Public-Private Partnership (PPP) can be broadly defined as a
contractual agreement between the Government and a
private firm targeted towards financing, designing,
implementing and operating infrastructure facilities and
services that were traditionally provided by the public sector.
It embodies optimal risk allocation between the parties –
minimizing cost while realizing project developmental
objectives. Thus, the project is to be structured in such a way
that the private sector gets a reasonable rate of return on its
investment.
PPP offers monetary and non-monetary advantages for the
public sector. It addresses the limited funding resources for
local infrastructure or development projects of the public
sector thereby allowing the allocation of public funds for
other local priorities. It is a mechanism to distribute project
risks to both public and private sector. PPP is geared for both
sectors to gain improved efficiency and project
implementation processes in delivering services to the public.
Most importantly, PPP emphasizes Value for Money (VfM) –
focusing on reduced costs, better risk allocation, faster
implementation, improved services and possible generation
of additional revenue.
