Public Private Partnerships (PPP) / Private Finance Initiatives (PFI)

Introduction

The MOD Private Finance Unit (PFU) has overall responsibility for Public Private Partnerships (PPP) and Private Finance Initiatives (PFI) and provides a central MOD focus for policy and support.

What are the Quality requirements for PPP / PFI ?

From a quality perspective, PPP / PFI contracts should be treated the same as any other type of contract.

All PPP / PFI bids will however need careful consideration, and DQA Policy should be consulted where:

  • advice is required on the application of current quality related policies
  • a quality related policy is considered inadequate and/or inappropriate.

Is further help available ?

For specific PPP / PFI policy, guidance and information seek assistance from the PFU.

See the PPP area of the Commercial Toolkit or the PFI area of the Commercial Toolkit on the AOF.

For further assistance on quality related issues, contact DQA Policy. See Getting Help.
