In November 1999, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (hereinafter referred to as "JICA"), the official agency responsible for the implementation of technical cooperation programs, sent a Preparatory Study Team to hold discussions with the Department of Environmental Affairs & Tourism (hereinafter referred to as "DEAT") and South African Tourism (hereinafter referred to as "SA Tourism"). On February 7 2001, DEAT and JICA agreed upon the Scope of Work for the Study. In February 2001, JICA called for technical offers for the selection of a consultant to implement the Study. A team of experts organized by PADECO Co., Ltd. and Pacific Consultants International Co., Ltd. was selected and contracted as the JICA Study Team (hereinafter referred to as "the Study Team") in March 2001. The Study Team commenced work in South Africa in early May 2001. At the same time, JICA organized an advisory committee comprising tourism experts within the Government of Japan in order to advise JICA on technical as well as policy issues of the Study at critical junctures of the Study progress.
