Direct purchases at the legal ceiling

Direct purchases whose value stops just below the legal ceiling. Free prices do not bunch under a limit; when many values stop exactly there, the amount was chosen for the ceiling rather than for the need. Computed on direct purchases only.

Flagged value by CPV group

The 10 largest CPV groups by value; the other 271 are added into a single tile.

Purchases by closeness to the ceiling

How it is computed

Computed on every direct purchase from 2018 to today.

Finalised direct purchases with a supplier (CUI) and a value are kept.
The ceiling is the one in force on the day of publication, for the contract type: until September 2022 it was half of today's.
The value is divided by the ceiling and expressed as a percentage.
The purchase is flagged when the percentage is between 95% and 100%.
Purchases above the ceiling are not counted: there a tender was mandatory anyway.
Each purchase is judged on its own; nothing is added together.

Ceilings exclude VAT (Legea 98/2016, art. 7(5)). Each purchase is compared with the ceiling in force on the day it was published. The ceilings and procedures, explained.

Flagged band: 95% – 100% of the applicable ceiling

Direct purchases only, each one on its own. Several small purchases to one supplier are indicator #01, slicing.

A value close to the ceiling is not in itself a breach: it can come from an honest estimate. The signal is repetition: the more of one authority's purchases stop just below the ceiling, the less chance explains it.
