Strategic Plan, PPP Model, and Privatization Roadmap for a Large Public Sector Construction Company in a Middle Eastern Country
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE
A major public sector construction company in the Middle East sought to enhance its operational efficiency, reduce government involvement, and attract private sector investment. The organization required a comprehensive restructuring strategy, a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model, and a privatization roadmap to transition towards a sustainable business model. The primary objective was to assess the company’s operations and asset portfolio, develop a five-year strategic plan, redefine organizational structure, and establish an execution framework for privatization and performance optimization.
PROJECT APPROACH
The approach followed a multi-phase execution strategy, beginning with a detailed diagnosis of company activities, assets, and financial performance. A new organizational structure and service/product focus were designed to align with industry best practices. The team then developed a five-year vision, mission, and growth strategy, integrating investment planning and privatization objectives. Additionally, a performance management system and restructuring plan were created to enhance governance and operational efficiency. The final phase involved defining the PPP model and setting up a restructuring office to facilitate the privatization transition and drive implementation.
OUR METHODOLOGY
A combination of analytical frameworks and strategic tools was utilized to drive transformation. The Organization Review and Analysis Framework was applied to assess existing operations and identify areas for optimization. Internal and external benchmarking provided insights into industry trends and best practices. Financial scenario modeling and investor attraction strategies were developed to identify viable funding mechanisms and attract private sector partners. A structured implementation planning methodology was introduced to ensure effective execution and monitoring of the privatization roadmap.
THE RESULTS
The project successfully delivered a comprehensive company and asset valuation assessment, which formed the basis of a five-year strategy map and strategic objectives. The PPP model and privatization roadmap were presented and approved by key government stakeholders, paving the way for private sector involvement. The company identified and initiated discussions with several potential private sector partners, enhancing its investment attractiveness. Finally, a company restructuring office was established to oversee the implementation of the transformation plan, ensuring a structured transition toward privatization and improved performance.
