Public Private Partnerships Pros Full risk transfer for design, construction, building operations – guaranteed performance Best-in-class asset management – FM/life cycle Private finance provides discipline & capacity Faster delivery – inception to completion Cons Higher transaction costs Higher finance costs for the private finance portion Less flexibility to handle changes during operating period
Comments - P3/Concession procurement Output Specs typically exceed industry norms Transaction costs are relatively high Not all risk transfer is good value Expectations can be unrealistic – innovations, retail revenues etc. Projects are most successful when all parties focus on the “partnership” The condition of the asset during the operations phase is better than with non-P3 assets
