A termination should be properly planned before the termination notice is delivered. Once the Procuring Authority has followed the required processes and obtained appropriate legal advice, the Procuring Authority needs to ensure that the implications of issuing the termination notice are clearly understood and the continuity of service for the users will be ensured, including engaging appropriate support to manage the process. Terminating a PPP contract has the potential to interrupt services and for the Procuring Authority to incur significant costs.
The Procuring Authority will have two options in case of a termination. The appropriate option should be decided well before the termination of the PPP contract such that the Procuring Authority can plan the transition and avoid the risk of suffering disruption or interruption in service delivery.
