The methodology, the investigation guide, open data and the legal framework.
PeBaniiNostri.ro is an independent platform that checks public procurement in Romania. It runs 10 risk indicators over every purchase to find patterns worth checking: slicing of direct purchases, purchases at the ceiling, new companies, supplier captivity, lack of competition, prices equal to the estimate and year-end spending.
The data is the open procurement data the Romanian Government publishes on data.gov.ro. It is processed automatically, with no editorial intervention. The platform is built for journalists, non-governmental organisations and citizens who want to see how public money is spent.
