A Guidebook on Public-Private Partnership in Infrastructure 

 

CHAPTER 1 
PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS IN INFRASTRUCTURE:
REVISITING THE BASICS 
This chapter revisits the basics of public-private partnerships (PPP) in 
infrastructure with a focus on:
• The characteristics that make PPPs different from conventional public 
sector projects; 
• Models in public-private partnerships; and 
• The basic structure of a PPP model. 
The public officials, involved in PPP project planning and development, 
implementation and contract management, need to have clear understanding of 
these basics. 
A. THE CHARACTERISTICS THAT MAKE PPPs DIFFERENT 
1. What is public-private partnership in infrastructure projects? 
Governments in most developing countries face the challenge to meet the 
growing demand for new and better infrastructure services. As available funding from 
the traditional sources and capacity in the public sector to implement many projects 
at one time remain limited, governments have found that partnership with the private 
sector is an attractive alternative to increase and improve the supply of infrastructure 
services.
The partners in a PPP, usually through a legally binding contract or some 
other mechanism, agree to share responsibilities related to implementation and/or 
operation and management of an infrastructure project. This collaboration or 
partnership is built on the expertise of each partner that meets clearly defined public 
needs through the appropriate allocation of

• Resources 
• Risks 
• Responsibilities, 
and 
• Rewards 
It is important to emphasize here that a PPP is not a solution option to an 
infrastructure service problem but it is a viable project implementation mechanism for 
a preferred solution option.

Adapted from the definition of PPP provided by the Canadian Council for PPPs (see the Council’s PPP 
definition at http://www.pppcouncil.ca/aboutPPP_definition.asp). Some other terms such as private sector 
participation (PSP) and private participation in infrastructure (PPI) are also used. These terms may not 
always have the same meaning, however.
