Abstract

Titre original : « Exploitation déléguée : les ouvrages reviennent, la capacité ne revient pas » (texte en français). Le droit français est généreux avec le propriétaire public : les ouvrages nécessaires au service lui appartiennent dès leur construction, même si le contrat n'en dit rien. Un bon contrat de concession va plus loin et garantit leur état au moment de la remise. Mais ni la loi ni le contrat ne rendent ce qui permet de s'en servir. La capacité d'exploiter n'est ni inventoriée, ni valorisée, ni exigée. Elle part avec le sortant, et il faut la racheter. English summary: In French law, the works needed for a delegated public service belong to the public owner from the moment they are built, and a good concession contract also guarantees their condition at handover. Neither the law nor the contract, however, returns the capability to operate them. That operating capability is neither inventoried, nor valued, nor required; it leaves with the outgoing operator and has to be bought back. The study draws on case law, concession contracts and ISO 55001:2024 to show where this transfer cost sits in public service delegation.
