Open Government Partnership New Zealand National Action Plan 2018-2020

Progress report for: July – September 2020

Commitment 12 progress report: September 2020

Commitment 12: Open Procurement

Lead agency: The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment

Objective: To publish the data on government-awarded contracts that is currently publicly available on the Government Electronic Tenders Service (GETS) as open data.

Ambition: It will be easy for people to find and access published GETS information for contracts awarded by government agencies that are subject to the Government Rules of Sourcing. This will increase the level of trust the public has in procurement as it will be possible to analyse what contracts government agencies are awarding, what the expected spend is and which businesses have been awarded contracts.

OGP values: Transparency and Accountability, Technology and Innovation
