The cutting edge of this public-private initiative is the distinguished membership of the Council. Its growing list of public and private sector members, with unparalleled experience in a wide variety of public-private partnership arrangements, represents an essential resource for developing the use of the private sector in service to the public. Across the country and around the globe, governments are being challenged to operate more efficiently and cost-effectively, and are turning to an accepted tool for serving public needs. In addition to the resources available to its members, the Council has access to expert consultants providing accurate, timely information to the general public. It advocates partnering, where appropriate, at the federal, state and local levels through formal and informal presentations.
Partnerships leverage the strengths of both the public and private sectors.
Partnerships have been activated successfully at all levels of government.
