The public private partnership project is the agency's estimate of the most efficient private sector solution to satisfy the output specification. The public private partnership project will be similar in form to the reference project and will form the basis upon which the Partnership model will be constructed.
The spectrum of possible project delivery options encompasses combinations of public and private sector service delivery, ranging from wholly public to wholly private. The spectrum also includes project delivery options financed by the public and private sectors.
The framework for ascertaining the scope of private sector participation in service delivery and comparative analysis of project delivery options comprises the assessment of:
(i) The services comprising the infrastructure asset
(ii) Related non-core services
(iii) Application of public private partnership models which have been implemented elsewhere for private sector participation in the delivery of similar services
(iv) Risks allocation and commercial structure associated with the delivery of the services
(v) Specific constraints that impede service delivery by the private sector.
