Abstract
International interest in privatizing public works activities has been stimulated by a growing appreciation of the significant savings that can be made through improved operational efficiency. However, in developing countries the main difficulty is the lack of a resourceful and experienced private sector which can be readily mobilized to meet the new market opportunities. There is also a need to transform the local public sector monopoly supplier into a commissioning and regulatory authority. This paper offers a model for the change process based on a recent support project associated with privatizing road construction and maintenance in Lesotho.
