The establishment of a new construction sector umbrella body, the Construction Alliance South Africa (Casa), has been labelled an âact of opportunism and tenderpreneurshipâ.
Casa, an umbrella body of 29 South African construction sector associations, was officially launched last week.
The National African Federation for the Building Industry (Nafbi) and Black Business Federation (BBF) have added their voices to criticism by the SA Forum of Civil Engineering Contractors (Safcec) about Casaâs establishment.
