Abstract:It is the key for PPP projects to get success that the public agency can control the private properly through the contract. The construction of control by the public agency to the private and its dimensions are proposed based on the theory of self-enforcing contractual arrangement and relevant literature review. A preliminary scale for the construct is presented on the basis of the results of previous qualitative research. Then it is validated using structural equation modeling, resulting in a scale including 29 items in 3 dimensions, i.e. output control, behaviour control and deviation control. Because the scale is established and tested based on the material and data from Chinese market of PPP, it can only be applyed to PPP projects in China. Three suggestions are offered to the public agency: (1) more attention should be paid to the control of the result than the process| (2) the major behavior control should achieve the private ‘self-control’ through more mechanism design| (3) the emphasis of deviation control should be changed to the liability for breach contract and remedy measures.
