Abstract
Objective: The paper aims to determine why the government resorts to partnerships with the private sector, in addition to the advantages and disadvantages of the public-private partnership system, and explain the types and forms of public-private partnerships. Theoretical Framework: This paper presented the concept of partnership and the reasons for partnership with the private sector. It also presented the types of partnerships with the private sector and, more specifically, the different BOT systems. Method: The study relied mainly on the descriptive approach to understand the concept of partnership, determine the forms of partnership between the public and private sectors, and the types of partnership with the BOT system. The study also relied on the analytical approach in analyzing the advantages of the partnership system between the public and private sectors and identifying the defects and challenges facing the partnership systems between the public and private sectors. Results and Discussion: The partnership between the government and the private sector is not a path strewn with roses. Many challenges must be faced, and for the partnership to work as desired, the conditions and components discussed in this research must be met, which are factors in themselves. Research Implications: This paper examines the role of public-private partnerships in enhancing the performance of public utilities and reducing the cost of providing services.
