Methodology

Records without a usable amount: 20. Missing classification fields are grouped as unspecified.

  • Source: DGCP open data API. datosabiertos.dgcp.gob.do
  • Period: processes published from March 27, 2015 to November 10, 2026. Months marked partial are incomplete.
  • Values are the estimates each institution publishes when opening a process. They are not awarded, contracted or paid amounts.
  • Values only add up processes in DOP. 382 processes in other currencies count as processes but are left out of value.
  • All published processes are counted, including those later cancelled or left without bidders. Award results are not published because our copy of a process status is not refreshed for its whole life.
  • "Open now" means processes in published status whose bid deadline has not passed as of our last reading. A later cancellation or extension can take time to show.
  • Kontramerica is a private, independent service, not a government body.
