Spending for the year

What the Uruguayan state bought in 2017

In 2017 public procurement totalled $ 37.8 billion, up 40.8% on 2016 in current pesos. Inflation accounts for $ 1.6 billion of that: net of it, spending rose 34.8% in real terms. A single contract is 21.3% of the real change: SERVICIO DE RECEPCION Y ADMISION DE USUARIOS (Centro Departamental de Salud Pública de Colonia → DESA LIMITADA, $ 2 billion). Across comparable article codes (35% of the year), the change splits into $ -4.6 billion from unit prices and $ 5.9 billion from quantities — quantity dominates.

Every amount is converted at its own month's exchange rate and deflated by the BCU Unidad Indexada. The series measures purchasing published as open data, not the national budget.

From one year to the next

Each year's change, split into parts that add up exactly. The previous year is first re-priced to this year's price level; what remains is real change, and that is split between bodies entering or leaving the record and those present in both years.

The largest contracts of 2017

When a single contract is a large fraction of the year's change, the year did not rise — that contract did.
