The ABC's of PPPs-A Primer on Public Private Contracts

This live webinar will provide you with an introduction into this new project structure which has increased in use over the past several years from major infrastructure projects to smaller local projects. Areas that will be covered include factors increasing the use of public private contracts; types of projects for which public private contracts are used; typical models for public private contracts; the advantages, disadvantages and risks associated with this project delivery model; structuring the agreements and the role of the different project participants.
