Abstract: In the African context, despite the criticism leveled at Public-Private Partnerships (PPP), they continue to be attractive. The question that arises, therefore, is to know to what extent the application of PPPs has been accompanied by an evolution in public control methods. Based on an interpretivist epistemological approach and interviews with PPP stakeholders in urban and peri-urban hydraulics in Senegal, study shows contractualized controls, adapted to the performance objectives assigned to these new modes of management of public services. The receptiveness of performance-oriented control tools by stakeholders was noted, despite some reluctance. However, traditional controls remain, but with a new purpose, that of supporting those based on outputs.
