OpenContracting Data

Full house in Honduras (the latest @ocdata publisher) 🙌 Stakeholders are exploring how they can use this open data to secure better procurement outcomes (value for money, fairness, integrity, efficiency) 📷: @pane_juan

OCP is hiring! We are looking for a full time Lead Data Analyst to help us develop evidence-based approaches to improve the integrity, efficiency, fairness, and effectiveness of public contracting. Details here: open-contracting-partnership.forms.fm/lead-data-anal…

OCP has a new youtube channel! Please subscribe to get first look at our upcoming learning content, including: * how to use the OCDS mapping template * open contracting in low tech environments, and more! For now, check out my intro video here youtube.com/watch?v=gHbOkf… 🙈

A challenge of #opendata is idea that users will somehow figure out how to use it. #OpenContracting recommends Publication Policies. Join our next @ocdata community call to learn what publishers are putting in the policies & whether they are helping users bit.ly/2o6HDMs

Very excited to be kicking off our #opencontracting and @ocdata workshop for @npa_aop - connecting the brightest minds from #Afghanistan #Ukraine #Paraguay #France and the #UnitedStates in #Dubai

#PublicProcurement Marcin Baryn talking GDPR + Public Procurement and need for data protection ‘by design’ and ‘by default’ in procurement systems. Some interesting issues for @ocdata to discuss here: github.com/open-contracti… #privacy #opendata

#PublicProcurement @mihaly_fazekas talking about distinction between publication systems and transactional systems. We can only get to ‘perfect’ data quality with transactional systems. @ocdata designed around supporting that transition.

We’re working on an extension to OCDS to capture more Contracts Register information. Feedback welcome as we aim to finalise it in the next few days: #issuecomment-391383029" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/open-contracti… twitter.com/timdavies/stat…
