Auction Procedures and Competition in Public Services: The Case of Urban Public Transport in France and London (2009, background): “…performance impact of contractual choices in utilities have demonstrated that highpowered incentive regulatory schemes (e.g. fixed-price contracts) lead to higher cost efficiency than cost-plus contracts (see for instance Gagnepain, 1998; Gagnepain and Ivaldi, 2002; Perrigne, 2002; Piacenza, 2006).”
Do competition and ownership matter? Evidence from local public transport in Europe (2010, background): “Thus, previous evidence is country specific (Gagnepain and Ivaldi, 2002; Piacenza, 2006; Roy and Yvrande-Billon, 2007).”
Ownership, Contractual Practices and Technical Efficiency: The Case of Urban Public Transport in France (2007, background): “Furthermore, we would like to test the implicit proposition made in the empirical researches dealing with the French urban public transport which do not distinguish between gross cost and net cost contracts (Gagnepain 1998, Gagnepain & Ivaldi 2002, Kerstens 1996, 1999).”
Yardsticks on the road: Regulatory contracts and cost efficiency in the Norwegian bus industry (2003, background): “01. See also Dalen and Gomez-Lobo (1996, 1997) and Gagnepain and Ivaldi (1999) also study the effects of regulation on cost performance by transit firms.”
Regulatory Contracts and Cost Efficiency: Stochastic Frontier Evidence from the Italian Local Public Transport (2006, methodology): “To do this, we start from issues of a stochastic cost frontier model recently developed by Gagnepain and Ivaldi (2002a).18 We postpone to the following section the discussion concerning the statistical properties of the Battese and Coelli (1995) econometric model and the estimation procedure.”
The Impact of Regulation on Cost Efficiency: An Empirical Analysis of Wisconsin Water Utilities (2005, background): “More recently, Garcia and Thomas (2001) incorporate the output sold to final customers and the volume lost through leaks into a multi-product cost function.”
Testing Contract Theory: A Survey of Some Recent Work (2002, background): “Gagnepain and Ivaldi (2001) take the existing regulatory framework as given; they estimate the structural parameters of supply and demand and use them to simulate the optimal contracts.”
