Abstract
Despite the vast documentation of the PPP research in many countries, the PPP research in the context of Tanzania is lacking, let along the housing sector of Tanzania. To address this knowledge gap, the purpose of this paper is to identify the driving forces for adopting PPPs in Tanzanian housing projects. Second is to examine how driving forces differ between the public and private sector respondents. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 10 public and private sector practitioners to collect data and the interview transcripts were analysed using NVivo (version 10 package). Direct content analysis was used to validate the findings and provide in-depth insights into the findings. The results shows that out of the 19 driving forces identified,the top 3 driving forces for PPP adoption in Tanzania for the public sector respondents are ‘the need for redeveloping condemned properties’, ‘lack of enough financial capacity to undertake housing projects’ and ‘fear to lose their condemned properties’. In contrast, the top driving forces for the private sector are ‘prime location’ and ‘being a previous tenant’.
