Many PFI Contracts and similar long term public private partnerships (PPPs) are approaching the end of their contractual life, which will pose a number of challenges for those authorities to whom the assets will revert, especially where project management resources and PFI expertise are in short supply. The National Audit Office has recently highlighted the risks to value for money and continuity of service if assets are not returned in a satisfactory condition.

In this webinar, Browne Jacobson and Agilia look at the key issues and best practice, which every affected authority needs to know to assist them in the management of this challenge and the development of a strategy for preservation or replacement of assets and the re-procurement of key services.

In this webinar we talk through the following:

Developing successful exit strategies
Managing the contract expiry process
Key legal issues:

Handback condition
Surveys
Asset, data and staff transfer

Successor arrangements

We address the particular challenges faced in the handback of accommodation to public sector ownership and management (including the impact upon Academies of the end of local authority school projects), as well as specific challenges posed in areas such as waste and housing.

Your experienced panel of speakers are:

Andy Rose - senior advisor at Agilia
Amar Qureshi - CEO and co-owner at Agilia
Mike Mousdale - partner at Browne Jacobson
