Procurement during an energy emergency is about acting fast—but never outside the law.
With the declaration of a State of National Energy Emergency under EO 110, government agencies are expected to respond quickly to ensure the continuous supply of fuel, electricity, and essential services.
But here’s the key:
RA 12009 still governs procurement.
This explainer breaks down:
✔ What EO 110 really means
✔ What agencies can and cannot do
✔ The correct procurement approaches during emergencies
✔ Key rules on planning, modes, and advance payments
⚖️ Emergency enables action—not exemption.
⚡ Speed must go hand-in-hand with compliance.
