African Data Revolution: Survey
Powered by Open Data Census
All tenders and awards of the national/federal government aggregated by office. Do not consider procurement planning or other procurement phases. Open procurement data may enable fairer competition among companies, allow to detect fraud, as well as deliver better services for governments and citizens. The Index draws on work from the Open Contracting Partnership.

The National Treasury website gave links to the actual pyblished data on the Department of Government Printing Works' website. Having downloaded one of the publications, I then got more information about one more source of the data, the South African Government's website. | These are the original submitter's notes |
