Private sector offers a solution for delivering what the MDA wants – it defines HOW the MDA will get what it wants

What the MDA wants

This is usually called the “output specification”

How the private sector delivers

Uses its collective skills to create the most effective and efficient solution◦ Design◦ Build◦ Maintain◦ Operate◦ Finance

This isn’t free

The private sector will estimate these amounts over the contract life and calculate the regular payment that they need to receive◦ Users◦ Government◦ Both

Nor is this risk-free

The private sector faces risks:◦ Availability (design, build, maintenance)◦ Performance (maintenance, operation)◦ Costs

The public sector faces risks:◦ Political◦ Management◦ Fiscal

How are risks managed The private sector:
