ECONOMIC OUTLOOK


International Markets: Slower growth

› Weaker national economies

› Limited migration due to soft housing markets

› Shifting and cautious capital infrastructure investors

› Some bright spots - Growth in China and Canada

› Improving economic indicators


Fiscal Situation: Difficult Times

› Limited growth in tax revenues– Commercial and residential real estate correction– Tax reforms (property, other)

› Less federal, state and local revenues› Federal/National funding at risk

– Stimulus package drop-off after 2010 (U.S.)– Healthcare reforms and costs (Global)


Global UrbanizationThe world’s urban population is projected to grow at twice the annual pace of the total population.

Public-Private Partnerships: An Overview


What is PPP?

A Public-Private Partnership is a contractual agreement between a public agency (federal, state or local) and a

private sector entity, or not for profit. Through this agreement, the skills and assets of each sector (public and private) are shared in delivering a service or facility for the

use of the general public. In addition to the sharing of resources, each party shares in the risks and rewards in

the delivery of the service and/or facility.


PPP is not privatization

PPP Privatization

Asset ownership Usually no irrevocable transfer of assets

Transfer of ownership of assets

Public responsibility Set policy and service levels Regulation

Level of services Mechanism for shared services

Authorities withdraw from service

Risk/Reward Shared Transferred

Mode Partnership Self-interest


What makes a partnership work?


Benefits of PPP

› Earlier delivery of projects

› Ability to deliver multiple facilities as needed by demand

› Risk shifted (shared) from Public to Private sector

› Cost Savings- Construction- Efficiencies/Innovation- Potential life-cycle costs as private sector invests more up front to

save operating costs- Lower initial costs (e.g., pre-development; construction)


Benefits of PPP

› Positive impact on bond/debt capacity and ratings if private debt used

› Economic development catalyst/increased tax revenues – (e.g., create jobs, impact property values)

› Possible operating expense (vs. capital) treatment

› Increased flexibility for public agency

› Public sector can focus on its’ core competencies

› Innovative funding solutions

› Revenue possibilities and longer-term cash flow

Design/Build/Maintain (BOM)

› Private sector:– Designs and builds facility– Signs maintenance contracts

› Public sector:– Finances – Operates

Design/Build – CM@RiskDesign/Build/Maintain (BOM)


Build/Operate/Transfer (BOT)

› Private sector:– Designs and builds facility– Assign operation contracts for non

governmental functions– Provides some or all of financing

› Asset ownership– Transfer to public agency varies

• Can be at end of construction• Can be at end of operation/finance contract• Can be at the option of public agency


Build/Operate/Transfer (BOT)


Lease/Develop/Operate

› Private sector:– Leases or buys existing facility– Renovates, modernizes, expands facility

› Public sector– Public agency may provide operation


Build/Operate/Transfer (BOT)Lease/Develop/Operate


Tax-Exempt Lease/Bond

› Private sector:– Finances capital assets or involves private

investments› Bond/Lease payment

– Interest payments are tax exempt under State/Federal laws

› Asset ownership– Transferred to public agency at beginning

or end of lease/bond term– May be owned for non for profit Special

Purpose Entity



Lease PurchaseSale/Leaseback

Tax-Exempt Lease/Bond


Private Finance Initiative

› Model developed in UK (used by Canada, Australia, others)

› Risk is mostly transferred to the private sector› Private sector:

– Designs and builds facility– Provides all of financing– Provides maintenance under contract– Provides operations of non-education

functions under contract› Public sector

– Accrues equity as lease payments are made– Own asset at end of lease term

Joint Ventures & Strategic Partnerships

Cost Value


Operations

› Only will provide non-governmental services– Food services– Energy and utilities

› Not a necessary component for PPP› Performance guarantees

– Financial penalties


Maintenance

› Can provide complete services– Building maintenance– Grounds maintenance

› Performance guarantees– Financial penalties

• Example: Financial penalties if light bulb is not replaced within 30 minutes of reporting

› Facility must be in proper shape when lease term is up


Primary School Example- Knowsley UK

– Introduction– Balfour Beatty Capital was awarded a 25-year, $294 million contract to design and construct seven new

learning centers.– Private investment: $38 million in the project.

• Project overview– Construction of seven state-of-the-art learning centers which will replace all of the existing schools over

a 3-year period.– Maintenance of the schools will be undertaken by a subsidiary of Balfour Beatty.– Balfour Beatty will work with Knowsley Council in the further development of a clear educational vision

examining progressive learning environments and teaching models.

The vision for KnowsleyKnowsley will create learning centers – schools - that will be open in the evenings, on weekends and during the school holidays, making them available for the entire community. The centers will also provide other services for the community, such as healthcare, on the same site.

Education Councilman Larry Nolan said, “So much more is known today about the way children learn, and these new learning centers will be designed to meet their needs.”


K-12 Examples

“The pieces in our puzzle box have the following words on them; planning objectives, educational program goals, expertise, capability, capital funding, construction bonds, school improvement, tax incentives, housing, affordable housing, public programs and services, school choice, charter schools, private financing, flexibility, inflexibility, profit motive, bottom line, debt service, tax liability, public goals and objectives, early childhood development, responsibility, priorities, political considerations, repeat business, classroom space, community space, community learning, career education, etc.

The bottom line is that we in the D.C. Public Schools see {public-private partnerships} as an opportunity and valuable tool in the arsenal of school facility improvements and accommodation of educational program needs.”

Dr. Paul Vance, Superintendent, Washington, D.C. Public School Board


Higher Ed Example

University of Central Florida was able to build a convocation center where state funding was not available for such projects.

Example of PPP at University of Central Florida:


Hospital Example – Birmingham UK– Introduction– In June 2006, Balfour Beatty Capital was awarded a

40-year, $1.1 billion public-private partnership (PPP) project for Birmingham New Hospitals in the UK.

– Total committed investment is $46 million.› Project overview

– Relocates most of south Birmingham’s key clinical and mental health facilities to a single site

– Construction is being undertaken over 62 months through a joint venture between Balfour Beatty Construction and Haden Young.

› FM Services: Balfour Beatty Capital is responsible for the facilities management services at the hospitals. This has been subcontracted to Haden Building Management, the Balfour Beatty Group facilities management company.


Loudoun County Govt Center – Leesburg VA

› 158,000 SF, five-story government center including administrative headquarters and 418-space parking garage.

› Scattered operations consolidated in two locations and capitalized using tax-exempt bonds, creating ~$1 million in annual savings (~$22 million cumulative savings over lease term).

› County outsourced financing, design, development, and construction risk, realizing savings of ~10% of project costs.

› Private Partner: Gilbane Development Company

Process Risks


Process Risks

Risk Solution

Reputation Loss of reputation because a partner reneges on agreement Thorough pre-screening of partner

Expectation Unrealistic expectation- Include stakeholders in process- Clearly communicate status at every milestone

ProjectPrivate partner unable to deliver due to financial resources or experience

Select partner that can bring resources to accomplish goals

LegalProject being derailed due to violations of procurement or delivery laws

Research laws prior to RFP/RFQ process and ensure the document is compliant

Political Process can derail due to political fighting

Get political agreement prior to process


Balancing Risk with Costs

› The greater the transfer of risk, the higher the price› Project costs could grow and become prohibitively expensive› Transfer risk when it makes good economic sense
