To successfully develop and implement public-private partnership projects requires a supportive and capable institutional environment within the sponsoring agency. An effective PPP program provides an underlying framework for how the agency will administer PPP projects and should be in place before launching into procurement of PPP projects. A PPP program involves the development of policies, procedures, documentation, and resources to guide development and management of PPP projects. These program pre-requisites will enable the sponsoring agency to carry out the necessary contract procurement and administration of PPP projects to ensure their successful implementation. These requirements are discussed in this section.
