Private – Public Partnership

Advantages

  • PPP Advantages
      1. Proven to be a highly effective public procurement model for capital intensive infrastructure building, operating, and enhancing capacity
      2. PPPs allow the infusion of significant private capital with immediate results for the public sector and long-term ROI for the private sectors.
      3. With current PPP structuring the private sector assumes life-cycle cost risk
      4. PPPs allocate risks to the part most able to manage/ absorb particular risks
      5. PPPs can deliver budgetary certainty –funding and timeline committed by parties with no cost + options
      6. Contractually obligated to maintain the quality of service for the duration of the PPP
      7. Both private and public sectors and required to carry out life-cycle costing and long-term fiscal planning
      8. As the public sector pays only when the services are delivered, the transaction can be off the balance sheet.
