The reality PPPIts size within the Organization
MRG has in recent years devoted particular attention to Public Private Partnerships for the municipal level.
In this way, there has been allowing to Local Authorities a solution for achieving the objectives that guided the launch of the contest, based on the utilization of capacity and expertise of the private sector, combined with the virtues of the public sector with a view to providing infrastructure.
Local Authority signs with the private partner, together with the partnership agreement, a shareholders agreement which establishes the rules and principles that govern relations between the parties within the limited company and their respective responsibilities with regard to technical cooperation and financial.
The agreement of technical and financial cooperation is essential because it establishes the rules for the allocation of project risks between the Local Authority and the private partner.

Accordingly, we propose a model based on respect for principles of Eurostat for public-private partnerships, with the private partner assuming the risks of construction and the provision of equipment and infrastructure of local interest.
It is up to the private partner to negotiate with financial institutions and conditions to obtain necessary financing to develop the project, ensuring quality and performance of technical building equipment, its maintenance and conservation with a view to their effective deployment to the local council. Examples of these partnerships are those performed with the following Local Authorities:
- Campo Maior
- Mafra
- Trancoso
- Odivelas
- Alcobaça
- Armamar
- Oeiras
