Chapter 9 in Public–Private Partnerships for Infrastructure Development, 2019, pp 188-204 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Globally, public_private partnerships (PPPs) have risen in popularity as an alternative procurement model for infrastructure development projects. The development of infrastructure PPPs depends to a large extent on institutional maturity, where mature institutions are characterized by well-established norms and coordination procedures for infrastructure PPP developments. While PPPs have been widely researched and remain subject to extensive debate, the role of institutional maturity in PPP governance has been largely overlooked in the field of engineering project organization (EPO). To address this knowledge gap, this chapter evaluates how institutional settings affect the public sector’s governance capacity to effectively develop infrastructure PPPs. It concludes with normative recommendations for institutional reform of PPP governance in the United States.
