The Open Gov Guide
The Open Gov Guide is the go-to resource for open government reformers. The guide provides concrete recommendations for policy makers, civil society representatives, and more on how to apply open government principles to real-world challenges. Readers can also use the guide to learn more about how governments at the national and local level are putting these values into practice through OGP action plans and beyond.
Learn more about this policy area in the “Open Contracting” chapter of the Open Gov Guide.
Challenge Commitments
As part of the Open Gov Challenge, the OGP Support Unit would like to recognize some of the most inspiring commitments made by participants to date. Read more about these exciting reforms on open contracting below.
For a full list of Challenge commitments submitted by members, visit our Open Gov Challenge Commitment Tracker.
Open Contracting for Federal Infrastructure Projects
This commitment will address the lack of transparency and enhance CSO collaboration in the public procurement of federal infrastructure projects in Brazil. The government will apply open contracting principles to federal infrastructure projects by improving the public procurement portal and disclosing information for all projects.
Increase Citizen Monitoring of Public Infrastructure
There is limited access to reliable, complete and comparable data on contracts and infrastructure projects in Honduras. This commitment will make this data more accessible by publishing information on the entire project cycle. The government also aims to raise public awareness of this data to promote citizen monitoring and control of public infrastructure projects.
All Commitments by OGP Members
Explore all open contracting commitments from OGP members.
The following list reflects commitments submitted through national or local action plans. For more details, visit OGP’s Data Dashboard.
Filter the commitments according to three categories evaluated by the Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM): ambition, completion, and early results.
- Ambition: Beginning with 2020 action plans, the IRM assesses ambition using an indicator called “Potential for Results.” This indicator is an early marker of a commitment’s potential to yield meaningful results, based on how the commitment is articulated in the action plan and the state of play in the respective policy area.
- Completion: For each commitment, OGP’s Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) evaluates the degree to which the activities outlined in the commitment were implemented.
- Early Results: Beginning with 2021 action plans, the IRM assesses commitment results using an indicator called “Early Results”. This indicator compares the state of transparency, citizen participation, and/or public accountability before the action plan with the state at the end of the action plan.
