9 9 July 2004 Expectations that we perceive Governments have on the investor/contractor  Fixed price, time certain. PPP is not a claim business  We are not just a builder any longer  In PPP construction is only one element out of several  We sell a service/solution – not a building or a road  We must understand the clients needs and objective  We take complete responsibility for cost, quantities and time with penalties should we fail to deliver  We must look at our work from a lifecycle perspective  We must develop our industry and design with Life Cycle Thinking Expectations

11 11 July 2004 What are the lessons learned in PPPs by Skanska?

12 12 July 2004 The perfect financing option There is NO ONE solution Project specific features are important You will be caught if you make a short-cut Optimize rather than maximize A robust structure is better than rocket science Approximately right rather than exactly wrong Lessons Learned

13 13 July 2004 Why BOT/PPP/PFI is a success Save money when looking at LCC Possible to realize earlier Easier procurement – international tender Faster execution Known maximum cost, no cost overruns Access to investments earlier will boost economy Off Balance sheet Alternative to conventional way Lessons Learned

14 14 July 2004 Keys Reasons for Failure Project not commercially viable if the state does not make it feasible for the investor “Value for money” Government abandons the Project Failure in the Consortium -Disagreement between parties -Changed priorities -Economy Public disapproval Mismatch in expectations between public and private sector Wrong risk allocation – right part to carry the risk. Don´t push all risk down excessively - not financiable Lessons Learned

17 17 July 2004 Opponent opinions on BOT/PPP- and comments thereon 1(2) Interest rates and equity returns more expensive than government bonds -But different risk distribution gives lower overall cost Only large contractors are big enough to compete for these projects -Very often these deals attract international contractors using local companies as subcontractors Costly and complex transaction -But with enough size and right structure good value for money Gives wrong priority of projects -It is the politicians not the private sector who decide priorities, irrespective of traditional or BOT/PPP procurement Commit our children -But is it wrong to spread the project cost over the economic life time of the facility being normally 20-40 years ? Obstacles

18 18 July 2004 Opponent opinions on BOT/PPP – and comments thereon 2(2) Our country cannot afford a new project -Casualties go down on motorways - political responsibility? -Pollution in congestions higher than traffic flow -Operational costs lower in modern buildings than old -Transport infrastructure stimulate regional development -Infrastructure development drives economic growth Testing new concepts will improve effectiveness of public as well as private sectors -Is it political responsibility to do nothing or not to try changes? Obstacles

19 19 July 2004 Value for Money (VfM) Assessment Value/ “price” Conventional Procurement PSC PFI Procurement Whole life cost of procuring services Cost of finance Risks retained by Public Sector VfM

20 20 July 2004 To conclude.... - BOT/PPP is like a marriage You flirt, fall in love and enter into contract Hopefully a long duration Quality of service depends on maintenance Objectivity and rational not always ruling There are good and bad times Recourse to lawyers in case of dispute
