Data quality

Summary

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

  • parties/identifier/id is set to null for some organizations. Therefore, organization names should instead be used to disambiguate organizations.
  • There are no differences between award.date and contract.dateSigned.

The dataset has minor issues that should not interfere with most uses. They include:

  • Award values incorrectly formatted as strings rather than numbers.
  • The data includes blank or empty fields and arrays, including:
    • awards/description (empty strings)
    • contracts/description (empty strings)
    • contracts/implementation/transactions (empty array)
    • planning/budget/description (empty strings)
    • tender/description (empty strings)
    • tender/items/unit/name (empty strings)
