Economic feasibility analysis is the main point of departure for cost management procedures in infrastructure investment projects. Different organizational models according to which the public infrastructure can be procured can generate various costs for both the public and private sectors. From this perspective, the TA Europe focuses on the analysis and management of both financial and economic costs. The financial costs consider the possible CAPEX, OPEX and repayment spectrum, which can vary based on the organizational model. In this case, the TA Europe considers possible models, which are applicable for relevant country and sector, considers different financial opportunities (e.g. project finance, forfeiting, etc.), conducts simulation analysis and identifies the ones which can generate the highest investment returns. At the same time, in order to balance the interests of public and private partners, the TA Europe considers the economic costs and returns in the relevant analysis. The economic analysis mostly refers to the social costs and benefits generated from the infrastructure investment projects (e.g. travel time, vehicle operating costs, accidents, etc.).
