Figure 3.1 Business architecture of SANParks
Under the Commercialization Strategy, PPPs allow state institutions to lease
assets to the private sector for a period of time, after which the assets revert back
to the state. This is different to the privatization of state property where the assets
are transferred to the private sector (the state does not have the assets any longer).
PPPs are thus a good vehicle for state institutions to utilize to increase a country's
global positioning. In SANParks' case, they allow South Africa to increase the
tourism infrastructure to allow it to compete with countries like Brazil, India and
Thailand in the global market. In addition to attracting capital, PPPs allow state
institutions to leverage private sector business skills, transfer business risks to the
private sector, create employment and also enhance the state institution's image
by putting its resources to good use.
SANParks is required to build constituencies at international, national and
local levels, in support of the conservation of the natural and cultural heritage of
South Africa. It has to ensure that a broad base of South Africans participate in
biodiversity initiatives, and, further, that all its operations have a synergistic
existence with neighbouring or surrounding communities for their socioeconomic
benefit. Figure 3.1 depicts the organization's business architecture.
