The Issue • Changing role of airports • No longer just providers of aviation facilities • Regional impacts • Global increase in airport development • Many modes of privatisation used to achieve many different things Airport Metropolis Project QUT, TUDelft, UNC
PrivatisationWhat is it? How is it? What does it do? • Any divestment of authority or ownership by government • Manifests in different modes • GOCs, BOTs, JVs, etc. • Quick fix? Strategic need? • Manages risk and other strategic goals Airport Metropolis Project QUT, TUDelft, UNC
Airport Operation and Administration • Many different goals for airports • Privatisation used to achieve these goals BUT • Different modes suited to different prime agendas for operators and administrators • Operations vs project vs strategic • Stevens 2007, Carney and Mew 2003, Graham 2003 Airport Metropolis Project QUT, TUDelft, UNC
Governance • A deeper look at privatisation • Who is accountable • To who? How? When? • What rules of the game favour different privatisation modes? • Hierarchy? Market? Network? • Keast, Mandell & Brown 2006 Airport Metropolis Project QUT, TUDelft, UNC
