Data Location

Comments

The execution of the budget is presented in a financial reporting system: https://www.hacienda.gov.py/analytics/saw.dll?Go

This indicates that the data exists and is digital but it is aggregated.

Comments about procurement platform which is not considered enough:

• Quality of the Data (Content): 10, all information is available in great detail.
• Quality of Data (Structure): 6, the data format is PDF or Excel, which are not the most user-friendly formats.

All government spending must go through the e-procurement platform (source of spending data) except salaries which are exempt from it. The producrement phases are: planning, tender, award, contract, admemends, implementation. At the time of the review, all this information, except "implementation" (which contains the payment information) is available at the open data platfrom from the "Dirección Nacional de Contrataciones Públicas" which can be browsed and downloaded in bulk and via an HTTP API at https://www.contrataciones.gov.py/datos.

However, the individual payment information can still be queried at the provided link, and the DNPC is in the process of integrating this phase in their open data portal.

The information available on the web is constantly updated.
