<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Footlight MT Light","serif"'>The
cidb through its partnership programme, Infrastructure Delivery Improvement
Programme (IDIP) identified delayed payment to contractors as one of the main
blockages to infrastructure delivery in the construction industry. While the
PFMA stipulates payment within 30 days of submission of claim, most clients do
not comply with the legislation as well as the individual contracts signed
between themselves and the contractors. Failure by clients to pay contractors
within the stipulated period in their contracts results in slow service
delivery, poor quality of infrastructure, poor performance of contractors,
demise of contractors due to severe negative cash-flow, risk of unfinished
projects and interest charges being incurred. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Footlight MT Light","serif";

delayed payment with construction industry stakeholders to chart a way forward
in ensuring that clients comply with the PFMA as well as their payment
contractual obligations with the contractors.<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
