Abstract
Purpose:
The research objectives were clearly defined to guide the literature search and selection process. The objectives were (1) to identify factors impacting efficient public-private partnerships (PPPs) infrastructure projects supply chains and (2) to develop strategies and insights for enhancing efficiency in PPPs infrastructure projects supply chains.
Design/methodology/approach:
To gain a comprehensive understanding of the strategies and insights for enhancing efficiency in PPP infrastructure projects supply chains, this study employed a comprehensive review of the recent literature to synthesize existing knowledge and identify gaps.
Findings:
Findings highlight the importance of leveraging technologies like artificial intelligence and data analytics to enhance supply chain visibility and efficiency. Additionally, adopting strategic approaches with clear goals and metrics is crucial for performance tracking and optimization. Implementing best practices in risk management and continual improvement further prevents and mitigates risks and issues and improves the probability of providing the right levels of quality. Findings of this study emphasize collaboration, innovation and a focus on best practices as critical success factors for optimizing operations and realizing the full potential of PPPs. The study concludes with recommendations to implement continuous improvement strategies and feedback mechanisms throughout the project lifecycle. Policymakers, project managers and supply chain professionals may gain practical insights, contributing to the advancement of supply chain efficiency in PPP projects and potentially enhancing industry competitiveness and sustainability. Therefore, this research serves as a crucial resource for stakeholders seeking to comprehend and navigate the complexities inherent in managing supply chains within the context of PPP infrastructure projects.
Originality/value:
The originality of this paper lies in its focus on optimizing efficiency within PPP infrastructure supply chains. By delving into strategies and insights, it offers actionable recommendations for policymakers, project managers and supply chain professionals. This research not only fills a gap in existing literature but also provides practical solutions to enhance performance and value delivery in public-private infrastructure initiatives. Its unique perspective and practical implications position it as a valuable contribution to the field, paving the way for improved practices and outcomes in the realm of infrastructure development.
