Although monitoring and evaluation are crucial components of most PPP policies, the performance of many PPP projects are self-defined by the advocating governments. The ineffectual evaluation of PPP projects would trigger a costly loss of competitive value and would lead to delivery of products or services below optimum quality. Using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) approach, this article evaluates the success of the PPP housing project in Abuja, Nigeria. The findings of the study indicate that the factors “favourable investment environment”, “efficient procurement process” and “appropriate risk allocation” have significant influence on the success of the PPP housing project in Abuja, Nigeria. The findings should assist PPP stakeholders to improve their understanding of the factors that influence the success of PPP housing projects in Nigeria.
