Risk management in public-private partnership (PPP) projects from the project management perspective
Resumo:
The performance of public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects is largely contingent on whether the adopted risk allocation (RA) strategy is efficient. Theoretical frameworks drawing on the transaction cost economics and the resource-based view of organizational capability are able to explain the underlying mechanism but unable to accurately forecast efficient RA strategies. In this paper, a neurofuzzy decision support system (NFDSS) was developed to assist in the RA decision-making process in PPP projects. By combining fuzzy and neural network techniques, a synthesized fuzzy inference system was established and taken as the core component of the NFDSS. Evaluation results show that the NFDSS can forecast efficient RA strategies for PPP infrastructure projects at a highly accurate and effective level. A real PPP infrastructure project is used to demonstrate the NFDSS and its practical significance.

Both the increasing private participation in public projects and the critical importance of appropriate risk allocation to the success of public-private partnership (PPP) projects justify specific research on the risk allocation practice in PPP projects, particularly whether the practice is value-for-money driven. In this paper, the risk allocation in construction projects is examined firstly. The risks associated with PPP projects and the concept of optimal risk allocation are then reviewed. More importantly, the risk allocation practice in PPP projects is examined, particularly in the Australian context. Important issues, such as the current practice, the governments' accountability, and achieving efficient allocation, are discussed. The discussion presented in this paper is expected to justify and elicit further research on how to achieve efficient risk allocation in PPP projects

Public Private Partnerships (PPP) as a procurement mechanism for infrastructure projects is becoming increasingly common. This is principally due to the value for money opportunities it offers the public sector sponsors. This value for money is primarily achieved through the optimisation of the allocation of risk inherent in the project being transferred from the public sector sponsors onto private sector bidders. This paper analyses the influence that these factors have on successful risk allocation with the aim of providing clearer parameters for optimal risk allocation in PPP projects. Through an extensive review of existing literature, the critical success factors for optimal risk allocation in PPP projects are identified. It is found that the optimisation of risk allocation in PPP projects is critically influenced by the identified factors, which will undoubtedly aid in the successful outcome for future PPP projects.

Due to increasing demands for new infrastructure and an aim to reduce initial public investment, Australian government agencies are increasingly using public-private partnerships (PPPs) as a form of delivery for infrastructure projects. Environmentally, there is growing pressure for the building industry in general to become more sustainable. Moreover, as the built environment continues to grow each year, the performance of buildings as a whole will need to continually improve purely for national energy consumption to remain stable. Based on a systematic and extensive review on relevant literature, this paper has identified the key attributes that will influence the environmental sustainability of infrastructure completed through a PPP. The key attributes are grouped into five groups defined by whom or what has the majority of control over the attribute. Meanwhile, the key attributes are explored and their influence on environmental sustainability justified. This paper was able to not only identify significant factors involved in creating environmental sustainability in infrastructure PPPs, but also trends of the key attributes. It has been found that (1) the longevity of the contract in a PPP project allows greater innovation into environmental sustainability than traditional methods of procurement, (2) innovation is a requirement for the improving upon environmental performance in the built environment, (3) improvements to environmental sustainability relies upon a positive relationship between economic and environmental benefits, and (4) the key attributes for PPP projects are decided upon relatively early in the contract. Due to space limit, detailed discussion on each of the identified attributes is not provided in this paper. Nonetheless, further research direction is discussed.

The article focuses on the public–private divide in law and which organizes principles for and governance. It analyzes the governance model of public–private divide regarding for climate change adaptation in context to a case study of water governance and flood risk. It compares the relationship between state and individual laws which helps in policy setting.

This paper presents the result of a qualitative empirical research about the “Criatec Fund”, a venture capital fund, privately managed and directed to innovative firms, that was created in 2007 by the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES). The paper discusses the role of law in the implementation of the Criatec Fund in three different legal dimensions: structural, regulatory and contractual. Based on interviews, this paper tries to test some hypothesis previously formulated by some scholars that studied new financial policies created by the BNDES. This study explains the institutional arrangements of this seed capital policy and the role of flexible legal instruments in the execution of this peculiar type of publicprivate partnership. It also poses some questions to the “law and development agenda” based on some insights from the economic sociology of law.
