Understanding emergency procurement procedures is crucial in situations where immediate action is required to address threats to public health, welfare, or safety. This includes making emergency procurements for equipment, supplies, services, construction items, or professional/consultant services under emergency conditions. The process involves maintaining competition as practicable, documenting emergency procurements, and ensuring transparency in contractor selection. Emergencies can arise from various conditions like natural disasters, health crises, or critical system failures.
