“…Numerous studies have been conducted on PPPs in developing countries. However, these studies, particularly from the African perspective, have largely focused on the identification of critical success factors (CSFs) and challenges or barriers to the implementation process (Osei-Kyei and Chan 2015); the identification of PPP risks (Ibrahim et al 2006); and the reasons for the slow adoption of PPPs (Otairu et al 2014). Some of the Tanzanian-specific studies have been very limited, focusing on investigating PPP challenges in Tanzanian municipalities (Ngowi 2006); on the successes and constraints of improving PPPs in health services delivery in Tanzania (Itika et al 2011); and on the factors affecting joint venture (JV) formation (Minja et al 2012).…”

The study investigates the critical barriers restraining private investors from participating in the PPP construction project bidding process. Hence, three key potential inhibiting factors, which include political constraints, public sector poor PPP capacity, and undefined project scope, were investigated. Therefore, the study adopted a quantitative research technique through a questionnaire survey to obtain data from 384 PPP practitioners sample representative in Lagos and Abuja, Nigeria. The survey recorded 274 responses, and SmartPLS (v.3.2.3) was used for the data analysis. The study developed a conceptual model to formulate hypotheses which were validated with Smart PLS3. Findings from the study indicated that the three key factors have a significant effect on the private investor's decision not to participate in the PPP bidding process. The findings from this study can help the government understand how to attract investors under her PPP arrangement. The study is unique based on the research idea and approach.

“…The growth of economies greatly depends on the accessibility of infrastructure and services. The PPPs have thus, for two decades, helped the nations to improve infrastructure for achievement of economic goals (Otairua et al, 2013). However, expanding population density and aging infrastructure are straining the growth.…”

“…Adoption of PPPs has been slow as many leaders bring about reasons for hesitating to participate as facilities totally wear out (Rocca, 2017). Though there is correlation between good infrastructure and growth of economies, developing countries are yet to attain ample infrastructure growth (Otairua et al, 2013). In US, the market for PPPs is gaining root as Republicans and Democrats have passed several supportive legislation.…”

Globally, economies are increasingly facing difficulties in revamping their infrastructure. This has thus necessitated the involvement of public private partnerships (PPPs) for the last two decade. PPPs are contracts between government and private entities to finance, build and operate some elements of a public facility. The purpose of this study was to establish the influence of M & E systems on the performance of public private partnership projects in Nairobi City County, Kenya. Specific study objectives were: to determine the availability of M&E systems, to assess the staff competence in the implementation of the M&E, to evaluate the use of Logical Framework Matrix and to assess the frequency of M&E report use which influence performance of PPPs projects in Nairobi County, Kenya. Theory of change and performance theory guided the study. Survey research design was employed. Questionnaires and interview schedules were administered in the collection of data. A population of 161 project staff in 26 projects were targeted. The study also involved 10 county government officials. Stratified sampling, simple random and purposive sampling designs were applied to select 125 respondents for the study sample. Qualitative and quantitative data was collected and analysed numerically. The analysis of data was done through Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 20. Inferential and descriptive statistical measures were calculated and interpreted. Descriptive statistics such as frequencies, mean, standard deviations and percentages were computed and then presented using frequency tables, cross tabulations and in bar graphs. Inferential statistics such as correlation coefficient and multiple linear regression were calculated as measures of linear relationships between variables. Chi square which is a measure of independence of variables was also computed to establish the relationship between variances in samples. Cramer’s V was also calculated to establish the strength of the relationships found through chi square tests. To analyze qualitative data, a more interpretive content analysis will be employed which will involve coding and classifying data with the aim of highlighting important responses. The codes were then transformed into numeric values to be analyzed numerically. The study found out that most of the staff in the PPP do not have formal training in project management and M&E. Since they had stayed for long in their positions at work, they tended to be competent. Most of them could even design complex M&E matrix and apply it. Most of the projects have functional M&E systems but the largest proportion is not well equipped to function appropriately. Many PPPs do not always disseminate the M&E reports thus making the staff unaware of what may require more attention and changes to facilitate performance. Most of the reports are also never deliberated upon. This shows that most of the decisions made are not based on what has been found to be working in the management of the PPPs. This has negatively influenced performance. Though Logframe matrix is an important planning tool, it is not in use to plan and to monitor and evaluate the PPPs in Nairobi County. It is thus recommended that staff should be trained and deployed to work in areas of their expertise. They should also be subjected to regular refresher courses for important technological updates. All project M&E reports should be made known to all staff since when disseminated and deliberated on, these reports become useful learning and working tools.
