This study evaluates the incorporation of co-production into the integrated development planning (IDP) process within the City of Tshwane. IDP is a strategic five-year management framework that enables collaboration between municipal officials and residents for them to jointly determine the municipality’s developmental priorities for the subsequent administrative term. This research employed a qualitative methodology, with data collected from two distinct sample groups: Group 1 comprises residents from three key geographic areas, namely Mamelodi, Soshanguve, and Atteridgeville, whereas Group 2 consists of IDP officials from the City of Tshwane. Data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews, and thematic analysis was applied to identify recurring patterns and themes. The study’s findings indicate that co-production is only partially integrated into the IDP process in the City of Tshwane. Further findings include lower levels of knowledge of the concept of co-production in the IDP process, and lack of awareness of the approach of co-production in the IDP in the City of Tshwane, a lack of civic education, a lack of closer partnerships and suitable leadership, the issue of accountability and transparency, and the collapse of ward committees. These challenges undermine the potential for meaningful citizen engagement in the co-production process. To address these issues, the study recommends the implementation of regular civic education workshops, the development of streamlined record-keeping and documentation practices, and the enhancement of communication channels using diverse methods. Further recommendations are outlined in the study.
