This book discusses a unique combination of best practices and
lessons learned, including evaluation and transparency issues not
found elsewhere in other texts. Given that P3s are evolving and
changing, it contains the most up to date information and review of
relevant sources. Other topics that have become more important are
reviewed, including the value of benefit cost analysis and the
appropriate discount rate to use for value for money analysis.
Practices and policies are discussed throughout, highlighting
efforts that could lead to successful outcomes. Although
transparency is an issue discussed by many, this research indicates
that greater transparency would lead to more publicly accepted P3s
and ensure greater success. Given recent national news coverage of
relevant topics, such as the Highway Trust Fund "running out of
money," President Obama's call for an infrastructure fund, and
increasing Congressional interest and testimony, the content of
this book is timely. A concurrent theme commonly addressed by other
books and commentaries is the complexity of the topic and the lack
of understanding of P3s. This research identifies practices and
procedures that are innovative and "cutting edge." Many of the best
practices identified are not uniformly adopted by all officials
wishing to create P3s. The analysis does not simply describe these
practices, but provides insights into the potential advantages of
adoption. Experiences in the United States as well as selected
international efforts provide a wide range of potential sources
from which to draw upon. This book provides a series of case
studies and examples, including one chapter devoted to ten studies
that were written by several internationally known authors.
References to actual experiences are found throughout almost all of
the chapters. These case studies reinforce and illustrate relevant
points made throughout.
