Public-Private Partnerships as Collaborative Projects: Testing the Theory on Cases from EU and Russia
2016
Social Science Research Network
We view PPPs as collaborative projects with information frictions. Typical public procurement contracts tackle the problems of asymmetric information. ...
We demonstrate what specific features of a partnership can improve feasibility of projects, and thus both provide a justification of PPP as a form of public good provision, and demonstrate how and whether ...
QED In our model, there is no specific mechanism to determine the optimal penalty on the public partner. ...

Public-Private Partnerships as Collaborative Projects: Testing the Theory on Cases from EU and Russia
2018
International Journal of Public Administration
This paper views PPPs as collaborative projects with imperfect information between parties. ...
Four UK and Russian cases of PPP projects are analysed within the above framework, focusing on types of contracts, contributions of both partners, and specific partnership elements. ...
If the project fails, and it is established that the public partner delivered in line with the agreement, this implies that the private partner failed to meet the terms of the contract, and penalties are ...

Section 3 develops the model for a project with a PERT structure and statistically dependent activities. ...
Assuming linear costs for starting activities earlier and a linear project tardiness penalty, early optimization models for project buffers addressed particular project network structures. ...
If c n+1 >0 but g n+1 =0, then there is positive incentive to finish the project earlier. ...
