The purpose of these arrangements is to facilitate and accelerate production of non-medical face coverings, to address the urgent requirement for these arising as a result of the Covid 19 pandemic. These leasing and supply arrangements do not fall within the scope of the PCR 2015. The Contracting Authority purchased the manufacturing equipment subject to separate contracts set out in contract award notices 2020 S/141-348171 and 2020 S/143-352966 .
