Abstract

Recent studies indicate that decision-making processes regarding public–private partnerships (hereafter PPPs) in service networks need further development from both practical and academic standpoints because of the variable outcomes of completed projects (see e.g. Royer and Simmons 2009; Vilko, 2012). In the public sector, labor-intensive functions have the most likely been externalized, because there has been considerable variation in their utilization (Rothery and Robertson 1995).
