In the recent ‘15thAcademic Conference for Postgraduate Students in Construction Management and Real Estate, our research student,Mr. Robert Osei Kyei gave a very wonderful presentation on ‘Developing a Project Success Index (PSI) for Public-Private Partnership (PPP) projects in Developing Countries: A Fuzzy Synthetic Evaluation Approach’. No wonder Robert was awarded the two prizes ‘The Best Presentation/Paper Award’ and ‘The Best Presenter Award(Voted by Audience)’.

Organized by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University CIB Student Chapter, the Conference aimed to provide an ideal platform for research students of different universities to share their studies in the area of Construction, Civil Engineering and Real Estate.Robert’s comprehensive presentation received a round of very appreciative applause from the judges and the audience.

Under the supervision of Prof. Albert Chan, Robert’s paper is to develop a pragmatic model for quantifying the success of public-private partnership projects in developing countries using fuzzy set theory. The model consists of three critical success criteria groupings for PPP projects in developing countries.These include local development and disputes reduction,profit,cost and technical specifications. Practitioners in developing countries can use the success index equation to determine the success levels of their projects in a more practical and objective manner.In addition, the success of two or more PPP projects can be compared on the same basis for bench marking purposes.
