Jefferies, M (2006) Critical success factors of public private sector partnerships: A case study of the sydney superdome. Engineering, Construction and Architectural Management, 13(5), pp. 451-462. ISSN 0969-9988
Abstract
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to examine perceptions of Build-Own-Operate Transfer (BOOT) schemes in order to develop a framework of critical success factors (CSF). Design/methodology/approach - Success factors are identified from relevant literature and a project specific CSF framework is produced with key issues discussed. Discussion focuses on a case study of a current Australian BOOT project, the Sydney SuperDome. Findings - The SuperDome is proving to be an example of how both government and private industry is attempting to meet Australia's need for infrastructure in the new millennium. The project had a streamline finance process and project participants had an appetite for risk that exceeded the other tenderers. PPPs are now established as a worldwide means of developing public services with private sector finance and expertise. Originality/value - The SuperDome model is setting the benchmark for Australian BOOT projects, acting as the framework for future PPPs initiated by the NSW Government.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
