The Critical Success Factors for Public-Private Partnership is a major research interest worldwide therefore this paper aims to methodically review studies on the CSFs for implementing PPP from some selected top tier academic journals from 1990 to 2013 (years inclusive). The search results indicated an increased research interest in the exploration of PPP CSFs since 1990. The mostly identified CSFs are risk allocation and sharing, strong private consortium, political support, community/public support and transparent procurement. It was further noticed that Australia, the U.K., China and Hong Kong have been the countries of focus for most research studies on PPP CSFs. Finally the research approaches adopted are case study, questionnaire survey and mixed methods. The findings revealed provide an overview of CSFs for PPPs in order to enhance future implementations. Moreover a checklist of CSFs for PPPs has been developed, which could be adopted for further empirical studies.
Stakeholders’ Perspectives on the Success Criteria for Public-Private Partnership Projects
International Journal of Strategic Property Management, 2018
Given the complexity and wide stakeholder interests in public-private partnership (PPP) projects, different parties have different expectations and definitions of PPP project success. This paper explores the perceptual differences on the success criteria for PPP projects among PPP stakeholders. A questionnaire survey was conducted with targeted international PPP experts from the academic, public and private sectors. The research findings show that each stakeholder group considers effective risk management as the most critical success criterion. Moreover, the public and private sectors consider meeting output specifications as the second most critical criteria, whereas the academic sector considers satisfying the need for public facility/service. Further analysis using non parametric tests shows significant differences on the ranking of the criterion, “satisfying the need for public facility/service” between the public and private sectors and between academic and private sectors. The...

Journal of Facilities Management, 2012
PurposeWith the increasing interest in public private partnership (PPP), there is a need to investigate the factors contributing to successful delivery of PPP projects. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the perceptions of respondents from Hong Kong, Australia and the UK on the importance of 18 such factors.Design/methodology/approachAn empirical questionnaire survey was conducted in Hong Kong and Australia. The survey respondents were asked to rate 18 factors which contribute to delivering successful PPP projects.FindingsThe findings from this survey were further compared with the results achieved by a previous researcher in a similar survey conducted in the UK. The comparison showed that amongst the top five success factors ranked by Hong Kong respondents, three were also ranked highly by the Australians and British. These success factors included: “Commitment and responsibility of public and private sectors”; “Strong and good private consortium”; and “Appropriate risk alloca...

Sustainable public-private partnership project performance is great challenge for project management domain. This study aims to investigate relationship between critical success factors for public-private partnership & sustainable public-private partnership project performance. CSF theory has been used to evaluate relationship. Quantitative approach has been used to determine the link between the study variables. Cross-sectional data with a primary method for data collection is used. An adapted questionnaire is used to get the data. The correlation analysis between study variables provides empirical evidence about the significant relationship between CSFs and sustainable PPP project performance. The results therefore provide significant information in deciding about the desired relationship and reaching the conclusion. The study results can be used by researchers and policymakers for the sustainable PPP projects performance and based upon the relationship strength CSFs can be accorded preferences.
MEASURING THE SUCCESS OF PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP PROJECTS: A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
The increasing reliance on public-private partnerships in the provision of infrastructure and services is well documented. However, despite an increasing reliance on public-private partnerships, the performance measurement of PPP projects is less clear in the normative literature. While assessment of success in traditional procurement approaches is relatively straightforward, PPPs, due to their multifarious nature, require more rigour in establishing the success factors and evaluating the extent of their contribution to the success of PPP projects. Using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approach, this paper develops a conceptual framework for assessing the success of PPP projects. The authors contend that the proposed framework should assist PPP stakeholders in evaluating the performance of PPP projects.
The Perception of Critical Success Factors for PPP Projects in Different Stakeholder Groups
Entrepreneurial Business and Economics Review, 2016
The main goal of the research is to enhance understanding which factors are perceived as critical for the success of public-private partnerships (PPPs) by different stakeholder groups on different stages of the project life cycle. Research Design & Methods: The paper builds on a larger research study looking at the development of the best practice framework for PPPs. The research is based on both a literature review and empirical studies. To examine the perception of critical success factors (CSFs) a questionnaire was conducted within different stakeholder groups for PPPs in Poland. Findings: The article concentrates on one of the two dimensions of a PPP project success which is the idea of critical success factors. The research reveals that public and private parties do not share common perception of the PPP success. In general, the private sector assigns lower values to the CSFs analysed from the whole life perspective of a PPP project. Implications & Recommendations: The research indicates that the interpretation of a PPP project success depends of the stakeholders' role in the project. Future research might try to integrate a wider range of stakeholders engaged in PPPs such as financial institutions or a final user of the services provided under a PPP project. Contribution & Value Added:. The results of the study provides helpful information to identify areas that stakeholders should pay a special attention to in order to achieve the success of a PPP project.

Examining the interrelationships among critical success factors (CSFs) for public private partnership (PPP) projects is of importance for improving PPP project performance and maintaining the sustainability of PPP project implementation. Previous studies mostly focused on the identification of the CSFs for PPP projects; limited studies investigated the interrelationships among CSFs. Hence, the research objectives are (a) to determine the interrelationships among CSFs of PPP projects taking into account the public and (b) to identify influence paths contributing to take advantage of CSFs in the process of PPP implementation. A literature review and expert interviews were adopted to construct the CSFs framework; nine hypotheses were constructed and tested by the structural equation modelling (SEM) based on the data collected from a questionnaire survey. This research reveals that the relationship between public and private partners is the leader-follower relationship, not the partnership relationship, in PPP projects, indicating that the responsibilities, power or resources existing among partners are very unequal. It also highlights that public involvement has a negative effect on the process of service provisions, and costs and risks exist in the process of public involvement in PPP projects. The determined interrelationships among CSFs will contribute to the sustainability and success of a PPP project.
Measuring the Characteristics among Critical Success Factors of PPP Infrastructure Projects
Jurnal Kejuruteraan, 2021
Private-Public Partnership (PPP) is an increasingly popular choice for policymakers in implementing critical public projects through the examination of essential factors of success of PPP and establishing an empirical model of PPP in the construction project in Malaysia. The PPP implementation model was hypothesised to investigate the measurements and dimensions of technology, Organisational, and project characteristics as critical success factors of PPP implementation. A quantitative methodology was employed to validate the measurements, hypothesis testing and validate a structural model of PPP implementation. A total of 238 respondents was involved in the survey of the hypothesised PPP model. SPSS version 22 as well as Analysis of Moment Variance (AMOS) software were employed to analyse the data gathered. Path analysis and mediated regression analysis of the structural equation model succeeded in determining the mediating effect of stakeholder and procurement on the relationship among critical success factors and PPP implementation. The overall results show a significant positive interaction of Organisational, technical, and project characteristics as essential factors of success on stakeholder and procurement as a mediator on the achievement of PPP implementation. This paper highlights not only the vital success factors for PPP but also offers a fundamental contribution model achieved through the empirical model of critical success factors and PPP implementation in the construction project in Malaysia. This study succeeds in establishing and validating a structural model of the PPP implementation model. The model contributes to the body of knowledge of PPP and benefits to practitioners as primary guidance on construction and business developments.
CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS (CSFs) FOR PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS (PPP) IN MALAYSIAN
Journal of Science and Technology - IUH, 2020
Public Private Partnership (PPP) is an increasingly popular choice for policymakers in implementing important public projects. To ensure the ultimate objectives of PPP/PFI, identifying the critical success factors (CSFs) of PPP implementation is crucial. For countries that are new at adopting PPP it is even more important for them to identify the success factors in order to maximize the advantages of this method and to reduce the risks for all concerned parties. PPP was officially announced in Malaysia under the Ninth Malaysia Plan in 2006. Since then, many government projects were delivered via PPP. In this study, the factors that are considered critical to the success of PPP project implementation in Malaysia have become a subject for investigation. Factor analysis and survey expert were used in this case. The findings showed that the 17 CSFs could be grouped into six underlying factors. The main contribution of this study is supplement and improves knowledge in the management of ...
The inability of the public sector to independently meet the increasing demand for infrastructure and services has prompted many governments to adopt Public-private partnership (PPP) as an alternative strategy. In worldwide practices, however, there are mixed results and controversy in the application of PPP model. The Public-private partnership has, for this reason, become an increasingly active research area mainly to establish the Critical Success Factors (CSFs) towards improving the PPP model. This article reviews the current debate on the subject of PPP and compares the findings of different literature regarding the relative importance of CSFs of PPP projects. The authors argue that the CSFs of PPP projects are distinctive to the context of location and time. The article concludes that this subjectivity has implications for the " guaranteed " success of both existing and future PPP projects.
