risk assessment in public Private Partnership infrastructure projects
Construction Innovation: Information Process Management, 2017Co-Authors: Robert Oseikyei, Albert P.c. ChanAbstract:The purpose of this paper is to empirically compare the risk factors in public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects in developing and developed countries, represented by Ghana and Hong Kong, respectively.,A structured questionnaire survey was conducted with PPP practitioners in Ghana and Hong Kong. In total, 103 valid responses were received for analysis. Kendall’s coefficient of concordance and mean ranking were used for data analysis.,The results show that respondents from Ghana ranked country risk factors higher, whereas their Hong Kong counterparts ranked project-specific risks higher. The top five significant risks in Ghana are corruption, inflation rate fluctuation, exchange rate fluctuation, delay in project completion and interest rate fluctuation. In Hong Kong, the top five significant risk factors are delay in land acquisition, operational cost overruns, construction cost overruns, delay in project completion and political interference.,The results of the study inform international investors of the appropriate risk mitigation measures and preventive actions to use when engaging in PPP arrangements in any part of the world. Further, governments who are yet to use the PPP concept would be informed of the prevailing risk factors in other neighbouring countries (i.e. developing or developed countries).

critical success criteria for public Private Partnership projects international experts opinion
International Journal of Strategic Property Management, 2017Co-Authors: Robert Oseikyei, Albert P.c. Chan, Arshad Ali Javed, Ernest Effah AmeyawAbstract:ABSTRACTPublic-Private Partnership (PPP) projects success is the ultimate goal of practitioners and government organizations. In this regard, the last decade has seen considerable research into the critical success factors (CSFs) for PPP projects. However, a very important subject which has received very little attention in the normative literature is the success criteria for PPP projects. This paper examines the general perception of purposively sampled international PPP experts on a set of 15 PPP projects success criteria derived from literature. The survey results show that all the success criteria are critical; however seven are very critical. These include: effective risk management; meeting output specifications; reliable and quality service operations; adherence to time; satisfying the need for public facility/service; long-term relationship and Partnership; and profitability. The findings of this study are impactful because they inform practitioners on the key measures to consider when evaluating ...

risk allocation in public Private Partnership water supply projects in ghana
Construction Management and Economics, 2015Co-Authors: Ernest Effah Ameyaw, Albert P.c. ChanAbstract:Appropriate risk allocation (RA) between public and Private sectors according to their risk management (RM) capabilities is crucial for the success of public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects. The RA process in PPP water projects is examined, and a methodology based on fuzzy set theory is outlined with RA principles that can be used by public-Private participants to arrive at fair RA decisions. Empirical data based on an industry-wide three-round Delphi questionnaire survey is used in this study to outline the methodology. The fuzzy set theory is employed for the RA analysis because it deals well with the complex multi-criteria problem of, and precisely accounts for the fuzziness inherent in human cognitive process that characterize, RA decision-making. Five risk factors are evaluated on each RA principle, analysed and assigned between the public and Private sectors. The results show that it is appropriate to allocate risks according to both sectors’ RM capability to manage them, using established RA pri...

a comparison of two models for dealing with urban solid waste management by contract and management by public Private Partnership
Resources Conservation and Recycling, 2013Co-Authors: Adauto Fernandes Marconsin, Derval Dos Santos RosaAbstract:Abstract In work, we compared two models for dealing with urban solid waste in Brazil, namely, management by contract and management by public–Private Partnership. Management by contract, which is widely used by the public sector (municipalities) for urban solid waste collection and disposal and for acquiring goods and services for periods not greater than 60 months, is governed by Federal Law 8.666/93. Management by public–Private Partnership is governed by Federal Law 11.079/04 for contracts worth more than US$11,000,000 and involves costs for the Private partner and public partner. The financial return for the Private partner must be clearly delineated and the contract should last from 5 to 35 years. Management by public–Private Partnership that involves the management of municipal solid waste is very recent in Brazil. For this reason, the comparison between the two forms of management of municipal solid waste (management by contract and management by public–Private Partnership) described in this work is unprecedented in this country. Both of these models are used in the municipality of Sao Bernardo do Campo in the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil. For this study, information was gathered through semi-structured interviews with public works managers in Sao Bernardo do Campo, with members of an Association of Recyclable Material Collectors and with managers of a company contracted by the Sao Bernardo do Campo city hall, and also by researching public documents provided by the city hall. The interviews with the managers of the municipality of Sao Bernardo do Campo, the Association and the company were held in the headquarters of each institution. The documents analyzed, such as the plan for dealing with municipal solid waste, contracts and bids were made available electronically. Analysis of the results indicated that management by a public–Private Partnership was more advantageous for dealing with urban solid waste than management by contract since the former provided a strong selective collection program, reduced the amount of solid waste sent to sanitary embankments, led to the recovery an area of land previously degraded by the incorrect disposal of urban solid waste and stimulated the installation of an energy recovery unit.

efficiency assessment of public Private Partnership ppp projects the case of russia
Sustainability, 2018Co-Authors: Andrey Berezin, Bruno S Sergi, Natalia V GorodnovaAbstract:The most recent international experience shows that public-Private Partnership (PPP) is a public procurement that improves the management of public and municipal property in the construction sector. This article proposes a method for ranking countries by the probability of being successful in implementing a PPP. The new methodology is based on a system of indicators to assess the quality of the institutional environment, the experience of project implementation, the state readiness, Private organizations, and the society for the effective implementation of PPP projects. We develop a new method to gauge challenging Russia’s new legislation that, although having been introduced in 2015, has already boosted a tumultuous number of new PPP projects and it is expected to enhance PPP opportunities in the country further.

identifying public Private Partnership ppp risks in managing water supply projects in ghana
Journal of Facilities Management, 2013Co-Authors: Ernest Effah Ameyaw, Albert P.c. ChanAbstract:Purpose – The public‐Private Partnership (PPP) procurement approach enables the development and management of public infrastructure and services through leveraging Private capital, management expertise, and creative commercial skills. This approach, pursued by the Ghanaian Government in the development and management of water supply services, contains a plethora of risks resulting from the complexity and dynamic interactions between municipal and central governments (pursuing monetary and political goals), public movements, Private water operators, and international donors pursuing their own objectives. The paper seeks to increase awareness of the risks that can erode or reduce potential benefits of PPPs in the water supply sector.Design/methodology/approach – A research approach integrating a literature survey and case study is adopted. A rigorous literature review of PPP risks is first undertaken. Based on six case studies carried out in the Ghanaian water supply sector, this paper identifies and catego...
