Synopsis:

This book will consolidate and develop a body of knowledge for public-private partnership (PPP) project management that also captures, integrates, and showcases the latest international research and development on this important topic. Although used for centuries, PPP has been more widely adopted worldwide over the past three decades; especially in the aftermath of COVID-19, it is expected to grow even further. PPP projects have significantly different characteristics compared to traditionally procured public projects. The management of PPP projects is hence much more complex and has faced several challenges in recent years. It is essential that we consolidate the scattered knowledge on the field to date and develop it further to benefit from the potential of PPPs and achieve sustainability of the produced infrastructure and related services. To do so, this book will examine key issues in PPP project management and identify and harness the latest research studies and practices. It is a must-read for PPP researchers, financiers, project managers, consultants, policy makers, and any other participants including decision makers who are involved in PPP procurement and delivery.
