Gautrain Management Agency Maintains Unbroken Clean Audit Record For 13th Year Running

The Gautrain Management Agency (GMA) has once again demonstrated its steadfast commitment to clean governance and sound financial stewardship, achieving its 13th consecutive clean audit for the 2024/2025 financial year.

This significant milestone reinforces the GMA’s standing as a leading example of excellence in public sector governance, financial accountability, and ethical administration.

Speaking on behalf of the Board, GMA Board Chairperson, Professor Mfanelo Ntsobi, commended the Agency’s leadership and staff. “This achievement reflects the Gautrain Management Agency’s consistent and disciplined approach to financial management, and its unwavering commitment to clean administration. As the Board, we are proud of the Agency’s transparency, accountability, and responsible management of public resources, values that continue to underpin every aspect of its operations.”

Mandated to manage the Gautrain Project on behalf of the Gauteng Provincial Government, the GMA continues to deliver strong operational performance. In the 2024/2025 reporting period, train service availability averaged 99.51%, while punctuality reached 97.57%, underscoring the Agency’s dedication to efficiency and reliability.

In a further demonstration of its pursuit of organisational excellence, the GMA secured ISO certification for its Integrated Management System (IMS). The Agency is now fully certified in Quality Management (ISO 9001), Environmental Management (ISO 14001) and Occupational Health and Safety (ISO 45001). The certifications, awarded by DQS in South Africa, reflect the Agency’s dedication to continuous improvement, risk mitigation, and world-class operational performance.

“The GMA remains committed to upholding the highest standards of governance and service delivery, while fostering public confidence in the management of the Gautrain as a strategic asset,” Professor Ntsobi concluded.
