What is a PPP?

  • A Public Private Partnership is a form of contractual arrangement between Government and the private sector which harnesses the skills and capability of the private sector in designing, constructing, operating, maintaining and financing major infrastructure projects.

    One of the key characteristics of a Public Private Partnership is that the Government maintains control of the infrastructure by monitoring the performance of the private sector. The Government makes payments based on a performance regime and if necessary, can 'step-in' to ensure services are delivered. A Public Private Partnership brings new incentives to the private sector to deliver infrastructure as payments do not commence until the facilities are ready for operation.

The new EPIcentre will include a number of conference, seminar, and business development spaces throughout the precinct. When not in use for Southbank Institute classes and events, these spaces will be available for commercial and community use.

This will generate additional revenue streams and foster further links between the Institute, employer groups, industry, and the community.
