Considerations for Public-Private-Partnerships (P3s)
|
|
|
More and more states are being afforded the statutory authority to add Public-Private Partnerships (P3s) as a tool in their toolbox. A public-private partnership is defined as "a long-term agreement between a government and the private sector to share the risks and rewards of delivering an essential public service." This new report highlights how different government entities can work together to develop successful P3s in state government. It includes information on when P3's should be considered, risk factors, practical considerations and current P3 laws.
Earlier this year, and with the support of the Governing Institute, NASCA joined with the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) and the National Association of State Facilities Administrators (NASFA) to discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by this innovative strategy.
