Definition of PPPs
PPP's in developing countries; IOB study
‘Form of cooperation between government and business agents – sometimes also involving voluntary organizations (NGOs, trade unions) or knowledge institutes – that agree to work together to reach a common goal or carry out a specific task, while jointly assuming the risks and responsibilities and sharing resources and competences’
Wide variety in contractual terms: ● service contracts, management contracts
● lease arrangement● build–transfer–operate (BTO) and similar
arrangements (BOO, DBO, DBGO, DBFMO, etc). ● joint ventures

Key criteria of PPPs
1. Cooperation between public and private party
2. Clear agreement on goals
3. Combination of private and public funding
4. Agreement on sharing resources and tasks
5. Distribution of risk between partners
Rationale for PPPs
Alternative framwork for dealing with coordination problems, input constraints and output risks
Motives:Most important: financial resource mobilization
Least important: effectiveness of the partnership (scarce results orientation)

Critical success factors (1)
1. Permanent government involvement- Set standards and monitor product safety,
efficacy and quality- Assure citizens access to products and services
2. Sound regulatory framework- Private partner protected from expropriation,
arbitration of disputes- Respect for contract agreements and legitimate
recovery of costs and profits
Based on: Jamili (2004)

3. Formation requirements- From the very start create clarity about:
inputs, committment symetry - Common goals, intensive communication,
working cultures
4. Partner selection (4 C’s)- Compatibilty: complementary strengths - Capabilty- Commitment- Control
Critical success factors (2)

Critical success factors (3)
5. Common vision and trustfull relationship- Hold-up problem caused by change in the
position of partners- Cultural differences between partners
6. Interest of key participants negotiated and packaged
- Traditional ways of working independently have limited impact
- Long-term interests of partners are balanced
Outlook
PPP's in developing countries; IOB study
Are PPP’s a good proposition ?
- Yes, can be- But: many ‘incomplete contracts’- Only for specific purposes- Be aware of critical succes factors – success
is not always assured!- Evidence on effectiveness & efficiency so far
is quite weak
