La Nación / En América Latina, Paraguay es el país con mayor disponibilidad de datos abiertos en compras públicas

Paraguay leads Latin America and the Caribbean by achieving full coverage of open data in public procurement, surpassing its neighbors through structured publication across all phases of the process. This achievement stands out against the global trend, where although many countries share information, few meet basic openness standards that enable effective use beyond initial planning. The success is underpinned by the adoption of the Open Contracting Data Standard and a policy that guarantees universal and timely access. By prioritizing machine-readable formats, the country transforms administrative transparency into a real tool for accountability and efficient management. This case is relevant to the open data movement because it demonstrates that mere publication is not enough; the quality and structure of information are crucial. Paraguay serves as a demonstrative model of how technical standardization and political will can bridge the gap between the formal availability of data and its practical utility for civil society and citizen monitoring.
