Full textAbstract:
This paper analyzes the renegotiation problem in the context of public-private partnership projects. Utilizing a game-theoretic approach, an equilibrium is found in which the government finds that accepting renegotiation can be efficient. A first indicator is proposed based the public sector comparator (PSC) that can be estimated by policymakers as an additional tool when deciding about renegotiation. A second more theoretical indicator is derived to analyze the economic and financial variables affecting renegotiation. This indicator is applied to four case studies in different countries (England, Taiwan, Portugal and China) and the results suggest that the model performs well.

IntroductionGlobally, one in two people needing insulin lack access. High prices and poor availability are thought to be key contributors to poor insulin access. However, few studies have assessed the availability, price and affordability of different insulin types in low-income and middle-income countries in a systematic way.MethodsIn 2016, 15 insulin price and availability surveys were undertaken (using an adaptation of the WHO/Health Action International medicine price and availability measurement methodology) in Brazil, China (Hubei and Shaanxi Provinces), Ethiopia, Ghana, India (Haryana and Madhya Pradesh States), Indonesia, Jordan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Mali, Pakistan, Russia (Kazan Province) and Uganda. Data were collected in three sectors (public, private pharmacies and private hospitals/clinics) in three regions per survey. Insulin prices were standardised to 10 mL 100 IU/mL in US dollars ($). Data were also collected for four comparator medicines.ResultsMean availability was higher for human (55%–80%) versus analogue insulins (55%–63%), but only short-acting human insulin reached 80% availability (public sector). Median government procurement prices were $5 (human insulins) and $33 (long-acting analogues). In all three sectors, median patient prices were $9 for human insulins. Median patient prices for analogues varied between the public sector ($34) and the two private sectors ($44). Vials were cheaper than pens and cartridges. Biosimilars, when available, were mostly cheaper than originators. A low-income person had to work 4 and 7 days to buy 10 mL human and analogue insulin, respectively. For isophane human insulin, only three countries meet the WHO target of 80% availability of affordable essential medicines for non-communicable diseases in any sector.ConclusionImproving insulin availability and affordability needs to be addressed through national and global actions, including prioritising the supply of more affordable human insulin, increasing competition through the use of lower priced quality-assured biosimilars, negotiating lower prices from manufacturers and improving distribution systems.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to analyse fraud investigative practice in London local authorities with reference to recognised best practice and two comparator organisations, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and National Health Service (NHS).Design/methodology/approachPrimary research was undertaken through questionnaires to all London Boroughs and interviews with key personnel in two comparator organisations.FindingsEach London Borough has a specialist anti‐fraud response with professionally qualified investigators, demonstrates compliance with best practice and excels in areas such as case supervision and joint working. However, concerns remain, regarding a lack of agreed national standards and some failing to use the full range of investigative techniques, such as surveillance and computer forensic examination.Research limitations/implicationsThe research was limited to London local government and further work is needed outside the capital.Practical implicationsRecommendations are made for: the introduction of national professional guidance to investigators; minimum competency standards for fraud investigation; research into the applicability of the National Intelligence Model to high volume fraud; and a less fragmented approach both within and across local authorities.Originality/valueThere has been no previous research of this type and it may be useful to government when considering how to deal with fraud, local authorities and those with an interest in public sector fraud.

PurposePublic private partnerships (PPPs) face challenges in implementation and operation, and need efforts to improve their performance. The purpose of this paper is to review the PPP literature quantitatively and qualitatively, in order to establish challenge themes and set research directions.Design/methodology/approachMore than 4,000 papers published between 2008 and 2017 were retrieved. From this collection, papers from five major international journals were selected to explore extant PPP research findings under six main PPP challenges including: challenges related to financial management, concession period and price determination, operational phase, risk management, PPP project procurement and stakeholder management (SM). Initially, the papers were categorised quantitatively into the identified challenges and subsequently the articles were qualitatively analysed and discussed.FindingsPoor SM, the complexity of risk management models, project delivery time and cost overruns, inadequate consideration of whole life-cycle aspects and over-reliance on a Public Sector Comparator for evaluating PPPs are found to be the most commonly encountered issues. These all warrant more extensive attention and innovative solutions.Practical implicationsPPP projects have faced many challenges in practice and also existing research findings have limited application in practice. Challenges highlighted in this research can be a focus area in practice to improve the performance of PPPs.Originality/valueNo previous reviews have explored the challenges relating to PPP projects and how they can then addressed by further studies in the field. This review is intended to address that gap, and should help to shed light on further research directions to address the emerging challenges in PPP procurement.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to develop weights of key performance areas (KPAs) and performance indicators for public private partnerships (PPPs) in Bangladesh. Since a variety of PPP arrangements is observable, different performance measurement approaches exist in the literature. However, analysing the relative importance of indicators influencing the performance score of particular projects using the perspective of developing countries remains unexplored. Design/methodology/approach The authors’ method involves application of the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) to develop weights for eight KPAs for which 41 contributing performance indicators have been developed. In total, 68 respondents (62 per cent of the PPP practitioners in Bangladesh) participated in a structured questionnaire survey and their judgements have been found to be consistent, using consistency ratios, a geometric consistency index and one-way ANOVA test. Findings “Feasibility analysis”, “life cycle evaluation and monitoring” and “optimal risk allocation” are the most significant performance indicators in Bangladesh. “Financing” is the most important KPA, followed by “planning and initiation” and “transparency and accountability”. Interestingly, unlike the cost, time and quality measures of the public sector comparator analysis used in most developed countries, a different set of indicators and KPAs are found dominant. Research limitations/implications This suggests that performance indicators and their weights may differ for developing countries. Future research could usefully focus on testing this model in different countries and applying it to derive performance scores for individual PPPs. Originality/value An application of AHP in determining weights of the performance indicators represents a major contribution to the literature on PPP performance measurement in the developing countries including Bangladesh.

O instituto das Parcerias Público-Privadas (PPP), concebido desde os anos 1960 em solo norte-americano, desenvolveu-se sobremaneira a partir dos anos 2000 especialmente no Brasil e em países da Europa. Em Portugal foi institucionalizado em 2003, enquanto no Brasil legitimou-se essa modalidade de contratação a partir de 2004. Este artigo tem como objetivo principal discorrer sobre a auditoria realizada pelas Instituições Superiores de Auditoria dos citados países buscando efetuar uma comparação no que toca à espécie de controle a priori. Ademais, como objetivo secundário, buscou-se demonstrar a importância dos estudos do Value for Money, bem como do Public Sector Comparator no âmbito das contratações através de PPP. Para tanto, utilizou-se como método de estudo a pesquisa em fontes bibliográficas físicas e no meio digital, além da pesquisa jurisprudencial sobre o tema, que juntas tornaram possíveis a revisão da literatura. Como resultado, foi possível inferir que o controle prévio está previsto em ambos os ordenamentos jurídicos, porém em escalas diferenciadas. Enquanto em Portugal o visto prévio possui o condão de proibir as eventuais contratações irregulares, no Brasil o controle a priori restringe-se à distribuição de recomendações e orientações para a melhoria do processo, tornando, desse modo, o controle prévio mais frágil. Verificou-se, por fim, que no Brasil o foco das auditorias em PPP está voltado para o controle concomitante, conforme disciplina a Instrução Normativa nº 52/2007, do Tribunal de Contas da União.

Mestrado em Contabilidade, Fiscalidade e Finanças EmpresariaisPublic-Private Partnerships are defined by the OCDE (2008) as "an agreement between the government and one or more private partners (which may include the operators and the financers) according to which the private partners deliver the service in such a manner that the service delivery objectives of the government are aligned with the profit objectives of the private partners and where the effectiveness of the alignment depends on a sufficient transfer of risk to the private partners". Due to their characteristics and due to governments' limited ability of funding public infrastructures projects, they are becoming part of the government's portfolio as a good solution to fill the "infrastructure gap". We undertake OECD (2008) assembly of the top ten countries with the largest public-private partnerships deals in 2003 and 2004 and, we select those countries that have more formalised policy regarding the use of the public sector comparator and those that are more quoted in the literature (Australia, Canada and United Kingdom). We also select New Zealand because they already adopt the public sector comparator methodology even thought there percentage of public-private partnerships projects is not so expressive in the public investment as the other countries that we analysed. The purpose of this work is to find which methodologies are implemented, while establishing a comparison between all four countries. Several conclusions arise from our investigation. We found that all four countries adopt the public sector comparator in order to assess bids, and it is always created in the early phases of the project plan. We also observe that they all use different methodologies with the same purpose: achieving value for the taxpayers. However, there are substantial differences on the methodologies developed in each country.
Parcerias Público-Privadas são definidas pela OCDE (2008) como "um acordo entre o governo e um ou mais parceiros privados (que podem incluir os operadores e os financiadores), segundo a qual os parceiros privados entregam um serviço de tal forma que o objectivo de prestação de serviços do governo esteja alinhado com o objectivo de lucro dos parceiros privados e onde a eficácia do alinhamento depende de uma transferência suficiente de risco para os parceiros privados ". Devido às suas características e, devido à limitada capacidade dos governos de financiar projetos de infra-estruturas públicas, as parcerias público-privadas têm vindo a tornar-se uma boa solução para preencher o "gap de infra-estruturas". Analisamos o estudo da OCDE (2008) que aborda o conjunto dos dez países com os maiores negócios parcerias público-privadas em 2003 e 2004 e, selecionamos os países que têm uma política formalizada quanto à utilização do comparador do sector público, tendo em consideração aqueles que são mais citados pela literatura (Austrália, Canadá e Reino Unido). Selecionamos também a Nova Zelândia porque já adota a metodologia do comparador, ainda que a percentagem de projetos em parcerias público-privadas não seja tão expressivo no investimento público como os outros países que analisamos. O objetivo deste trabalho é encontrar metodologias que são aplicadas, ao estabelecer uma comparação entre os quatro países. Várias conclusões podem ser retiradas da nossa investigação. Concluímos que todos os países em análise utilizam o comparador para avaliar as propostas e que este é criado nas primeiras fases do desenvolvimento do projecto. Observamos também que todos os países em análise utilizam metodologias diferentes mas sempre com o mesmo objectivo: maximizar o valor para os contribuintes. Contudo, verificamos que existem diferenças substanciais entre as metodologias desenvolvidas por cada país.

Mestrado em Ciências EmpresariaisNum contexto onde as Parcerias Público Privadas (PPP) são um modelo privilegiado de cooperação entre o sector privado e público, importa entender a sua evolução em diferentes fases. Só assim é possível minimizar algumas das suas fragilidades entre as quais se destacam os pedidos de renegociação. Neste âmbito e com base nos dados disponibilizados em relatórios da Direção Geral do Tesouro nomeadamente de auditorias às PPP, foi analisada a evolução do número de PPP contratadas anualmente entre 1995 e 2010 assim como o número de pedidos de renegociação por tipo de pagamento, pedido, sector, fase de contrato, fator gerador do pedido de renegociação e valores financeiros envolvidos até 31 de Dezembro de 2012. Dos dados analisados conclui-se que as sucessivas alterações legislativas são o principal fator gerador, tornando o sector rodoviário, que por si já tem o maior número de PPP contratualizadas, como o sector com mais pedidos de renegociação. O facto do pagamento no sector ferroviário, o segundo com maior número de pedidos de renegociação, ser por tráfego torna o défice da procura como o fator gerador de renegociação maioritário para este sector. Nos pedidos de renegociação analisados e conforme dados disponibilizados, verificou-se que a maioria (37%) decorre 4 anos depois do início do contrato sendo 67% em fase de exploração. Aos pedidos aceites e com montante aprovado pelo concedente, espera-se um aumento do encargo público. Este aumento resulta dos 166 pedidos ainda em apreciação onde 30% representam 1408 milhões de euros, montante solicitado pelo concessionário.
In a context where PPPs are a privileged model of cooperation between private and public sectors, it is important to understand its evolution on the different phases. Only then will be possible to minimize some of its fragilities among which renegotiation requests stand out In this sense and based on the reports available by the Direção Geral do Tesouro in particular PPP audits, the evolution of the amount of PPP annually contracted between 1995 and 2012, the number of renegotiation requests per type of payment, sector, contract phase, generating factor for renegotiation requests and related financial values involved were analyzed till 31th of December 2012. From the data analyzed the conclusion was that consecutive changes in the legislation is the main factor, turning the road sector that by itself has the largest number of PPP contracted, as the sector with more renegotiation requests. The fact that the payment in the rail sector, second with biggest number of renegotiation requests, is done per traffic turns the demand deficit as the main factor for renegotiation in this sector. In the analyzed renegotiation requests and according to the data made available, the majority (37%) occurs during the first 4 years after the beginning of the contract while 67% are in the exploration phase. For the accepted requests and with the amount approved by the grantor, it is to be expected an increase on the public responsibility.

Mestrado em Economia e Política da Energia e do AmbienteO tema desta tese centra-se na construção de um instrumento de análise e comparação económica de duas formas distintas de contratação pública para a execução de infra-estruturas e prestação de serviços de utilidade pública: o Comparador Público-Privado (CPP). Contrapõem-se aqui a "contratação pública tradicional" - contratação da construção de uma determinada infra-estrutura (contratação de inputs) que será posteriormente explorada pelo próprio Estado, assumindo directamente a obrigação da prestação do serviço - à "contratação pública em regime de parceria público-privada" -o Estado, assumindo-se como regulador do serviço público, opta por contratar um serviço a longo prazo (contratação de um output), transferindo a responsabilidade da construção e posterior exploração para o Sector Privado. Este por sua vez proporá uma forma de gestão incorporando a noção de ciclo de vida do projecto, que poderá trazer inovações e benefícios económicos, se avaliados numa lógica do Valor Líquido Actual do projecto. A metodologia iniciada e materializada pela taskforce holandesa para Parcerias e que, passados dois anos, começa a ser exportada com as devidas adaptações pelo o Reino Unido, parte do princípio que a construção do CPP deverá preceder e fundamentar a opção política entre as duas alternativas de contratação referidas. A sua principal particularidade é, para além de comparar custos e receitas numa lógica de ciclo de vida do projecto, avaliar também os riscos das duas opções de contratação, ponderando-os na avaliação final. Neste trabalho utilizou-se o CPP para avaliar a adequabilidade e racionalidade económica do aprofundamento da participação do Sector Privado no Sector das Aguas, mais concretamente para um caso específico de subconcessão de uma ETAR, num Sistema Multimunicipal. E de salientar a actualidade deste tema já que, sendo consensual que sem maior co-financiamento do Sector Privado não será possível garantir, nos timings definidos, os níveis de qualidade do serviço e de atendimento previstos no PEAASAR, a instabilidade política que se tem vivido não tem permitido dar passos definitivos sobre a matéria.
This work focuses on the construction of an analytical instrument - the Public Private Comparator (PPC) - to appraise and compare the two distinctive public procurement procedures for contracting the construction of infrastructures aimed to provide a specific public service. On the one hand, the traditional public procurement procedures - on which it is contracted the construction of a specific infrastructure, on an input basis, that will be managed and explored directly by a public entity. On the other hand, the public procurement of a public-private partnership - on which the State chooses to contract the long-term provision of a service, on an output basis, transferring responsibility to the private partner as the State becomes a regulator of the service. The private party will think on the project's life cycle and therefore will manage the problems, coming up with innovations that, if evaluated on a Net Present Value basis, will bring up economical benefits. This methodology firstly implemented by the Dutch partnerships taskforce and which, two years later is being followed by other countries as the UK, holds on the fact that the PPC construction shall precede and support the political decisions for the form of contracting to be conducted. Its main particularity is, besides comparing costs and gains on a project's life cycle basis, to evaluate the risks of the two alternative procurement options, weighting them on the final evaluation. On the case study, the PPC was used to access for the suitability and economical rationale of promoting a stronger private participation on the Water Sector, more specifically on the sub-concession of a WWTP on a multi-municipal system. This theme is of major interest, as the strict timetable of the Portuguese Water Strategy foresees bigger achievements on the quality and level of attendance, that seem to be only achievable with a stronger co-financing private participation on the near future.

In his thesis, I will refer to the use of methods of public-private partnerships in the implementation of individual projects in the Czech Republic. In the theoretical description for the situation it is appropriate to this method (including the exact type) to use as a stage where it is better to use the method of procurement. Furthermore, I will give a legislative framework of PPP projects in EU countries and selected non-member countries. The practical part is focus on specific PPP projects that are in the Czech Republic are beginning to realize and I assess their risks, advantages and disadvantages in comparison with the already carried out projects in abroad and it is not convenient to deal with such projects through public-private partnerships. The aim of this thesis is to clarify the existing conditions of the possible impact on use of the PPP

Mestrado em Contabilidade, Fiscalidade e Finanças EmpresariaisA adopção de modelos de Parcerias Público-Privadas, em detrimento dos modelos de Contratação Tradicional como forma de fornecer bens e serviços públicos, tem sido recorrente a nível mundial. A justificação provem de um desafio duplo, se por um lado existem limitações orçamentais em muitos países, por outro, há a pretensão de desenvolver projectos de investimento público capazes de satisfazer necessidades colectivas. Deste modo, num contexto de partilha de riscos, o Estado pretende atrair capitais privados e ainda, beneficiar quer a nível de qualidade como de eficiência, das competências de gestão e técnicas do sector privado. O cenário jurídico das PPP é recente em Portugal, no entanto, os contratos partilham características, tais como, os parceiros privados garantirem diante de uma entidade pública, tipicamente de forma duradoura, o financiamento e a construção de infra-estruturas e até da sua manutenção/exploração, por forma a satisfazer uma necessidade colectiva. No término da concessão, se o objecto em causa, ainda estiver no domínio da entidade privada, então passará para jurisdição pública, denominando-se deste modo, de investimentos reversíveis para o Estado. Saliente-se que estas parcerias não são a solução milagrosa para todos os projectos, nestes termos, um mau projecto sem parceria, continuará a ser um projecto mau com parceria. Trazem vantagens e desvantagens, e obviamente, é obrigatório ponderar o custo-beneficio para o projecto comparativamente a opções alternativas, nomeadamente a Contratação Tradicional. Desta forma, só valerá a pena a implementação da parceria público-privada, se acarretar valor acrescentado ao projecto, o designado, Value for Money (^/M). O Trabalho Final de Mestrado realizado tem por base um estágio curricular na Estradas de Portugal, S.A. no âmbito das PPP's rodoviárias, focando o acompanhamento da subconcessão da Auto-Estrada do Centro.
Worldwide, the adoption of Public-Private Partnerships models has been frequent, instead of the Traditional Contracting Model, as a way to provide public goods and services. The explanation comes from a double challenge, on the one hand there are many countries with budgetary constraints, on the other hand, there is a goal of developing public investment projects that can fulfill collective needs. Thus, in a framework of shared risks, the Government intend to attract private capital and also still benefits from the quality and efficiency levels, of the management skills and techniques of the private sector. The legal landscape of PPP is recent in Portugal, however, contracts share characteristics such as the private partners have to ensure ahead of a public body, typically in a long-term way, the financing and construction of infrastructures and to their maintenance / operation, in order to satisfy a collective need. At the end of the concession, if the object in question is still under control of privates entities, then will move to public jurisdiction, calling itself reversible investment for the State. It should be highlighted that these partnerships are not the miracle solution for all projects. So in these terms, a bad project without the partnership, will continue to be a bad project in partnership. Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages, therefore is required to consider the cost-benefit of the project compared to alternative options, including the Traditional Contracting Model. Hence, the execution of a public-private partnership is only worthwhile, if generate added value to the project, the so called, Value for Money (VfM). The following Final Master Work is based on a internship at Estradas de Portugal, S.A. within PPP's in road infrastructure and focusing on the monitoring of the sub-concession Auto-Estrada do Centre.

Full textAbstract:
PPP is a generally accepted way of ensuring public services or public infrastructure on the basis of long-term contractual relationship, where public and private sectors share mutual benefits and risks resulting from the effort to secure the public infrastructure or public services . According to the current financial crisis, I think that the issue of PPP projects will be more important not only in the area of the Czech republic, but also in the whole world. The public sector is for the private partner reliable contractual partner. In a situation where is a lack of orders, we can expect that implementation of PPP projects will increase. Any PPP project was successfully completed in the Czech republic, the reason can be insufficient information, political and legislative support.

Mestrado em Gestão/MBAO problema em investigação que a Tese desenvolve é o da construção de um modelo alternativo de «procurement» para a Administração Pública que minimize os vícios e limitações do «procurement» tradicional e aumente a economia, eficiência e eficácia desta no provimento das necessidades públicas. A Tese desenvolve-se ao longo de cinco capítulos, sendo o primeiro consagrado à delimitação e relevância do tema, o segundo à caracterização e análise do «procurement» tradicional e o terceiro à definição, caracterização e análise do modelo alternativo proposto, o «procurement» PPP/PFI. O propósito do quarto capítulo é o de fornecer princípios de boa prática para a auditoria do «procurement» PPP/PFI, no âmbito das Instituições Supremas de Auditoria. O quinto capítulo conclui, no plano teórico dedutivo, sobre as vantagens e os riscos do «procurement» PPP/PFI reconhecendo-o como um modelo prescritivo e contingencial cuja adequabilidade a cada caso e correcta aplicação é indispensável para que atinja a plenitude dos seus efeitos. Em consequência, recomenda uma atenção particular nas auditonas a realizar pelos órgãos superiores de controlo e bem assim a adopção, nestas, de um corpo de princípios de boa prática cobrindo as áreas de risco assinaladas. Termina o capítulo com as conclusões sobre o «procurement» PPP/PFI confirmadas ou pelo menos não contraditadas pelos trabalhos de «research» realizados e conhecidos até à data.
The first three chapters of this dissertation aim to define characterise and analyse the Public Private Partnerships and more specifically its most generalized model, the PFI -Private Finance Initiative by contrast with traditional procurement. The analyses and characterization is based on Spain, France, UK and USA experience. Unfortunately, at the time, for Portugal, there was no documentation available on the subject, except audit reports on the first PPP/PFI contracts, signed by «Tribunal de Contas», the Supreme Audit Institution of Portugal, which were studied and considered, as mentioned in the bibliography. Along with the characterisation and analysis of PFI are deducted, on theory, the advantages and risks of the model in its perfection. A special weight is devoted to the distinction between the traditional procurement and the PPP/PFI procurement Chapter four tries to develop guidelines on auditing of PPP/PFI procurement by the Supreme Audit Institutions. The nature of the debate about the use of public private partnerships in the delivery of public services is about more than the use of a PPP/PFI in a specific situation. Last chapter, on one hand, conclude upon the realty of PPP/PFI based on the preliminary conclusions sustained by the few research works available .and, on the other hand, explores the implication of PPP/PFI expansion by raising the main questions which remain to be answered for lack of research.

Full textAbstract:
The thesis explains the formation of the PPP project feasibility study as an essential document in the preparatory phase of the project lifecycle. Its closer focus is on the economic evaluation of the investment project implementation using the PPP compared to the implementation using public procurement. The practical part refers to a specific example of calculating of the public sector comparator that is compared with the referential project and a value of money is determined as an indicator of profitability of both forms of implementation.
