Guidelines on how to procure and implement PPPs in the EU

The European PPP Expertise Centre (EPEC), at the European Investment Bank (EIB), has published a Guide to Guidance designed to assist public officials responsible for the procurement and implementation of public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects. The Guide focuses on transport infrastructure and is based on best practice worldwide.

Given the poor state of public finances, the European Union is placing renewed emphasis in attracting private finance and expertise into infrastructure investments. PPPs are based on long term contracts that involve the private sector in designing, building, financing and operating public infrastructure services. PPPs are complex arrangements which require the public contracting authorities to rely on professional guidance from technical, legal, environmental, financial and economic advisers.

Frontier (Europe) advised EPEC leading a team of PPP experts in the preparation of the Guide to Guidance. For more information, please contact Dr. José Carbajo.
