Record 2 2014-01-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Organization Planning
  • Government Contracts
DEF

A co-operative venture for the provision of infrastructure or services, built on the expertise of each partner that best meets clearly defined public needs, through the most appropriate allocation of resources, risks, and rewards.

CONT

In a public-private partnership, the public sector maintains an oversight and quality assessment role while the private sector is more closely involved in actually delivering the service or project.

CONT

The term "public-private partnership" carries a specific meaning in the Canadian context. First, it relates to the provision of public services or public infrastructure. Second, it necessitates the transfer of risk between partners.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Planification d'organisation
  • Marchés publics
DEF

Entente contractuelle entre des partenaires public et privé qui stipule des résultats à atteindre pour améliorer une prestation de services publics.

CONT

Il y a partenariat public-privé (PPP) lorsque le secteur public fait appel au secteur privé dans le financement d'un service ou d'une infrastructure publics. Le rôle du privé peut varier : il peut concevoir, construire, gérer, exploiter, entretenir et être le propriétaire du service ou de l'infrastructure pendant un certain temps. [...] Ce qu'il y a de différent avec un PPP, c'est que le risque est partagé entre les partenaires et non limité au public (impartition) ou au privé (privatisation).

OBS

Cette entente établit un partage réel des responsabilités, des investissements, des risques et des bénéfices de manière à procurer des avantages mutuels qui favorisent l'atteinte des résultats.

OBS

[...] le composé «public-privé» reste au singulier même quand il est question de plusieurs partenariats. Pourquoi? Parce que les termes «public» et «privé» ne se rapportent pas à «partenariats», mais au mot «secteur» sous-entendu. Et, comme le fait remarquer le GDT [Grand Dictionnaire terminologique], cette ellipse est sentie.

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

P3 attached site ... is planned for ISS [International Space Station] logistics support. ... Interfaces are the same as the S3 sites.

CONT

The main truss segments-S0, P1, S1, P3, and S3-were designed as rigid hexagonal sections; a six-point structure is more rigid than one with four points. The hexagonal cross section also maximizes the volume that can be used to load equipment onto the truss. A square will not use the available volume as well as a hexagon. ... The truss segments are not regular hexagons; the sides are not equal in length. The segments are wider than they are tall to further exploit the Shuttle payload bay area ... The hexagonal truss segments also contain a robotic manipulator arm that travels along two longerons on one plane of the hexagonal truss. The 55 ft (17 m) long robotic arm being built by the Canadian Space Agency will be launched with the S0 segment and will travel the length of the truss.

OBS
