The Sindh government has approved the conversion of its Public-Private Partnership (PPP) Unit into a private limited company, a move aimed at attracting greater private investment and accelerating the completion of development projects across the province.
The decision was taken during a meeting of the PPP Unit chaired by Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah on Wednesday.
Speaking during the meeting, the chief minister said the reorganization would establish a more autonomous, investment-oriented public-private partnership framework.
He said the new company would strengthen policymaking, project planning, implementation, and enforcement while reducing administrative bottlenecks that often delay development projects.
According to Murad Ali Shah, the new structure is expected to improve the government’s ability to attract investors and deliver infrastructure and public sector projects more efficiently.
The chief minister said the reorganized company will provide provincial departments with timely technical, financial, and legal support throughout the project lifecycle.
He added that the company will operate under a governance framework focused on transparency, accountability, performance monitoring, and legal compliance.
Murad Ali Shah also announced that PPP units within provincial departments will become more active under the new arrangement.
Eligible officers will be granted greater administrative authority to speed up project approvals and implementation while maintaining accountability and oversight.
Officials briefing the meeting said Sindh’s Public-Private Partnership programme has emerged as one of Pakistan’s most successful models for infrastructure and development financing.
The provincial government believes the latest reforms will further improve project execution, enhance institutional performance, and strengthen investor confidence in Sindh’s public-private partnership framework.
