Africa faces an infrastructure financing gap of over US $400 billion per year, according to the African Development Bank—more than four times its current public‑sector infrastructure spend and a gap that private capital and PPPs must help bridge. To unlock that capital and deliver sustainable projects at scale, governments are increasingly turning to public‑private partnerships—and to expert advisory support that can navigate complex deal structuring, risk allocation, and delivery oversight.
One of the earliest and most prominent examples in Nigeria is the Build‑Operate‑Transfer concession for Murtala Muhammed International Airport’s Terminal 2, awarded in 2013 to Bi‑Courtney Limited in partnership with FAAN. This 30‑year concession demonstrated both the promise and the complexity of PPPs: while private investors brought in equity to expand capacity and improve service levels, robust governance structures were essential to manage long‑term risk. Yet too many projects stall before financial close—often due to opaque procurement, misaligned incentives, or unrealistic timelines.
At Eclipse Advisory, we help decision‑makers move from stalled mandates to delivered assets. Our management consultants work with ministries and agencies to define clear objectives, map stakeholders, and establish governance models that stay resilient even through political transitions. For transaction advisory, our teams produce investment‑grade feasibility studies—covering technical, financial, legal, and environmental dimensions—and structure procurement to attract competitive bids, allocate risks appropriately, and embed performance‑based payments. And on the ground, our project management & implementation oversight embeds seasoned specialists to monitor progress, validate deliverables, and manage change control, ensuring that cost, schedule, and quality stay on target.
Across Africa, infrastructure agencies and finance ministries are under pressure to optimize every naira, rand or shilling. With Eclipse Advisory’s end‑to‑end support—from strategic planning and policy design to deal structuring and on‑the‑ground execution—you can turn ambitious PPP mandates into assets that drive growth, create jobs, and serve communities.
