Abstract

A quick review of the literature suggests that many communities around the world have embraced the concept of government and private-sector partnerships and collaborations. The reasons for each partnership differ, but there are numerous common elements that drive the parties to work together. Among these is the desire to:

  • Right-size the infrastructure
  • Enhance accountability, especially to taxpayers and beneficiaries
  • Improve efficiency
  • Secure cost savings and/or improve outcomes with existing resources
  • Establish new sources of financing
  • Enhance impact
