Public-Private Partnerships: Structuring, Procurement & Governance
A PPP is not free infrastructure — it is a thirty-year purchase on credit — the discipline is knowing exactly what is being bought, and at what true cost.

Governments turn to PPPs when budgets are short and needs are not — and the model works only when its discipline is respected. This programme teaches that discipline from the public side of the table: project selection and value-for-money analysis run honestly, fiscal commitments and contingent liabilities counted rather than hidden; risk allocation by the only rule that holds — to the party best able to manage each risk; procurement that attracts serious bidders and survives challenge; and the long half of the story most training ignores: contract management, renegotiations, and the governance that keeps a thirty-year deal serving the public it was signed for.

Programme agenda
Built for the decisions no textbook prepares you for
I.The decision to PPP
- When PPP fits — and the projects it quietly ruins
- Value for money tested without a thumb on the scale
- Fiscal commitments and contingent liabilities, counted
II.Structure and procurement
- Risk allocation: the matrix built from capability, not bargaining power
- Bankability: what lenders require and what it costs the public side
- The competitive process: dialogue, evaluation, defensible award
III.The thirty years after
- Contract management: performance regimes actually enforced
- Renegotiation: the inevitable request, handled from strength
- Hand-back and the asset the public actually receives
Frequently asked
Who are the operations, procurement and project programmes designed for?
They are built for practitioners who carry delivery accountability — procurement and supply chain professionals, project and programme managers, PMO teams and operations leaders. Cohorts are deliberately cross-industry: the disciplines of sourcing, tendering, project control and portfolio governance are the same craft whether the organisation is a bank, a utility or a manufacturer.
Are these certification-preparation courses?
No. BIZENIUS programmes are practice-led rather than exam-led: casework, live negotiations and control-cycle exercises built from real project and procurement situations. Participants leave with methods and templates they apply the following week, and a certificate of completion from BIZENIUS — we do not sell third-party exam preparation.
How do I secure a seat on an operations or projects programme?
Apply through the course page or request the brochure — a course advisor replies within one business day with dates, formats and fees. Programmes run in English and French, classroom and live virtual, and every course can be delivered in-house for a single team or transformation programme.
