- Even though concession deeds will contain clauses relating to hand-over requirements at the end of the concession period, prior transition arrangements should be effectively managed by the public partner. This is essential even if it is highly likely that an existing facility manager, for instance, will be retained. The public partner is obligated to demonstrate that whatever decision is taken represents the best VfM option for the public. Re-tendering a concession, under such circumstances, may increase the prospect that the incumbent concessionaire will offer a more competitive price for delivering the services, therefore increasing the public partner's level of bargaining power.
