Portuguese term or phrase: a parcela do objecto que tenha maior expressão económica
This is part of a decree in Portugal:

" À contratação que tenha por objecto, simultaneamente, empreitada de obras públicas, fornecimento de bens e prestação de serviços e locação, aplica-se o regime previsto no presente Regulamento para a parcela do objecto que tenha maior expressão económica."

"a parcela" is the part of I'm having trouble with, as "installment" doesn't seem to fit here, but this is my try:

"The arrangements provided for by this Regulation for the installment of the subject matter having more economic significance is applicable for the contracts, simultaneously destined for public works, supply of goods and services and leases"
