Our aviation experience covers the state of Texas, with offices in Houston, Austin, Dallas and Fort Worth. The North Texas market continues to grow rapidly, with a huge portion of that growth coming in the transportation sector. Aviation forms a cornerstone in the transportation sector and can fuel economic and regional growth. Our team is now positioned to help expedite that growth forward with our clients.
With the decades-old gap in public funding, alternative methods to financing these capital projects are becoming a realistic option, whether in our cities or in other critical areas, like aviation. Fortunately, there are many models of alternative funding that complement the traditional publicly funded and financed methodology, utilizing private money to allow for the creation of new and expanded infrastructure.
UTILIZING ALTERNATIVE PROJECT DELIVERY
Alternative delivery methods, like design-build finance and privately financed partnerships, require alternative funding, which is typically provided via private financing. Private financing offers options for repayments that can be based on a negotiated return on investment (ROI), not operational fees or revenues. Any excess revenue is distributed back to the public entity that controls the facility rather than the private financier. These funds can then be used for other infrastructure projects, providing a multiplier effect on initial investment dollars and becoming a springboard for additional projects.
