P3s can help bridge the infrastructure gap by using private capital to finance large infrastructure projects and leveraging funding payments over the useful life of the new facilities. P3 isn\u2019t the solution for all public infrastructure needs, but it\u2019s a growing and important tool for public agencies to utilize for appropriate projects.<\/p>\n<p>P3 typically involves a long-term partnership between the public entity owner and a private developer (known as a concessionaire) for the concessionaire\u2019s design, build, financing, operation, and maintenance of a substantial public improvement work. Usually a P3 project is built on public land and involves the construction and operation of public infrastructure by the concessionaire with a projected revenue stream that\u2019s used to help secure and repay the project costs over time.<\/p>\n<p>There are some significant differences between traditional public works projects and P3 projects:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Project financing<\/strong>. A traditional, large public works project usually involves some form of public bond financing, often supplemented by federal grant money, to raise the funds necessary to pay the design and construction costs. In a P3 project, the concessionaire typically obtains all or most of the financing and is paid either directly from the project\u2019s revenue stream once construction is completed and operating, or by the public owner via milestone and other \u201cavailability\u201d payments spread over time.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Management of the project\u2019s responsibilities and risks<\/strong>. By forcing the coordination of the new facility\u2019s design and construction with the consideration (and risks) of its long-term performance (via operations and maintenance), the P3 project allows the public owner to ensure that both the construction period risks and long-term operations and maintenance risks for the facility are optimized, and transfers most of these risks to the concessionaire, who\u2019s in the best position to control them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>P3 projects require specific enabling legislation, such as California\u2019s Govt C \u00a7\u00a75956-5956.10 and Str &amp; H C \u00a7143. A significant amount of federal legislation is also being used for P3 federally financed transportation projects.<\/p>\n<p>By bundling the asset\u2019s design and construction with its long-term operation and maintenance from the outset of development, P3 represents an important evolution of the efficiencies realized in the design-build project delivery method. This, combined with P3\u2019s element of increasing budget leverage for public entities in the short term, has greatly increased public agencies\u2019 interest in P3 and promises to spark its use and growth in California and throughout the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about P3s in Public-Private Partnerships: Bridging California\u2019s Infrastructure Gap in the March 2015 issue of CEB\u2019s Real Property Law Reporter.
