ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
As a Doctoral Candidate of the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Stuttgart
(Germany) enrolled in the International Doctoral Program Environment Water
(ENWAT) and the person authoring this dissertation, I wish to express my grateful
thanks to Prof. Rott (University of Stuttgart) for his guidance and assistance during
the research. Prof. Vermeer (University of Stuttgart) helped the research get started.
Very special thanks are due to Prof. Marx (University of Stuttgart) and Prof.
Bárdossy (University of Stuttgart): their explanations on how to model using
composite programming have been most useful. Prof. David Stephenson (University
of Botswana) for his invaluable inputs. Particular support has been granted by Dr.
Sabine Manthey (ENWAT Course Director) and Mrs. Andrea Bange (ENWAT
Secretary). Most ENWAT teaching staff and colleagues also collaborated in one way
or the other.
Mrs. Maria José Novo (SMSBVC) facilitated access to knowledge on the municipally
owned water utility of Viana do Castelo (Portugal). Special thanks to Miss Inês
Saavedra (Engineer at ADML) for her enthusiastic support. Mrs. Carmen Pinheiro
greatly contributed to this work by researching the Portuguese water sector on the
press.
Mr. Armandino Silva (Engineer at Electra/AdP International) had a key contribution
through contacts, comments and suggestions about the privatization of the water
sector in Cape Verde. The support from Dr. Faísca (Director at Electra), who
generously answered my queries, must be acknowledged.
Miss Catarina Fonseca (IRC) and Dr. Richard Franceys (Cranfield University) for
clarification on my research.
Special thanks are due to my colleagues and managers at McKinsey & Company for
their encouragement and hard work.
Finally, thank you to my husband Anselm and my daughter Noemi who are my true
inspiration. This research would have not been possible without their love, kindness
and patience.

IIABSTRACT
This research’s message is simple: Governments can turn to the private sector for
help in developing and delivering water and sanitation services. Different
approaches can be adapted to varying degrees and, when well designed, these
arrangements can bring improvements in the quality, availability, and cost‐
effectiveness of services. These principles apply across time and geography. This
research explains the core principles, and demonstrates the practical way to select an
option for private sector participation.
The knowledge based decision support system (KB‐DSS) is designed for utility
managers to use as they begin to look for a private partner. The model will point out
which kind of private sector alternative best meets their objectives. It will help them
make the critical decision about which type of private sector arrangement to pursue.
The model is original and can be used in industrialized countries as well as in
developing countries.
This report provides an overview of today’s water problems around the world,
develops a picture of the international water sector structure and explores the
challenges to the public and private sectors. It then describes in detail the impact of
private sector participation in all the continents of the world, provides the
development of the KB‐DSS step‐by‐step and applies the model to the special cases
of a Western European country (Portugal) and an African archipelago (Cape Verde).

IVZUSAMMENFASUNG
ABSTRACT
Die Botschaft dieser der vorliegenden Arbeit ist einfach: Regierungen können sich an
die Privatwirtschaft wenden, um Hilfe bei der Entwicklung und Bereitstellung von
Wasser‐ und Abwasserdiensten in Anspruch zu nehmen. Verschiedene
Vorgehensweisen können in variablen Stufen angewendet werden und diese
Regelungen können Verbesserungen bezüglich Qualität, Verfügbarkeit und
Kosteneffizienz der Dienste bringen, sofern sie gut ausgearbeitet sind. Diese
Prinzipien sind sowohl im Bezug auf Zeit als auch auf die geographische Lage gültig.
Diese Arbeit erläutert die wesentlichen Prinzipien and zeigt einen gangbaren Weg
zur Auswahl einer Alternative für private sector participation auf.
