Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) have become a critical approach for delivering infrastructure projects across the globe, particularly in the construction industry. However, the successful execution of PPP projects requires effective decision-making at various stages, from planning through to operation. One of the challenges faced by decision-makers is the prioritization of these stages, which is often subjective and leads to delays, cost overruns, and misalignment with stakeholder interests. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been increasingly applied to address this issue by providing a structured and systematic framework for decision-making. This paper reviews the application of AHP in PPP construction management, exploring its use in evaluating and prioritizing project stages, and examines the benefits and limitations of this approach. The paper synthesizes findings from various studies on PPP frameworks, challenges in project management, and the application of AHP, highlighting key insights for improving PPP project outcomes. Finally, the paper identifies gaps in the current literature and proposes areas for future research.
