Purpose-The land is a critical resource for public-private partnerships (PPPs) in infrastructure development. However, acquisition of land for PPP infrastructure projects implementation increasingly becomes problematic in developing countries. Yet, effort at investigating the factors causing a delay in land acquisition for PPP infrastructure projects through an empirical method in developing countries received scant attention. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to identify and critically assess the factors predisposing PPP projects implementation to land acquisition delay in Nigeria using an empirical approach.Design/methodology/approach-The study adopted literature review and questionnaire survey. For instance, literature review was used to identify the factors causing delay in land acquisition for PPP projects in developing countries, which was used to design the questionnaire survey culminating in data analysis. In order to capture a broad perception, the questionnaires were administered to three different primary stakeholder groups comprised public sector authorities (i.e. ministries, department, agencies), concessionaires, and lenders/banks involved in PPP projects implementation in Nigeria. Data collected were analysed using mean score, Kruskal-Wallis test, and factor analysis. Findings-The study revealed the mean score ranking of 22 identified factors causing a delay in land acquisition for PPP projects in Nigeria. The result of factor analysis grouped the 22 identified factors into 4 principal factors namely, resettlement issues with political interference; non-availability of land with a higher cost of land transactions; weak planning institutions; and rehabilitation issues with extensive legal delays.Practical implication-These study findings have implications for both policymakers considering PPP projects and private investors seeking to finance a PPP project in developing countries. Also, the study findings would be useful for the governments in Nigeria and other developing countries to formulate clear policies framework that facilitates the smooth acquisition of land for PPP projects.Originality/value-The study will be beneficial to the potential local and foreign private investors, and governments by broadening their awareness on impediments in land acquisition for PPP projects in Nigeria and developing countries at large. These study findings are crucial as not many empirical studies have been conducted in Nigeria, and many other developing countries.

“…At present, the number of PPP infrastructure projects undertaken in Nigeria are of increase ranging from airport, seaports, roads, rails, power and energy, markets complex development, university hostel development, housing, commercial offices among others. Therefore, in a globalizing world there is a considerable interest in identifying critical success factors (CSFs) that made PPP projects successful (see Qiao et al, 2001;Jefferies et al, 2002;Zhang, 2005;Li et al, 2005;Cheung et al, 2012;Babatunde et al, 2012;Dada and Oladokun, 2012;Famakin et al, 2012;Babatunde et al, 2015) among others. Bullen and Rockart (1981) argued that the potential application and usefulness of the CSFs concept generated considerable interest in industry, as CSFs seemed to be an aid to management to strategize, plan, manage, monitor and achieve organisational goals.…”

Thus, the identification of metrics and standards for measuring the maturity of stakeholder organisations on CSFs for PPP projects implementation remain a challenge. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to use CSFs to develop a process maturity and determine the current maturity levels of stakeholder organisations in PPP projects implementation in Nigeria.Design/methodology/approach-The study adopted literature review and six PPP project case studies including interviews in each case study and expert forum. The outcome of a comprehensive literature review provides a total list of fourteen CSFs that made PPP projects successful in Nigeria. These CSFs were employed for capability maturity levels definition ranging from level 1(Ad hoc) to level 5(Optimizing) in line with Capability Maturity Model (CMM) concept. Quantitative assessment was considered as a support tool for making an overall assessment of both the public and private organisations current capability maturity levels and for comparison approach.Findings-A capability enhancement framework for stakeholder organisations in PPP project was developed. This framework was employed in assessing the current capability maturity levels of stakeholder organisations involved in PPP projects in Nigeria. Using this framework, it was found that public sector organisations were positioned between maturity level 1 and maturity level 2 (out of 5 maturity levels) on CSFs applicable to them. While most private sector organisations were placed in maturity level 2 on CSFs associated with them. Practical implication:The results emanated from this study pr...

“…Some time management related principles or CSFs for PPPs implementation are also evident in literature [38][39][40][41][42][43]. For example, within the context of Malaysia, "ample time to evaluate proposal" was among the CSFs in housing projects identified by [39] study.…”

Despite the advocated benefits of Public–Private Partnerships (PPPs) such as alleviating the housing problems within the developing countries, the PPP implementation process is fraught with several challenges; including project management (PM) related ones. Tanzania, like many developing countries, has higher PPP projects termination rates in comparison to the global average. This suggests a lack of effective PM practices and principles integration. To bridge that knowledge gap, this study applies the theoretical lenses of innovation diffusion theory (IDT) to identify the extent of integration of PM practices and principles during the implementation of PPPs in Tanzanian housing projects. A qualitative approach comprising 10 semi-structured interviews was conducted among PPP practitioners. Directed content analysis was employed for the analysis. Based on frequency of citations, 14 PPPs sustainable PM practices and principles for PPPs implementation are identified. The three most relevant practices and principles were: official and unofficial site visits, documenting the inspections, and site meetings. Assessing the actual work done against the schedule of works was identified as the prevalent project performance of PPP. The results are expected to further nurture an improved appreciation of the best integration PM practices and principles associated with successfully implementing PPPs in housing projects.
