This study analyzes the competitive aspects of public-private partnerships (PPPs) under Unsolicited Proposals (USPs). USPs differ from regular PPP arrangements from the moment that projects are proposed from scratch by private entities. We rely on a mixed-method approach. First, we work on a database of 57 USPs and then develop two case studies from sanitation and highway sectors. After identifying minimal competitive levels, the analysis explores some policy reasons behind that outcome, such as lacking information and the discretionary misuse of auction design, particularly at the subnational government level.

公私合作伙伴关系市场的竞争表现。秘鲁主动提案案例


本研究分析了主动提案（USP）下公私合作伙伴关系（PPP）的竞争方面。从私人实体从头开始提出项目的那一刻起，USP 就不同于常规的 PPP 安排。我们依靠混合方法。首先，我们建立了 57 个 USP 的数据库，然后开发了卫生和公路部门的两个案例研究。在确定最低竞争水平后，分析探讨了这一结果背后的一些政策原因，例如缺乏信息和随意滥用拍卖设计，特别是在地方政府层面。
