PublicBI EUPP Analytics: Limitations
​
-
Currently, the EU public procurement data used as the source data in the EUPP analytics solution is mostly based on the bulk data available in TED . In the future, additional data sources could be added.
​
-
As it is not mandatory to publish notices that are below EU threshold, many notices below EU threshold are not available in the source data.
​
-
Data only from January 2018 are considered. In the future, older data could be added.
​
-
The source data has several data quality issues (more than 300K data quality issues in files of a single month), to the extent that it cannot be used for meaningful analysis in various scenarios. Therefore, where possible, data has been enriched by deriving values from best possible sources. As the accuracy of such derived values cannot be guaranteed, users should keep this in mind before interpreting the information.
​
-
By cleaning and enriching the data, it has been brought up to a state where meaningful analysis is possible. However, it should be noted that data cleaning is an ongoing process and not all of the data quality issues have been fixed yet. In some cases, it is not feasible to fix the data quality issue, for example, where the contract award value is missing in the raw data, and it is not possible to derive from any of the value derivation rules, then the contract award value is not enriched but cleaned (set to 0 from null).​
