    Public Private Partnership System Initiation Challenges for the Procurement of Public Infrastructure
    (Covenant Journal of Research in the Built Environment, 2024) Ojelabi, Rapheal; Oyenubi, Adebayo; Afolabi, Baruwa
    This study investigates the severity of the challenges associated with the Public-Private Partnership system initiation phase in the procurement of public infrastructure. Also, strategies for managing the barriers associated with the procurement system were evaluated. The study adopted a quantitative research method, conducting a questionnaire survey targeted at selected PPP stakeholders, which includes Architects, Builders, Structural engineers, estate managers, and Quantity surveyors in Lagos and Abuja. The stakeholders were elicited from selected 19 PPP projects using a project-based approach. The data generated were analysed with SPSS 21 using descriptive and inferential tools. Findings from the study revealed the most severe factors associated with PPP procurement system failure to deliver public infrastructure at the inception phase, including a lack of PPP development fund to promote PPP, corruption among the political class, and investors' perception of the country as high-risk for investment. Likewise, strategies considered significant to managing the PPP initiation barriers were unveiled including establishing policies to facilitate PPP at the inception phase, improving transparency in information sharing and providing guarantee legal framework to protect investors. The findings will grant PPP stakeholders insights to the issues responsible for the termination of PPP project collaboration at initiation phase of the procurement system. Also, the unveiling of the PPP challenges and mitigating strategies at the inception phase could guide stakeholders in developing a framework to a successful PPP implementation in a bid to encouraging more participation at this level.

    Government’s motives and investor’s commitment in public-private partnership procurement system adoption
    (Sciendo, 2025) Amusan, Lekan; Ojelabi, Rapheal Abiodun; Adewolu, Adeoye Olugbenga; Olanipekun, Oladeji Olubunmi
    The study examined the government’s motives - ment to infrastructure delivery. The study adopted a quan titative research method with a survey conducted using a structured questionnaire targeted at 384 respondents selected through random sampling. The data were ana lysed using mean, percentile and Pearson correlation sta tistical tools. The study identified 17 key motives respon sible for the government adopting PPP in socio-economic infrastructure delivery. These motives were factored into three main groups: public infrastructure maintenance, financial and economic benefits; improved discipline in the contractual relationship and predictable path in infra structure delivery and integration of innovative approach in enhancing infrastructure delivery. Therefore, the relationships between the three factored government’s motives and investor’s commitments, including finance, management, technical and operational services in PPP, were tested using the Pearson correlation statistical tool. The results showed that the motive for public infrastructure maintenance, financial and economic benefits of the government in PPP showed a significant relationship with the four services commitment of private partners. Also, the government’s motive for improved discipline in the contractual relationship and predictable path in infrastructure delivery showed significant relationships with technical, finance and management commit ments of investors. Lastly, the government’s motive for the integration of innovative approaches in enhancing infrastructure delivery showed a significant relationship with only technical commitment. The outcome indicates that factors measuring government motive and investor's services commitment are mutually dependent and critical in ensuring a sustained relationship among stakeholders in a PPP arrangement for infrastructure procurement.
