Resumo(s)
Transparency and accountability are critical in public procurement processes. The
development of open-access visualization-driven web platforms provides an effective solution
to improve comprehension and interaction with procurement data. By converting complex
public procurement data into visual formats, the platform can make it easier for citizens to
understand and interpret the information. By offering open access to public procurement data,
the platform promotes government transparency and accountability through interactive
dashboards that provide both summaries and detailed views of how public funds are utilized.
This project presents the “HORKOS - Observatório de Contratação Pública Municipal”, an
open-access intuitive data visualization platform to help citizens to access and understand easily
Portuguese public procurement data at the municipal level. The dashboard offers four pages -
General-Analysis, Municipality-Oriented Analysis, Company-Oriented Analysis, and first level
of the Common Procurement Vocabulary (CPV) Analysis – that allow the user to gain a broad
understanding of key metrics and trends, conduct detailed municipal-level analyses, explore
data related to contracted companies, and understand procurement activities across various
CPV categories. By addressing the research question, "How can a visualization-driven web
platform significantly enhance the visibility of public procurement data and make analysis more
accessible to citizens?", the project shows that the platform’s user-centred design, combined
with strong data visualization capabilities, proved effective in providing citizens with
actionable insights, promoting good governance and public trust in procurement practices. The
platform can be accessed via this link.
