%X In the Netherlands, a sharp increase in the number of infrastructure programmes occurred. The Schiphol Amsterdam-Almere infrastructure programme consists of five projects, of which four with Public Private-Partnerships contracts. This programme is one of the largest Dutch infrastructure programmes
in history. Discovering how infrastructure programmes can effectively be managed can improve the
effectiveness of future programmes. This paper therefore aims to contribute to more effective
programme management. This is done through analysing programme management strategies and the
underlying mechanisms behind their effectiveness. Nine semi-structured interviews with project- and
programme managers in the SAA programme were conducted. This research found that a collection of
strategies is utilised in order to effectively contribute to the overarching programme goals of
accessibility and liveability. Effectiveness of strategies results especially from their collaborative
effects. Thereby, outcomes are developed that allow for achieving the programme goals. Future
programme managers can use insights gained on mechanisms behind strategy effectiveness to create
effective PPP infrastructure programmes.
