinvloed.
