“…DA is a hazard-based duration model and represents a class of analytical methods which are appropriate for modelling data that have as their focus, an end-of-duration occurrence, given that the duration has lasted to some specified time (Hensher and Mannering 1994). This method has been used previously in empirical models of unemployment duration (Arulampalam and Stewart 1995), self-employment duration (Taylor 1999), the adoption of PPP enabling legislation within US states (Geddes and Wagner 2013) and local government tenure length (Castro and Martins 2013). Specifically within our study, DA facilitated studying the time (in months) between a project contract notice and project contract award/financial close.…”

PPP Procurement in Ireland: An Analysis of Tendering Periods

The relative complexity of procurement under public-private partnership (PPP) means that tendering periods can be longer compared to traditional procurement models. Reducing the tendering period is therefore an important challenge if PPP is to deliver infrastructure on time and within budget. Using data from 59 PPP projects in Ireland we find that the average tendering period has been 34 months. Analysis using duration analysis shows that tendering periods have fallen over time and are positively but not strongly associated with the capital value of projects. Tendering periods are longer for projects that do not involve private finance with the majority of such projects procured by local authorities. We use two case studies of PPP procurement to explore these issues further. Both cases highlight the complex array of factors that can impact on tendering periods some of which are outside the control of the procurement authority.

“…Third, there has clearly been a move from studying PPPs solely through a set of technical, formal and utilitarian objectives towards more socio‐political as well as informal objectives. Donahue and Zeckhauser () ask, for instance, what shared discretion means for parties, Brinkerhoff and Brinkerhoff () speak of good governance norms as integral to partnerships and Geddes and Wagner () examine how state enabling laws increase PPP investment. Fourth, there has been a transition whereby PPP research is coming from an increasing number of academic disciplines.…”

This paper reviews the research agenda lineage on public-private partnerships (PPPs) from Broadbent and Laughlin's seminal piece in 1999. The PPP phenomenon is viewed at five levels: project delivery, organisational form, policy, governance tool and as a phenomenon within a broader historical and cultural context. We argue that whilst a variety of research issues will continue to be relevant, five corresponding areas deserve future visibility for a renewed research agenda: (1) Financialisation of PPPs, (2) global PPP market actors, (3) internationalisation of policy on PPPs, (4) long-term complex contracts as a governing regime and (5) PPPs in BRICS and developing countries.

“…Other studies that focus on developing countries include Banerjee, Oetzel, and Ranganathan (2006), which found that institutional structure affects private investment in public infrastructure, in terms of the number of projects and the value of these investments. From a slightly different perspective, Geddes and Wagner (2013) conducted an empirical analysis of statistical associations between the passage of P3-enabling legislation in USA, which is an important institutional component of P3s, and various political and economic factors. As such, both case studies and statistical analyses have been employed by scholars to address research questions regarding P3 institutions.…”

Data Review of Transportation Infrastructure Public–Private Partnership: A Meta-Analysis

2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The limited understanding of public-private partnerships (P3s) for transportation infrastructure finance has been generally attributed to a lack of data. The more fundamental question of how P3 data are utilized in the literature is more relevant and critical, but remains unclear. This study investigates this question by examining the linkages between research objectives and data characteristics through a meta-analysis of infrastructure P3 studies using multinomial regressions. It analyzes 95 empirical studies that adopt actual data, selected from a P3 research database that includes over 345 studies and are classified into five categories including performance, contract, risk, value for money, and institutional factors. Results show that the case studies are less frequently utilized to understand P3s' institutional issues compared to those that focus on P3s' performance or VFM. Survey data are more frequently used to study P3 contracts rather than issues related to P3 project risk. We highlight the need for policy-makers to require continuing disclosure of P3 performance for validating the effectiveness of the procurement model and to improve the practice.
