1 Global Infrastructure Major Sporting Events Global Credentials KPMG INTERNATIONAL

2 Wherever they may be, cities and countries that host major international sporting events make substantial financial commitments to capital projects that must be planned, financed, and completed within a specified and immovable timeframe. Hosting global sporting events is often a catalyst for major infrastructure and urban re-development that can go well beyond the sports facilities. Such additional infrastructure projects may include improvements to highways, urban transportation systems (e.g. light rail and inter-city rail lines) and airports, as well as commercial construction such as hotels and upgrades in technology and telecommunications systems. Financing major sporting events and their related infrastructure is a highly capital intensive effort that can often exceed municipal and government budgets. As a result, many of these types of projects involve public-private financing initiatives that reallocate some of the financing costs and project management responsibilities to help ensure that the host country can manage the overall scope of the project.

3 Meeting the Challenge Staging major sporting events is no small feat and requires planning and execution to take place within the context of rigid demands that include: No elasticity on the time frame for events the dates are immoveable. All construction projects must be completed prior to the events sport facilities and venues, athletes village, and all infrastructure and ancillary projects such as new hotels. All aspects of the planning, staging, and hosting of the events are an international media event any mistakes on the part of the host city/nation will be seen and judged both globally and instantaneously. These factors mean that governance, transparency, and process controls all become increasingly important during the planning and staging of major sporting events. Additional challenges may also come from complex interdependencies as exponential growth occurs in: The complexity of the multiple interdependent projects, including refinement of designs, requirements, costs and changes in project priorities; The number of stakeholders involved in making decisions, managing risk, and creating deliverables; and Tracking revenue and venue progress, including dependencies between venues and infrastructure projects and/or venue projects and events operations. Planning Interdependencies Infrastructure Increased Complexity Sport Venue Construction Events Operations Typical Issues Construction and operations cost and/or schedule overruns; Multiple sub-projects that lack consistency in project management and reporting; Multiple layers of risk arising from: Unclear or competing stakeholder interests; Pressures on costs due to unclear specifications, scope changes, sub-optimal procurement processes, inflation; Design/construction issues, including interfaces between sports venue and infrastructure projects; and Delays in obtaining approvals or decisions.
