The Critical Success Factors for Public–Private Partnership is a major research interest worldwide therefore this paper aims to methodically review studies on the CSFs for implementing PPP from some ...selected top tier academic journals from 1990 to 2013 (years inclusive). The search results indicated an increased research interest in the exploration of PPP CSFs since 1990. The mostly identified CSFs are risk allocation and sharing, strong private consortium, political support, community/public support and transparent procurement. It was further noticed that Australia, the U.K., China and Hong Kong have been the countries of focus for most research studies on PPP CSFs. Finally the research approaches adopted are case study, questionnaire survey and mixed methods. The findings revealed provide an overview of CSFs for PPPs in order to enhance future implementations. Moreover a checklist of CSFs for PPPs has been developed, which could be adopted for further empirical studies.
•The CSFs for implementing PPP projects is increasingly becoming important to both researchers and practitioners.•Papers on CSFs for PPPs from 1990 to 2013 were analyzed quantitatively.•The top key CSFs from literature from 1990 to 2013 have been identified.•Other insights such as active contributors, research origin and methods have been analyzed.•Research gaps and future research directions are highlighted.
The present study investigates the effect of public‐private partnership investment in energy and technological innovation on consumption‐based carbon emissions for China from 1990Q1‐2017Q2. This ...study employs generalized least square (GLS) based unit root test, Maki cointegration test, fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS), dynamic ordinary least square (DOLS), canonical cointegration regression (CCR) and frequency domain causality test. The finding of this study shows that (a) the cointegrating relationship among public‐private partnership investment in energy, technological innovation, renewable energy consumption, exports, imports, and consumption‐based carbon emissions is proved; (b) exports, renewable energy consumption and technological innovation are helpful to lower consumption‐based carbon emissions; (c) both public‐private partnership investment in energy, GDP and imports leads to increased consumption‐based carbon emissions; (d) in the long term, public‐private partnership investment and technological innovation cause consumption‐based carbon emissions in China. This study recommends technological innovation for the cleaner production process and public‐private partnership investment in renewable energy.
The success of Public–Private Partnerships (PPPs) largely depends on the performance of tendering processes. This research aims to conduct a comparative analysis of critical factors affecting the ...effectiveness and efficiency of PPP tendering in Australia and China. A triangulation of literature review, semi-structured interviews and questionnaire survey was used. The research identified 14 critical factors underpinning the implementation of PPP tendering, under 7 dimensions: (1) Robustness of business case development; (2) Quality of project brief; (3) Public sector capacity; (4) Governance structures; (5) Effectiveness of communication; (6) Balance between streamlining and competition; and (7) Level of transparency of tendering processes. The following analysis suggested that there are statistically significant differences in eight factors between the two countries. By adopting the recommended strategies, both public and private entities engaging in PPP projects will be at a better position to structure and manage the tendering processes.
•We identified 14 critical factors affecting PPP tendering processes.•We conducted 15 interviews and received 57 questionnaires in Australia and China.•Clarity and responsiveness of governance structures ranked top 3 in both countries.•Availability of sufficient project pipelines is most important in Australia.•Involvement of public officials and leadership is most critical in China.
Objective
To illustrate the process of developing and sustaining an academic‐public health partnership for behavioral health integration through an expansion of the Aligning Systems for Health (ASfH) ...framework.
Study Setting
Practice‐informed primary data (2017–2023) from the Holistic Opportunity Program for Everyone (HOPE) Initiative based in Charlotte, NC.
Study Design
The unit of analysis in this descriptive case study is inter‐organizational, specifically focusing on an academic‐public health relationship. We illustrate the partnership process across the ASfH four core areas, including key challenges and insights.
Data Collection
Utilized a Critical Moments Reflection methodology and review of HOPE program data.
Principal Findings
(1) Formal partnership structures and processes are essential to monitoring the four ASfH core components for on‐going system alignment. (2) Aligning systems for health principally involves two ecologies: (i) the health program and (ii) the partnership. The vitality and sustainability of both ecologies require continuous attention and resource investment. (3) Relationships rest at the heart of aligning systems. (4) With comparative advantages in research methods, the academic sector is especially poised to collaborate with healthcare systems and human service organizations to study, develop, implement, and scale evidence‐based health interventions.
Conclusions
The academic sector shares overlapping purposes with the public health, healthcare, and social services sectors while providing complementary value. It is a critical sectoral partner in advancing population health and health equity.
