    Public/Private Partnership Options

    8:39 AM

    Bernalillo County is considering researching public-private partnerships as an option in its pursuit of a building facility that will consolidate its downtown offices and services. Two downtown buildings, Alvarado Square and the Galeria, have been evaluated and are also under consideration.

    A public–private partnership (PPP or P3) is a joint government and private business venture that is funded and operated through a partnership of government and one or more private sector companies.

    In the case of a P3 building or construction project, the project would generally be the construction and operation of a facility by the private business or businesses that a government agency would then lease or purchase.

    The advantages of such a project are: the risks of the project are shared, the public agency might not have to issue bonds or debt finance the project, and the overall construction is typically faster and less expensive than a public sector only project. 

    These partnerships have been used in many states and countries. In New Mexico, P3 is currently not allowed under the state procurement code. Unless the statute changes, the county may need to obtain home rule status or partner with the City of Albuquerque to undertake a P3. This would have to be evaluated along with other aspects of any proposed project.
