• Rewarded for managing life-cycle costs– Build quality at low cost, – Operate a well-maintained facility– Provide good customer service
• Business deal must make sense, but successful relationship is essential

Concessions

or control of the facility to the lease holder
– Rights return to owner at end of term

Looking Ahead

• Direct your program– Communicate your objectives– Know the value of your assets– Know the costs of your operations– Fair procurement– Time is money
• Each project is unique
• It’s not easy
