    The BEE Scorecard

    The main principles of the Scorecard are: BEE ownership targets... 25% by 2006 / 30% by 2009 / 45% by 2014; BEE management targets... 25% by 2006 / 30% by 2009 / 50% by 2014; Employment Equity... 25% by 2006 / 30% by 2009 / 60% by 2014.

    Because the development of small business is a Government priority, and the fact that this industry consists of many one or two-person consultancies, the definition of an SMME and the targets have being redefined. SMMEs should be given opportunity for going for a 35% BEE target, instead of 50%. DTI have challenged the industry to define what this industry considers SMME. These are issues that need further clarity on from joint sectors.

    Either way, various levels have been added under Procurement/indirect empowerment: levels 1 - 8 to try meet the needs of SMMEs and consultants.

    The Charter Council

    To monitor and audit the transformation process to 2008 and 2014, a Charter Council will be established as an independent body with a mandate to oversee the implementation of the charter. The Charter Council will address the issues of principles and, in particular conduct the reviews and monitor:
    1. If there is a material change in circumstances or the environment in which the charter has to be implemented, it will consider whether the targets and implementation strategies are still appropriate, and if not how they should be varied.
    2. There will be equality between sector association representatives and all others on the Charter Council. The Charter Council must fairly reflect the interests of all marketing and communication sub-sectors.
    3. Decisions of the Charter Council will be taken on a consensual basis. If, on any issue, the Charter Council is unable to achieve consensus, there will be a dispute-breaking mechanism in the Charter Council either by some agreed mechanism with the Charter Council, or by reference to arbitration or mediation.
    4. The Charter Council will establish an executive to attend to its routine work and specifically to:

  • receive, consider and approve annual audits from each of the marketing and communication sub-sectors;
  • issue guidance notes on the interpretation and application of the charter;
  • prepare an annual review which outlines progress and evaluates new areas of intervention;
  • submit annual review to the BEE advisory Council for publication;
  • prepare interim reports at appropriate intervals;
  • undertake the reviews identified in terms of the charter;
  • engage with government, marketing and communication sub-sectors, the BEE Advisory Council and other regulatory bodies to promote the implementation of the charter.
