Data quality

Summary

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

  • A sample set of contract statuses reflects discrepancies between the values of the contract.status and contract.statusDetails fields, suggesting that the contract status is not up to date. E.g. “status” : “active” and “statusDetails”: “TERMINATED”.
  • The values declared in awards.suppliers.name are not the same as the one declared in parties.name.

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
