Public goods and services administration represents an important tool supporting functioning of the state. Provision of public goods and services is closely related to the necessity to ensure relevant sources and setting the appropriate distribution channels, what in fact means, finding the suitable provider. Production of public goods can be provided by both sectors, private or public. If a public entity produces a public good, it is possible to talk about in-house production. In the opposite situation, when external private entity produces a public good, it is possible to talk about out-house production. This contribution is focused on the issue of Public Private Partnership (PPP) projects as one of the out-house production variants. The aim of the contribution is to compare the availability and complexity of information about the given projects for potential contractors in the Czech Republic and Slovak Republic (Slovakia). To be able to make this comparison, authors of the article conducted the qualitative research. Used method was document and text analysis. To identify the relevant literary sources, systematic literature review followed by the traditional literature review, were used. Authors expected that there will be solid database of information available to the potential conductors of PPP projects. Also the way of its presentation was expected to be thoughtful and complex. Provision of information and methodical support in specified area can influence the final willingness of both sides, contractors and contracting authorities, to enter this project focused on provision of public services, traditionally provided by the public sector, by the private sector. The contribution is finalized using the method of synthesis that enables the authors to describe the main differences in ways of PPP projects information presentation. It was found that currently provided information and methodical support in the area of PPP projects administered by the authorities on the central level in selected countries can be described as insufficient. This finding contradicts the original expectations of the authors.
