Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions uses the Public-Private Partnership (PPP/P3) funding model (similar to what is commonly referred to as “privatization”) to assist educational institutions whose financial resources may have been depleted due to decreased state funding or endowments but whose campus capital plans have not changed. In order for schools, colleges and universities to maintain a competitive edge in the marketplace, their campus facilities need to meet the demands of the modern student.  Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions understands this reality and can offer solutions. Through our proven PPP/P3 model, Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions is able to provide development, management and other real estate services to public and private institutions throughout the country. Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions is equipped to coordinate the funding, design, construction and management of a variety of campus facilities including, but not limited to:
- Student Housing
- Academic Buildings
- Administrative Buildings
- Health/Wellness Centers
- Research Facilities/Laboratory Space
- Athletic Complexes
- Parking Structures
- Street & Walkway Lighting Solutions
Taking a Long View of Campus Viability
At Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions, we believe in deferring to the expertise of academics and administrators when it comes to student and residence life. Our job is to find the solutions to funding and management problems by developing strategies that create long-term opportunities for schools, colleges and universities. We know that today’s students seek a higher caliber of on-campus amenities and that administrators always aim for facility expansion as well as cutting-edge property management in order to appeal to past, present and future classes. So we form mutually respectful partnerships, in which we honor our clients’ educational skills and residence life expertise while delivering our proficiency in developing and overseeing state-of-the-art campus real estate. The approach works well because all parties focus on their core strengths.
In times of economic crisis, colleges and universities feel the effects more acutely. Balfour Beatty Campus Solutions is here to support institutions whose plans are still in place in spite of a changing fiscal climate. We believe that:
- Campus master plans need not suffer due to global economic fluctuations.
- Colleges and universities benefit from the process efficiencies delivered by the Balfour Beatty family of companies.
- There is inherent value in any approach that allows public and/or non-profit institutions to align their interests with private entities.
