Abstract: This paper examines the role of success in public-private partnerships (PPPs or P3s) through the case of the Port of Miami Tunnel. Trends in infrastructure procurements within the USA have begun shifting with public-private partnerships becoming a more popular option for public agencies. These partnerships create a direct line for private sector investment into public asset-based projects while providing the public agency with an alternative means to finance projects which were once thought too costly for the agency or traditional contracting out models of procurement. The case study is analysed through the scope of a previously established model of success in P3 contracts with future implications of this contract discussed.
