Summary/Abstract: The article presents the main results of a follow-up research on the administration and serviceprovision system in the Porto Metropolitan Area. The research group conducted an empirical studyin Porto just before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of the polycrisis, whichstarted in 2020, is analysed in this paper. The regulatory and organisational framework has not beensignificantly transformed as the result of the multiple crises and shocks, but the practice, and espe-cially the planning activities in the field of the services of general economic interest, have becomemore concentrated. The cooperation in the field of the services of general interests (human services)has remained relatively limited. Thus, the polycrisis is not just a temporary “excited state”, but it haspermanent impact on these systems.
