The Bangalore Agenda Task Force is meant to be a partnership between the citizens, corporates and the administrative agencies – the BMP, BDA, BMTC, BWSSB, BESCOM, BSNL, and Police. BATF has tried to bring together the key players comprising a "Private Public Partnership" (PPP) to enable synergy of effort and visibility of result.
Both BATF and the seven stakeholders believe in the citizen centred approach. However, given that the experience of PPP was new, the BATF commissioned a survey by an independent organisation SOFRES - MODE in December1999 and identified top citizen concerns. Following this, the first year focus has been largely on short term works capable of yielding quick visible results for greater confidence besides generating experience for expanding and consolidating on long term infrastructure projects from year. The initial task, therefore, for the BATF and the stakeholders was to sit together and agree on an approach and formulate projects and programmes.
