The World

In the last fifty years world tourism and hospitality industry experienced a phenomenal growth of international tourist arrivals, overnights and receipts. It is widely recognized that the tourism became one of the most dominating socio-economic activities at the beginning of the 21st Century. The example of Croatia speaks in favour of that statement. Tourism is the most prosperous industry and the essential development factor in Croatia. The great share of tourism results refers to family business that is of high importance to development strategy of Croatian tourism. Family business in Croatian tourism is based on households and family hotels. Family hotels are recognized on the tourism market by its original and identifiable service imbued with indigenous values and cultural heritage, diversity and individuality. Moreover, they are the most sound and prosperous segment of Croatian tourism and their top-level quality and high professionalism are basic elements of tourism development. Croatian strategic tourism development documents highlight the participation of private sector in tourism development. One of the possible ways of such participation is through public-private partnership (PPP). There are many examples of public-private partnerships in tourism around the world. According to world experiences, marketing and promotions and product development are the main areas where public-private partnership has developed. Despite the fact that tourism is very important economy generator, Croatian experiences with integral implementation of public-private partnerships in tourism are only at the beginning. The aim of this paper is to examine how Croatian family hotels could take a part in establishing public-private partnerships in tourism. Considering the world best practices on publicprivate partnership in tourism investment, the paper also suggests two acceptable partnership models. The first is related to existing tourism clusters while the second is more innovative and is related to the development of a new tourist complex. Proposed public-private partnership model for the new tourist complex development includes government (on local or/and national level) as public sector representative and family hotels as private sector representative. The paper also examines necessary prerequ

The research involves determination of the extent to which the public-private partnership model can contribute to the improvement and enhancement of the healthcare services in Macedonia. To achieve this purpose, the research embraces comprehension of the common advantages and disadvantages of this model, encompassed with a case study of the public-private partnership in the specialized-consultative health protection for the health activity-dialysis, together with other efforts to ensure high quality health protection. It also reflects the attitudes of the public authorities and private sector entities regarding the significance of the public-private partnership model, consideration of the advantages and disadvantages before entering public-private partnerships and the ways public-private partnerships affect the employees and employments.The study outlines planned and realised efforts to implement this model to ensure better and more efficient healthcare system.Generally, the results from the survey and the outlined case study present this model as good solution for many healthcare challenges, since public-private partnerships offer different services to the citizens that neither the public nor the private sector could separately achieve. The public-private partnership model leads to new employment opportunities according to the opinion of the public authorities, while the private sector entities consider that public-private partnerships increase the responsibility of the employees in such partnership in comparison to the public sector. The outlined case study is an example of successful public-private partnership model in the field of healthcare and can serve as motivation for further implementation of this model to ensure better, enhanced and modern health system.

Building on recent works that stress the importance of stakeholder engagement in partnerships, we propose a novel benchmarking framework for the evaluation of public–private partnerships. This framework describes mutuality and the preservation of organisational identity as the ideal characteristics of partnerships because they, in turn, encourage stakeholder support for public–private partnerships. Applying this framework to infrastructure public–private partnerships in Ireland, we note that mutual accountability has been weakened following the financial crisis. Meanwhile, consultation with clients such as key public–private partnership stakeholders, which would help articulate organisational identities, remains patchy across the education, justice and health public–private partnership that we investigate. Nonetheless, there are sectoral differences. In education, consultation centres on school principals while ignoring teaching staff and trade unions. In justice, attention is focused primarily on judges. Similarly, in health sector public–private partnerships, there is a strong focus on clinicians. Overall, private sector-driven consultation efforts are primarily pragmatic, with a focus on preventing delays and the dissatisfaction of key clients who could prevent future projects from materialising. We suggest that the combination of this calculated approach to consultation, together with the delegation of public–private partnership contracting to an arm’s-length government agency, is likely to promote a similar depoliticisation of Irish public–private partnerships as has been observed in other countries. We argue that the potentially harmful stakeholder disengagement that this might encourage can be addressed through a concerted set of measures focusing on improved transparency of decision-making, as well as frameworks that mandate client and public consultation. Points for practitioners Research has highlighted the importance of mutual accountability and the preservation of organisational identity in ensuring that public–private partnerships attract public participation and receive public approval. We investigate public–private partnerships in education, justice and health in Ireland, a country that is widely considered an exemplary public–private partnership practitioner. We observe that consultation by private sector public–private partnership participants with client organisations in these sectors is largely motivated by a desire to prevent hold-ups and secure future business rather than seeking to engage with a broad range of users and stakeholders. Together with the existing lack of evidence of benefits from public–private partnerships, this situation is likely to lead to dissatisfaction with the policy. Indeed, political parties critical of public–private partnerships have been able to significantly increase their share of the vote in a recent national election. Our conclusion is that such dissatisfaction is avoidable if the Irish government improves transparency around public–private partnership decision-making while strengthening requirements for public and client consultation.

Th e article discusses practical aspects of sustainable development necessary for the introduction of public-private partnership in the work of the Institute in the Russian Federation. Th e author analyses the requirements of the fi nancier for a private partner in terms of sustainable develop-ment mechanisms in diff erent countries of the world. Th e requirements that currently exist in the methodology for calculating the economic effi ciency of public-private partnership projects in the Russian Federation are also analyzed. Th e article describes not only diff erences in effi ciency assessment mechanisms, but also proposes an author’s method of integrating the principles of sustainable development into fi nancial mechanisms for implementing public-private partnershipprojects. Th e author proposes to change the methodology for assessing the risks of public-private partnership projects, introduce into the Russian methodology for assessing the eff ectiveness of projects requirements not only on the need to substantiate the applied calculation mechanisms, but also on the development by a private partner of strategies for the sustainable development of the project, as well as a strategy for the sustainable development of the project region. Th e changes will qualitatively supplement the fi nancial settlement mechanisms that aff ect the implementation of all public-private partnership projects in the Russian Federation, including minimizing thefi nancial risks of the state partner.

A spectrum of requirements for the procurement of public infrastructure under various public–private partnership arrangements has been communicated by governments to the private sector participants. This paper suggests a structure for these requirements and demonstrates how they have been realized in public–private partnership projects. Government requirements are categorized and described under a structure of three dimensions: rights, obligations, and liabilities. Each dimension is further defined and explained through a number of attributes. The structure provides insights as to the basis for the different modes under public–private partnerships such as build–operate–transfer, build–own–operate–transfer, and build–transfer–operate. The structure is used to examine government requirements in a number of public–private partnership transportation projects. The results show that, for each dimension and its related attributes, comprehensive and clear articulation of government requirements is generally needed. This will reduce the amount of supplemental materials issued for the request for proposals, help consortiums in responding with proposals that can fit the requirements and reduce the amount of time spent in negotiations and (or) the need for contract amendments to reflect marketplace realities missed earlier.Key words: public–private partnerships, concessions, development agreements, franchise agreements, transportation projects.

Pros And Cons

Public-private partnership (PPP) arrangements have been used all over the world to develop infrastructure and provide public services. The principle of this procurement option seems sound. It consists of obtaining a (private) partner who makes the upfront initial investments, manages the infrastructure that will be paid for during its lifespan and assumes all of the corresponding responsibilities. However, the empirical world has proven that frequently results are different from those expected and that the price to pay for service is greater than predicted and sometimes even greater than when traditional public works are involved. With respect to the use of PPP projects, Brazil is no exception. Currently, it is making one of the biggest PPP investments in the world. This paper discusses the use of the PPP model in the Brazilian water sector, its pros and cons and the existing dangers. It also makes some recommendations to improve these contracts. Although the balance seems positive, this research provides some evidence of room for improvement because preliminary studies and procurement documents are seldom well prepared, there is little competition, the risk matrix is unbalanced, favoring renegotiations and the private sector, and contract management is inadequate.

The Impact

Objective: Public-private partnerships (PPP) have been used recently in many countries for reforming the structural health sector. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of PPP models in hospitals on raising the awareness of health policy makers, managers, and authorities to make sound decisions and planning. Information sources and selection methods for the study: This review was conducted in 2019 by searching the databases of Scopus, ProQuest, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The following keywords were used for the search: public private partnership, PPP, public hospital, public private partnership in hospital, and partnership model. Furthermore, Persian equivalents of these key words were searched in databases of Scientific Information Database and Irandoc from 1990 to 2017. A total of 954 articles were studied in a step-by-step manner. Results: Finally, 21 articles related to the study objectives entered the research. Based on the results collected from reviewing the selected papers, PPP in hospitals were categorized into 9 different categories of Service Purchase, Outsourcing, Management Contract, (Design, Build, Finance, Operate), (Build, Own, Operate), (Build, Own, Operate, Transfer), (Buy, Own, Lease back), Alzira model and Privatization. So, PPP influenced the performance of hospitals. Conclusion: Overall, PPP can be a good solution for the hospital sector that can improve the hospital performance in the case of providing the necessary contexts. However, these models are not generalizable to all parts of the health system and may face numerous challenges in implementation.
