Highlight: open contracting stories
Lithuania: “Public procurement is not merely a compliance-driven procedure. It has all the potential to create social value.”
Chile: “We emphasized that transparency would create a fairer and more trustworthy marketplace where honest companies could compete on equal terms.”
City of Portland: “The more vendors, the lower the prices, the better the quality, and the better for taxpayers.”
Brazil: “Strengthening the transparency and monitoring of medicine purchases is fundamental to guaranteeing the right to healthcare access.”
UK: “Having unique identifiers means we can track spend and contracting activity with contracting authorities and suppliers throughout the whole of the lifecycle.”
India: “The key to success for any solution is to collaborate, engage and co-create.”
Philippines: “Having independent monitoring by a community of independent researchers, investigative journalists and observers will be critical to assess whether the new procurement law is succeeding in its objectives and how it can be better implemented.”

We supported partnersdesign next-generation e-procurement systems, advance socially responsible procurement, strengthen open contracting data use, and amplify the voice of the open contracting community in discussions shaping the future EU public procurement directives.
Ukraine
We supported the Government of Ukraine to design and implement the country’s public investment management (PIM) reform with DREAM as its digital vehicle.
Latin America
We continued to advance open contracting as a practical tool for digital transformation, integrity, and inclusion.
USA
We worked at the state and city level to harness that power to drive economic opportunities, support stronger safety net technology, and respond to our community’s ask for better guidance on buying AI.
We provided strong programming and partner support in turbulent times. We helped design better procurement processes, build better e-procurement systems and digital solutions and strengthen data systems.
Our digital solutions help governments leverage data for better decision-making to achieve goals such as better planning and spending taxpayer dollars, increasing contracting with local small businesses, increasing transparency and accountability, and enabling community participation. We cover the full process from user research, mapping and engaging with stakeholders to service design and software development.
OCP runs the DREAM support office coordinating the project, which is working closely with the Ukrainian government and many civic and regional stakeholders. DREAM provides a single pipeline of projects from communities to funders, linking all stages of project preparation and delivery and supporting unprecedented transparency and accountability for some 14,000 projects under development, totaling UAH2 trillion (around $48 billion).
Our organization
We strive to fully disclose the source, amount and purpose of our funding. Our financial reporting and planning data are included as part of our Annual Reports.
Like others, we had to make difficult decisions to best deliver our mission in 2025. Despite taking a hit on our original ambitions for the year, we still achieved major wins and provided value to our community.
We are deeply grateful to our funders and partners for their continued support during these challenging times. Your trust, collaboration and investment in us help make government work better and transform lives globally through open contracting.
We are lucky to have a brilliant and committed team working with local reformers at the frontlines to make public procurement better for people and the planet.
