New functionality is available on the electronic public procurement portal e-JN, which increases the transparency of the public procurement system in Slovenia. The new solution is made possible by the Skrinja system, a horizontal platform for business intelligence in state administration bodies, and the data is drawn from the public procurement portal. All data on public contracts awarded since 2017 are available to the public.Open Chest - a new analytical tool for displaying data on awarded public contracts in Slovenia | Author: Ministry of Public Administration
We developed the new functionality at the Ministry of Public Administration and the Ministry of Digital Transformation. Open Chest is a new analytical tool for displaying data on public contracts awarded in the Republic of Slovenia. It is possible to access data on public contracts awarded in the period from January 1, 2017 onwards.
Open Chest replaces the information-based Statist solution and provides a higher level of transparency of the public procurement system, enables the use of data for monitoring and planning the development of the public procurement system, and is a business intelligence tool for processing data and preparing analyzes that can be helpful to clients, providers and the general public. With this tool, it is possible to view the data of an individual order, as well as aggregate data on the orders placed in the Republic of Slovenia, which also enables an insight into the data on the use of public funds for all clients in the selected period.
With this, we ensured a comprehensive, direct and updated publication of data on awarded public contracts in real time (orders awarded up to the previous day are visible).
The control panel with visualizations enables, among other things, an overview of key indicators, monitoring of trends according to subject, legal basis, type of procedure, CPV code, service category, provider, title and country of headquarters. The user can easily adjust the data display to his needs, by clicking on the graph elements or by using additional filters. Each individual order that is included in the data is also displayed in a spreadsheet containing information from public procurement notices published on the Public Procurement Portal. For the purpose of in-depth research, data set export (in .csv or .xlsx format) is enabled for each object displayed on the screen (each spreadsheet or list), which allows the user to reuse the data.
This tool increases the transparency of the public procurement system and the transparency of public finances in Slovenia. The tool is not only important for better control over the use of public funds, but it can also be an analytical tool for decision-makers both at the system level and for individual public clients when devising procurement strategies and insight into awarded orders.
