In the past decade, public-private partnerships (P-3s) have become a popular tool, at least in concept, to help governments balance these tensions. P-3s have been touted as the answer for infrastructure and services that governments don’t have the resources to address. But, any budget offi cer or other public offi cial who has looked closely at the private sector soluti ons knows that you never get something for nothing. The private sector might be willing to carry risk the public sector doesn’t want, or provide capital sooner than the public sector capacity allows, but these benefi ts come at a cost; and, someti mes, that cost is hard to measure. At the same ti me, there can be a real benefi t for early delivery of a project the public wants to see complete, and creati ng synergies with private development can build economic momentum, encouraging growth and investment beyond an initi al P-3. How then, does a public enti ty know when a P-3 is good deal? The fi rst and most important rule of thumb is that you can’t measure what you don’t understand.
