Recital 13
(13) In the cases covered by this Regulation, the immediate award and performance of the contracts resulting from procurement procedures carried out for the purposes of this Regulation could be justified given the extreme urgency of the health crisis and resulting economic difficulties. Also, it could be necessary to make adjustments to the contracts that are strictly necessary to adapt them to the evolution of the public health emergency as well as to add contracting authorities during the performance of the contract. For that specific purpose, it is necessary to allow derogations from specific provisions of Regulation (EU, Euratom) 2018/1046 while duly documented by the contracting authority. As those derogations are introduced for the purpose of the emergency framework, they should be temporary and apply solely for the period of the activation of the measure referred to in Article 8 of this Regulation.
