2015 Thesis/Dissertation

Abstract

Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) have emerged as one of the major approaches for delivering infrastructure projects in recent years (Kwak, Chih, & Ibbs, 2009). Akintoye, Beck, & Hardcastle (2003) define PPPs as a long-term contractual arrangement between a public sector agency and a private sector concern, whereby resources and risk are shared for the benefit purpose of developing a public facility. The principal aim of a PPP for the public sector is to achieve value for money in the services provided while ensuring that the private sector entities meet their contractual obligations properly and efficiently (Grimsey & Lewis, 2002). South Africa has the greatest cumulative experience of public-private partnerships in Africa, with over 50 such partnerships in development or implementation at national or provincial level.
