Data quality

The dataset has quality issues to take into account, notably:

  • The original publication includes some broken JSON files excluded from the data registry.
  • Some tenders have the tender/tenderPeriod/startDate later than tender/tenderPeriod/endDate.
  • Unlikely dates like 1900-01-01T00:00:00-06:00 were found in:
    • release/tender/tenderPeriod/startDate
    • release/awards/date
    • release/contracts/dateSigned
  • There are discrepancies between the Organization’s identifiers and the array of parties.
  • There are duplicated identifiers in fields like:
    • releases/awards/items
    • releases/contracts/implementation/transactions
    • releases/tender/tenderers

Access data

This OCDS dataset is available for download in JSON, Excel or CSV format. You can download the data for contracting processes in a specific year or for all time.

JSON

Each contracting process is represented as one line of JSON text in the .jsonl file.

The .jsonl file is compressed using Gzip. Windows users need 7-Zip, WinRAR or WinZip to decompress the .gz file.

Excel

Each contracting process is represented as one row in the main sheet. Other sheets link to it via the _link_main column.

Excel files can have at most 1,048,576 rows. If a year is missing, it had too many rows. Download the CSV files, instead.

CSV

Each contracting process is represented as one row in the main.csv file. Other files link to it via the _link_main column.

The .csv files are archived using tar and compressed using Gzip. Windows users need 7-Zip, WinRAR or WinZip to decompress the .tar.gz file.
