According to UN (2021), human development in recent decades has been accompanied by rapid changes in technology and an increasing proliferation of digitalized devises and services. The pace of change seems likely to accelerate because of frontier technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, biotechnology, and nanotechnology.

The greater sub-Saharan Africa region is expected to grow by 4.0 percent in 2021, the slowest recovery in the world compared to advanced markets and other emerging markets and developing economies. Despite possibly achieving growth of 4.6 percent in 2021, South Africa is unlikely to maintain this momentum into 2022 according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The upward revision to South Africa's 2021 growth outlook is largely linked to better than expected growth during the first half of the year before the massive social unrest in Kwazulu and Gauteng provinces, as well as the impact of the country’s improved national accounts position, which has been helped by a stronger trade account bolstered by the commodities boom.

Limpopo Province is fast growing and most people are relocating to major towns like Polokwane, Makhado and Thohoyandou hence there is a need by the Provincial Government to support the industry so that it can cope with the ever-increasing demand for housing. Small and newly, construction companies are not financially viable, they lack entrepreneurial skills, and as a result, they are not able to render services that are demanded in the local market. Newly established SMMEs in the construction industry in Limpopo Province are characterised by lack of technical skills in construction engineering, lack of basic entrepreneurial skills that are essentially for attracting clients. On the other hand, the prices of building materials are continuously increasing which also a contributor to crowding-out of small construction companies, as they need capital to do projects especially tender work.

One of the challenges has got to do with what they call a restrictive informal settlements intervention plan. Flowing straight from the plan is the problem of incorrect occupants. This is the problem that dogged the housing delivery program since 1994. Literature review in this study reveals that a sizable number of houses are occupied by people who are not the actual beneficiaries of the houses. It has been found out that post occupation monitoring to ensure that the right beneficiaries remain in the housing units for the required minimum period poses a challenge. There is serious lack of information on the part of beneficiaries which may lead to rightful occupants renting or selling their allocated units.The study seeks to investigate incidences of the illegal occupation of the RDP houses in the province.
