Course Summary
Due to ever-shrinking budgets and growing investment opportunities, many governments are now hiring outsourced companies to run their contracts. This creates extra job opportunities and increases the expertise within the individual industries.
However, there are always risks with PPP contract management and outsourcing from both sides. If managed well, they could open doors, solidify sound investments, and secure future contracts. However, not considering the risks, monetary issues, and procurement plans could have major implications for the market, the government, and the taxpayers.
When PPP contracts move to private-sector organisations, they intend to use their skills, knowledge, and expertise in outsourcing to maintain their success and grow a positive public reputation.
When taking over one of these complex contracts, it’s important to create a robust infrastructure, develop a risk management plan and assess your budgets and ongoing IT and resourcing requirements. Contract management of this calibre requires careful planning, accurate data, and forecasting models to predict future trends and make continuous improvements while maintaining stability.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the dynamics of running a PPP contract.
- Assess key risk areas and create mitigation methods.
- Plan your resources and budget requirements carefully.
- Develop process and project mapping tools to keep the move on track.
- Understand your budget and what’s required for it.
- Create a roadmap of key responsibilities and hold the right people accountable.
- Manage relationships between the public and private sectors.
- Focus on the development and improvement of management processes.
- Understand the complexities between public and private sector management.
- Create contingency plans to manage and recover from risk elements.
- Build procurement relationships to avoid a single point of failure.
This course is designed for anyone implementing an outsourced contract into a private sector organisation. It would be most beneficial for:
- Business Owners
- Project Managers

This course uses various adult learning methods to aid full understanding and comprehension. Participants will review real-world case studies on videos and presentations to understand the complexities behind contract outsourcing from the public to the private sector.
In groups, they will discuss key risk areas and be presented with the best tools to help them understand future risks and budget assessments. Together, they will assess a roadmap of change implementation and highlight key areas for further focus and place in resource management systems and budgeting tools to fully understand how contract management decisions are made and supported by clear data.
