Alternative financing and
delivery framework

Municipal
Asset
Partnership

Developed to help municipalities overcome barriers in financing and executing critical infrastructure projects, Graham’s Municipal Asset Partnership (MAP™) brings your essential projects online while you retain full control of your infrastructure.

 

Graham’s MAP framework is fully customizable for any size of municipal project. Our service offerings include internal financial and legal capabilities, construction expertise, design and operation services.

 
 

Sustainable utility financing

Keep your utilities AND finances strong

Preserve your municipal borrowing limit with a novel financing framework for any size of project. MAP introduces competitively priced project financing that keeps your cash flow strong.

 
 

Private financing, public ownership

It’s all yours, forever

Maintain control over every aspect of your rate-based infrastructure. We structure financing to ensure affordability and return all excess revenues to you. Control your asset, operations and surplus revenue while getting the support you need to deliver your project successfully.

 
 
 

Smart money without the wait

When you need it yesterday

Water, wastewater and other essential rate-based projects often sit on the back burner, lacking funding and attention. Don’t wait for traditional funding to take your project from a promise all the way to operation – Graham’s MAP can accelerate project delivery without compromising affordability, control or quality.
