Public-private partnershipsAlign the vision
Align the vision
and the resources.
Every partner brings a different set of needs. The development structure should reflect them.
P3 evaluates project goals, facility requirements, site conditions, and capital considerations together. That integrated view helps partners understand their options and move toward a coordinated delivery plan.
CHASM Architecture has collaborated with P3 as architect of record since 2017, supporting an integrated approach to design and project delivery.

What should a prospective partner bring?
Share the location, the facility or development need, the intended users, and any available site information. These details provide a useful starting point for discussion.
Does every project use the same financing structure?
No. Capital and delivery structures depend on the project, partner, site, and applicable approvals. P3 discusses the options in the context of the specific opportunity.
How can local firms participate?
Contact the P3 team with your company information, capabilities, and the project or region of interest.
How the partnership works
One coordinated development program.
01 · DEFINE
Understand the need.
Review the site, intended users, space requirements, institutional priorities, and procurement path. Establish a program with the partner before advancing design and capital planning.
02 · DEVELOP
Connect the specialists.
Bring architecture, engineering, legal services, construction, and financing into a coordinated plan. P3’s published model includes investment in predevelopment services, with reimbursement at financial closing.
03 · EMPOWER
Build community capacity.
Create opportunities for local contractors, suppliers, and vendors to participate in delivery. Align the facility’s purpose with the people it serves and the partner’s long-term responsibilities.
Capital structures shaped around the project
P3’s published approach includes tax-exempt lease-purchase agreements supported by revenue bonds, certificates of participation, or private placements. Sale-leaseback and lease-leaseback structures can also address institutional real estate and existing financing. The applicable structure depends on the specific partner, project, approvals, and transaction terms.
K–12 education
Address crowded classrooms, deferred maintenance, and changing facility needs through coordinated development. The academy in Harrisburg illustrates a dedicated early learning program.

P3 coordinates the development team. Architects, engineers, contractors, legal advisers, and capital providers perform their separately defined roles. Financing, procurement, scope, schedule, and risk allocation depend on the agreed documents and required approvals; no general funding or delivery guarantee applies to every opportunity.
