| dc.description.abstract | 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. | pt_PT |
