There are three primary (and overlapping) contingency processes relevant to Partnerships Victoria projects:
• service interruption response planning - to prepare for any interruption to service delivery during the service delivery phase;
• step-in planning - to prepare for the exercise of any step-in rights in the Partnerships Victoria contract, whether as a result of an interruption to service delivery, a default by the private party, or another event negotiated as a step-in trigger; and
• default planning - to prepare for any default by the private party in either the construction phase or the service delivery phase.
