By mid-2007 the UK National Audit Office (NAO) had published over 60 reports on public-private partnerships (PPPs) designed to identify good practice, improve understanding, and achieve better outcomes. This chapter discusses the relevance of three of our most recent reports to the evaluation of PPPs. The first report deals with a matrix approach to value for money assessment over the life cycle of PPP projects (see NAO, 2006). The other two reports, which focus on the tendering process and on benchmarking and market testing of service components, provide tangible examples using the matrix approach.
