We open up and transform public procurement to deliver fairer and better results for people, prosperity and the planet.
关于我们
Open Contracting Partnership aims to open up and transform public procurement to deliver fairer and better results for people, prosperity, and the planet. Our world runs on public contracts. One in three dollars spent by governments goes towards contracts with private companies to deliver public goods and services. It’s time to think different about public procurement and break open the trillions of dollars spent on contracts to unlock competition, innovation, and inclusion. We seek to bring together government, civil society and community organizations around improving procurement and open data. We create better value for money, fairer opportunities for business, and better results for people by helping ensure public money is spent openly, equitably, and effectively. We help our partners achieve measurable and lasting impact through locally-owned and inclusive public procurement reform. We support leaders from government, business, nonprofits, and journalists to co-design projects, and develop and implement open contracting strategies that work. We are proud to live in the regions that we serve. Our globally-distributed staff of approximately 29 people is based in thirteen countries across the Americas, Africa, Europe, and Asia.

#IWD: This International Women's Day, we join actors worldwide to #AccelerateAction to break down barriers for women. Women entrepreneurs own 1 in 3 SMEs, yet they are not receiving their fair share of government contracts due to a lack of access to information, access to credit, complex procedures and bias. Open contracting can change this. Proven strategies to empower women from countries like the Dominican Republic to Uganda include engaging potential vendors throughout the procurement process, building their capacity, simplifying bidding processes, tracking metrics and updating legislation to make sure reforms stick. ??

Last week Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine approved public investment management regulations that include medium-term investment planning, projects and programs preparation, sectoral and single pipeline formation, appraisal, funding allocation, implementation and monitoring. Finally - this is a framework which introduces clear governance and rules and sets procedures for DREAM - Digital Restoration EcoSystem for Accountable Management. We now have a task to implement everything in a system and capacitate all the users. First parts of the functionality will be coming in April already. This framework is based on UK 5 Case Model and recommendations from EIB JASPERS. Our team at Open Contracting Partnership worked closely with partners from Ministry of Economy of Ukraine Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, European Investment Bank (EIB) Tony Blair Institute for Global Change The World Bank The Reforms Delivery Office of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine European Commission local and international partners to achieve this milestone. Good foundation, but still space for future improvements, as we need to go with small steps considering capacity of local users. We continue to work with our friends and partners to enhance the approach and ensure that all parties have knowledge and tools - including hromadas, regions, ministries, international donors, private sector and civil society. As always many thanks to Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and British Embassy in Ukraine for all kinds of support!

Indeed, these “new” systems that agencies have been instructed to build already exist for the most part. And they are, admittedly, far from perfect. Organizations like Open Contracting Partnership have been advocating for years to improve them, not in service of an abstract and poorly defined goal of “efficiency,” but in order to improve the lives of people who rely on public services delivered by the federal government – from school meals to health services for veterans. In fact, we've done research to understand what government procurement technology is missing and (unsurprisingly) it isn't more systems and bureaucratic clutter, it's tech transformation that puts public outcomes first. Adding another layer to an already byzantine federal procurement system by building more tech will not only exacerbate existing problems but likely yield decision-making that is more, not less, opaque. The federal procurement system is in need of reform, but it’s because the services it needs to deliver are so critical to people’s lives and livelihoods. On the other hand, DOGE’s theory of government efficiency - if there is a coherent one - seems to proceed from the assumption that these services are disposable. ?? You can read our report here: https://lnkd.in/eTz2D3PE
NEW: President Trump executive order out tonight on the DOGE calls on federal agencies to build tech to tackle the administration's ‘Cost Efficiency Initiative’ What does it mean? In short, the Trump admin wants to: * Track every agency contract & grant payment, with written justification; * Centrally record approval for federally funded travel for conferences and other non-essential purposes; *Requires agency heads, within 30 days, to identify termination rights they have for existing leases and to consult with DOGE personnel and the General Services Administration to determine which ones should be ended.
