This timely book provides the first systematic analysis of global public procurement regulation and policy during and beyond the COVID-19 pandemic.Through both thematic chapters and national case studies, this book:Public procurement has been critical in delivering vital frontline public services both in the health sector and elsewhere, with procurement of ventilators, protective equipment and new hospitals all hitting the headlines. At the same time, procurers have faced the challenge of adjusting existing contracts to a new reality where, for example, some contracted services can no longer operate. Further, efficient and effective procurement will be essential, and not a luxury, in the economic recovery.With case studies on China, India, Italy, Singapore, the UK and the USA alongside those from Africa and Latin America, the book brings together leading academics and practitioners from across the world to examine these issues, providing an essential resource for policy makers, legislators, international organisations and academics.
