France: Direction interministérielle du numérique et du système d'information et de communication de l'État (DINSIC)
The Ministry of the Economy, Finance and Recovery collects, processes and publishes data in various formats including OCDS.
The ministry collects data from the following data sources:
- Data from the DGFiP Market PES
- Data collected by the AIFE DUME API
- Data from the Achatpublic.com buyer profile made available via the AIFE DUME API

Data quality
Summary
The dataset has quality issues to take into account, notably:
- There are some releases with unlikely dates, including years 5021 and 2921
- There are a few organizations with non-unique identifiers due to data source issues, so it is not always possible to uniquely identify organizations.
- Release tags do not always reflect the data that is contained within releases
- The “decpUID” additional field is not documented

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.
