Very simple concepts

Published 9 days ago • 1 min read

I see millions wasted as if they were a cleanexes or tissue or whatever.

For many stupid reasons.

Frustrating.

​

Millions from taxpayers.

Millions from shareholders and companies.

In stupid things.

​

These guys will save all this money and even more trouble and embarrassment by having tattooed on their brains a few concepts.

Basic concepts.

Around 100.

​

  1. When is a project too small for a PPP?
  2. What do equity sponsors look for in an RFQ?
  3. How many bidders should be shortlisted?
  4. What causes good teams to walk away?
  5. What evaluation criteria truly drive good outcomes?
  6. How much time is enough for an RFP period?
  7. Why do equity investors demand step-in rights?
  8. How should change mechanisms be structured?
  9. Can PPPs adapt to technological change?
  10. When do long-term investors enter the game?

​

Etc.

​

These 10 questions and many more can be found below.
