Integrity Pact recognized as best practice by the European Ombudsman

17/07/2019

The Integrity Pact initiative, a civic monitoring mechanism for public procurement supported by the European Commission and being implemented in Portugal since December 2018 by Transparency and Integrity (TI), in partnership with the Directorate-General for Cultural Heritage/Ministry of Culture, was distinguished in June 2019 with the European Ombudsman's “Good Administration Award 2019”, in the “Excellence in Open Administration” category.

The national implementation of the Integrity Pact is referred in the I National Action Plan for Open Administration as one of the activities inscribed in Commitment #8 - Enhancing Transparency in Public Procurement, which also aims, for example, at implementing the Open Contracting Data Standards (OCDS) on the public procurement portal (Portal BASE).

The I National Action Plan for Open Administration was published in December 2018 and is available here.
