Medium risk #04 Captivity

Supplier captivity

Near-exclusive relationships between an authority and a supplier.

A supplier takes almost all of its public revenue from one authority, and the authority gives it a large share of its budget. Such a relationship points to a closed local market that other suppliers have left.

Captive relationships by captivity band

Which stream the captive money came from

The three streams add up to the total value. One relationship can use several streams.

How it is computed

Computed on every award from 2018 to today, in all streams.

  1. The money from the three streams is added together: tenders, direct purchases and offline purchases.
  2. For tenders each winner's share is used, so a contract with two winners is not counted twice.
  3. The money is grouped by authority–supplier pair, in total and per stream.
  4. Each supplier's total public revenue and each authority's total spending are computed.
  5. The pair gets two percentages: how much of the supplier's revenue comes from this authority, and how much of the authority's budget reaches this supplier.
  6. The pair is flagged when both percentages pass the thresholds below and the supplier's revenue is large enough for the percentage to matter.

Thresholds

  • Captivity of at least 80% of the supplier's public revenue (the list can be widened down to 50%)
  • Captured budget of at least 30% of the authority's spending
  • Total public revenue of the supplier above 100,000 RON

The indicator measures where the money concentrates, not whether it was lawful. A captive relationship can also mean the local market has only one capable supplier.

The percentages cover the whole period in the data, not a year. One intense year looks the same as seven steady ones.
